This week’s Monday Mission.
- If you were to go on a diet (not that you should, babe, you look marvelous), which of the “fad diets” sounds the most appealing to you?
Gawd, fad diets don’t work for me. Diets in general don’t work for me. The only thing that has reliably helped me lose weight was the cyst I had. - I only ask, because with the holidays coming up, there will be a lot more food in our house than usual. It tempts me. Maybe if I exercise I can loose some now, and eat then and have it all balance out. Do you get much exercise?
Yep. Not as much as I’d like, but yeah. I walk sometimes, exercise the horses, and practice Aikido. - When I was walking the other night, I noticed a rent house was being cleaned out by the landlord. Apparently the owners just took the essentials and left a lot of junk in the house. The owner had stacked piles of junk on the lawn for the sanitation collectors. But I noticed several things in that mess that maybe I could use (like a gas powered hedge trimmer). I may still go back some dark evening. Have you ever raided someone’s junk pile that was left out for the garbage truck? Or gone dumpster diving? What did you find?
No, I haven’t. Been tempted once or twice but I’m usually too lazy/busy to do anything. - Also in that same dumpster was the most awful shade of bright green carpet you’ve ever seen. Seriously, you wouldn’t believe it if I showed you (and I will try to get a photo). Do you have any memories of ugly carpeting in your home or someone else’s?
Hm… no, but the house we moved into when I was a baby (not the current one, but one in Concord) was painted Pepto-Bismol pink with red trim. {{{shudder}}} - As summer draws to a close, it means fewer outside chores. One I won’t miss at all is mowing the lawn! What summertime chores will you be glad to see go away for the winter months?
I don’t have any seasonal chores (Mom and Dad take care of the outside stuff) but I certainly won’t miss the weather! I love it cool and damp, me. :) - Of course, it is hard to mention fall without at least touching on football. Do you have a(ny) favorite football team(s)? Do you and your family root for the same teams to win?
Nup. Not interested in football. - I will be heading to Anaheim next month to stay a few days for a convention. It would be great to meet up with some Bloggers, but I just don’t know many out there. If you were to visit California, are there any Bloggers you’d like to meet up with? (And if you are in California, then who would you like to come see you!)
Hm… I would love to meet all those folks on my blogroll who don’t live in the area. Too many to list here! You guys know who you are.
