What is kitties favorite toy that keeps getting destroyed because he/she plays with it so much? Oh, Tibby will play with anything and Molly has a PASSION for feathers! So if my SS comes from somewhere with big birds, Molly would love some feathers!

Here are some more of my likes!
People who are requested for info can use these too!


What are your favorite scents and what totally turns you off? I love lavender! I don't think there are any scents that I particularly dislike!

How do you pamper yourself at home for 'me' time? What things can you never get enough of because you use them up so fast? I don't get much 'me' time, but I do like to have a bubble bath!


If it gets cold where you live, how do you keep warm when you go outside?
Do you wear hats or scarves? I wear hats and scarves (have bobbly gloves so that I can use my stick still!) I love funky hats and ear flap hats!

Okay, lets say I'm crafty and can make you a scarf (if you wear them).... what colors in yarn would you want?? Rainbow!


What do you think of getting something that's used, but is still in really good condition? I always buy used stuff for myself, so I'd be perfectly happy!

If you could pick something for your SS to include in your christmas package, what would it be? Something relating to their area!
Would you like a homemade gift?? Yes, I love homemade things!

Do you like to travel? yes, but I don't get much chance these days!
Do you enjoy art from other cultures? Yes!
Food? Oh yeah!

Do you prefer old fashioned things or modern things? Either, but probably more towards the modern!
1.how would you describe your personal style? Hippy/excentric!


2.when you look around at the things you own,
is there a picky/specific or eclectic mix? VERY eclectic!


3.is there a particular time period in history that interests you? Not really!

4.please list the total amount of animals in your home
(include all animals except husbands and children) 2 kitties, Tibby and Molly and three gold fish!

5.do you prefer things that can be hung on a wall, or things that
can be displayed on a shelf/mantle/etc or something edible? Probably edible or shelf, as I'm not allowed to hang of lean things on the walls!


6. what is something you always get too much of during the holidays? Alcohol!

7. what is something you wish you got more of during the holidays? Alcohol!

I would be paranoid thinking that my person was going to get NOTHING for Christmas! My package will be in the mail early! My person will probably be the first to get theirs!
