1. Do you ever wear a rain coat when it rains? Nope, don't have one.

2. Do you rollerskate? Yes, but it's been a loooooong time since I've rollerskated, I've rollerbladed pretty recently though.

3. Do you clean the outside of your windows once a year, more than that or less than that? I don't ever do it. I would look pretty strange cleaning the outside of my windows at my apartment complex. I think they send someone to do it for us once a year maybe?

4. Do your kits meow when they want something? Oh goodness yes! Waffle hardly STOPS meowing!!!

5. Have you ever played golf? Sure haven't. Kind of funny since Daytona Beach has the LPGA and all of that so it was always very near me growing up. I've only played minigolf though. I don't think I have the patience for golf.

6. Do you use a calculator when at a grocery store, or just kind of add it in your head as you go? Add it in my head when I'm worried about it.

7. Do you have any nervous habits, such as biting your nails, etc?\\ I'm a really fidgety person. I can never sit still. I used to bite and pick at my nails all the time but Brendan has done a good job of breaking me of that.

8. If possible, do you see/call your parents at least once a week? I talk to my mom a few times a week, my grandma a few times a week, my dad once a week probably (he's usually not home when I call), and my brother once every other week. Usually can't see them weekly though.

9. Are you comfortable in a bathing suit in public? Oh honey if a bathing suit could be my regular outfit I'd be fine with it. I adore bathing suits.

10. Have you ever worked as a waitress or waiter? No way. I think I would end up pouring drinks on people.

11. When do you start thinking about Christmas gift buying? Usually in October.

12. What wakes you up in the morning? The sun or Waffle usually.

13. Do you have any chipmunks where you live? Not that I know of.

14. Do you speak with your neighbors? Only to say hi if we're passing through the apartment halls. My neighbors next to me and across are a bunch of guys, and the ones next to me are obnoxious so I try to avoid them.

15. Do you grill food outside much? We do at Brendan's house. I loooooooove food on the grill!!!!!!!!

16. What color is your bedspread? Red and gold with a bit of purple.

17. What nationality is/were your grandparents? Cherokee Indian, Welsh, and Polish mainly.

18. Do you wear contacts, glasses or nothing? [FONT=Verdana]None.[/font]

19. If we were all meeting for a big TCS picnic today, what is your favorite specialty dish that you would bring for us?? For a picnic? I'd bring this yummy fruit salad stuff my grandma always makes. It's delicious.

20. Any special vibes needed for this upcoming week? Nope...give them to someone else!

Hope everyone has a great week coming up and remember, if it's not so great, we're all here for you!

13. Do you have any chipmunks where you live? No. I don't think we have chipmunks in Switzerland.

14. Do you speak with your neighbors? Yes - whenever we cross each other outside the house or sometimes if we're invited round for drinks!

15. Do you grill food outside much? We grill a lot in summer and even if we don't grill, we tend to sit out on the terrace as often as possible to enjoy the view and the weather.

16. What color is your bedspread? My favourite quilt cover is pink and white.

17. What nationality is/were your grandparents? All my grandparents were from Ireland, although some of their families were from Scotland. 3 of them died before I was born, so I didn't know them. My gran died just a few years back.

18. Do you wear contacts, glasses or nothing? I wear contacts if I'm going out at night or doing sports. Otherwise I wear glasses.

19. If we were all meeting for a big TCS picnic today, what is your favorite specialty dish that you would bring for us?? I make a mean banoffi pie, so I guess I would make that

20. Any special vibes needed for this upcoming week? My project is going in front of the board of directors on Tuesday morning. Hope it will pass!!!

Have a good one everybody!

3. Do you clean the outside of your windows once a year, more than that or less than that? I clean them when I can - I just couldn't do them at the flat!

5. Have you ever played golf? Numerous people have tried to teach me - as they play! But I have never played it properly, as the golf clubs are SO expensive!


6. Do you use a calculator when at a grocery store, or just kind of add it in your head as you go? I used to use the calculator on my phone, now I just shop until I have everything on my list! (it's quicker and saves me from ending up in a LOT of pain!)

I am also sick, but I wouldn't say that was a habbit, just more of a reaction!

9. Are you comfortable in a bathing suit in public? I am very comfortable in bikinis! I am a bit of an exhibitionist really!

11. When do you start thinking about Christmas gift buying? Don't laugh, but I already have some! It actually prevents the panic at the end and you always have some good things! Spreads the cost too!

Nope! Only Alvin and his brothers, on the TV!

17. What nationality is/were your grandparents? My Grandad was from the UK and my Nana was essentially English, byut was born and grew up in India!


18. Do you wear contacts, glasses or nothing? I wear glasses all the time and contacts when I can afford them!

19. If we were all meeting for a big TCS picnic today, what is your favorite specialty dish that you would bring for us?? I would have to bring some hard boiled eggs! I don't think a picnic is a picnic without them!


20. Any special vibes needed for this upcoming week? Only to get my exhibition up and sorted! I'm just hoping - so much - that I can get it all done by Tuesday!


Lots of }}}VIBES{{{ going out to all that need them this week!

