Miscellany Monday

I know it's late, but this is the first time I've settled down enough
 to link up with Carissa for
M I S C E L L A N Y   M O N D A Y. . .

[one]
I just got home from the girls' volleyball match in Cheraw.  Cheraw won the first game, and then Marlboro won the next three since they were playing best 3 out of 5.  Lawren and Mary Jo played really good.  I'm a proud mama to my very own Lady Dawgs!!
[two]
And while I'm on the subject of volleyball....
Some people at the game were so OBNOXIOUS!!  And they are parents of the players....and I really don't understand their behavior!  How can you talk so ugly and with such a negative attitude when your daughter and her friends are the ones on the court playing?!?  This talk was coming from both sides, but especially from one of the Marlboro fathers!  I was embarrassed for our whole community! 

[three]
Lawren and I stopped by Sonic on the way home from match to pick up a bite for supper.  Lawren got a huge cheeseburger and I ordered mozzarella sticks....and a foot long hot dog!  I NEVER order hot dogs!  It was pretty good but I sure don't want another for a good long while!

[four]
Laundry never ends, does it?  I feel like I'm caught in a constand cycle of washing, drying, folding, putting away....repeat!

[five]
The weather is finally cooler here in beautiful SC.  The thermometer read 40 degrees this morning when Chuck and I were going to school.  I'm not sure what the high for today was but it was a drastic difference from last week at this time. 
Welcome autumn!

[six]
I'm tired.....I'm calling it a night.
G'night all!

Meet Me on Monday

Meet Me On Monday
Questions:

1.  I can't stand when someone steals or lies!!!

2.  Do you do daily, weekly or monthly grocery shopping?  I shop for groceries when I need them, and sometimes that's every day!

3.  What kind of car do you drive?  I drive a 2006 Mercury Mariner (when I have the opportunity to drive...the girls drive it mostly!).

4.  Crunchy or soft tacos?  Soft!  Crunchy is not for me!!

5.  What's the habit you are proudest of breaking?  Well I was proud of not biting my fingernails, but in the past few days, I've bitten them all off!  :(  I'm hoping it was just a stress thing and they will grow back out again soon....

Saturday 9: Sleeping to Dream


1. Do you ever go to sleep to simply dream?  No...I just sleep because it is nighttime or because I'm tired.

2. When you’re having trouble staying awake, what are some things you do to make sure you don’t drift off to sleep?  I chew gum, walk around, or get some fresh air.

3. What’s most likely to cause you a prolonged period of not enough sleep?  Life in general...

4. When you’re going through a prolonged period of not enough sleep, what parts of your daily routine are likely to change, and how?  EVERYTHING changes because I cannot focus...

5. In what ways does your personality change when you go through a prolonged period of not enough sleep?   I'm ill and short-tempered... :(

6. Who in your life seems regularly to have not enough sleep?  One of my daughters...maybe it's not enough sleep, but maybe it's just being a teenager with a boyfriend.

7. When you're sleeping, do your closer friends tend to be male or female? Why do you think that is?  I'm not sure what you're asking, but I sleep with my husband (a male)...

8. If you could wake up tomorrow with a new talent, what would it be? I'd love to be able to play the piano..

9. In a dream, is your past something that you can go back to?  Yes...I love dreams when I get to see family members that are no longer with us, especially my mama.