1. Do you ever wear a rain coat when it rains? No, just a hat.

2. Do you rollerskate? Oh yeah, I'm the roller queen baby! Why are other mothers so afraid of getting out there???

3. Do you clean the outside of your windows once a year, more than that or less than that? well more than once, I don't have many windows so I like to keep them very clean to see the sun shining in.

4. Do your kits meow when they want something? Uh yeah, 2 of them have their own language.

5. Have you ever played golf? Yeah but I totally SUCKED. I'd rather drive the beer cart.

6. Do you use a calculator when at a grocery store, or just kind of add it in your head as you go? I add it in my head.. a Great Feat in itself.

7. Do you have any nervous habits, such as biting your nails, etc ? Yup, I chew my nails to the quick, and when I'm really nervous, I talk too much.

8. If possible, do you see/call your parents at least once a week? Yeah I see them every day, mom watches my kid while I work. Ugh.

9. Are you comfortable in a bathing suit in public? Oh yeah, I take care of my body. I like string bikini's.

10. Have you ever work as a waitress or waiter? Nope. Just went right into secretarial slavery for really rich dudes.

11. When do you start thinking about Christmas gift buying? December 1.

12. What wakes you up in the morning? A lovely, beautiful long-haired chocolate colored cat named Snickers. He sleeps by my chest and when the birds start chirping... he nibbles my cheeks and lets me know it's "feeding time". (I do set an alarm but over the past months realize I do not need it)

13. Do you have any chipmunks where you live? Yeah, too many. They are evil little monsters, but they provide entertainment for 6 cats.

14. Do you speak with your neighbors? Yeah, the neighbors on one side of me are good friends. The neighbors on the other side, I certainly speak with, but I think they threw holy water on my yard the other night (they're a minister & minister's wife). So that sucks.

16. What color is your bedspread? Antique Gold, this velvet thing I bought from eBay; mainly for my cat's comfort.

Happy week to all.

Hope you all has a good week this past week. Amazing how quickly time goes by. Today is our lunch here in Ohio for TCS members, Okeefecl/Christy, Talon/Tracey, Amber/Grissom and myself. Look for pics later today!

Just saw your thread Susie! Looks like you all had a great time. Excellent!

1. Do you ever wear a rain coat when it rains?

I own an all-weather type coat that I wear maybe once a year. If I suspect it might rain, I usually have a nylon jacket with me -- except in summer, when I figure I'm not sugar and won't melt, so I don't bother.


2. Do you rollerskate?

Not since I was a kid -- remember the kind that attached to your shoes with clamps that you used a key to tighten? -- them.

3. Do you clean the outside of your windows once a year, more than that or less than that?

Our regular house cleaners do it on a rotation basis. I haven't washed a window in years.

4. Do your kits meow when they want something?

Depends what they want and how urgently, it's one of the ways they seek our attention.

5. Have you ever played golf?

Don't think I've even held a golf club. It's something I wouldn't mind taking up sometime, though.

6. Do you use a calculator when at a grocery store, or just kind of add it in your head as you go?

Neither. I do pay attention to things that will bump the total up, but don't try to have any pre-determined total in my head. I think the shopping application on my PDA which keeps all my lists for me has the capability to do that, but I haven't bothered to set it up.

7. Do you have any nervous habits, such as biting your nails, etc?\\

Not that I can think of.

8. If possible, do you see/call your parents at least once a week?

There's only my Dad. I see him three or four times a week. Rob talks to his Mum (and I join in sometimes if I'm around) about once a week, and we try to get over (to Vancouver Island) every few weeks to see her.

9. Are you comfortable in a bathing suit in public?

Nope. Too much upholstery.


10. Have you ever worked as a waitress or waiter?

No.

11. When do you start thinking about Christmas gift buying?

When the first thing suggests itself for someone, or late November, whichever comes first.

12. What wakes you up in the morning?

If I need to be wakened, it's the alarm. Usually, I'm awake when the radio comes on, ten minutes before the alarm.

13. Do you have any chipmunks where you live?

Some, but they're not anything like as plentiful as squirrels, which are EVERYwhere. (Not complaining! I love the little devils.)

14. Do you speak with your neighbors?

Occasionally. We're not close (socially) with any of them, but a word in passing isn't unusual.

15. Do you grill food outside much?

Once the weather is nice enough to leave the door open, the back porch becomes an extension of the kitchen. I BBQ two or three times a week or more, except during rainy spells, such as right now.

16. What color is your bedspread?

The comforter that serves as bedspread is a grey/beige/blue/white diamond pattern -- you've seen it lots of times as background in Cindy pics


17. What nationality is/were your grandparents?

All of my grandparents were Brits. My Mum's family came to Canada when she was seven; my Dad was born here.

18. Do you wear contacts, glasses or nothing?

Assuming I want to see anything, glasses.

19. If we were all meeting for a big TCS picnic today, what is your favorite specialty dish that you would bring for us??

I think I'd do a stuffed pork tenderloin, which is wonderful picnic party food, and best at room temperature, so can be done ahead.

20. Any special vibes needed for this upcoming week?

Nothing special this week. Anyone who needs extra vibes is welcome to mine!


Hope everyone has a great week coming up and remember, if it's not so great, we're all here for you! Scritches and kisses to all your kits!

And purrs and headbutts back! Thanks, Susie!
