Copying Molly's Survey- Because I want to blog and have nothing else

1. What is your occupation? Wife, Mom, Grandma
2. What are the color of your socks now? white, I am often cold and socks help. I have been known to wear them to bed on really cold nights.
3. What are you listening to right now? Silence - except for a "shoot" coming from LaVar trying to wire something that is being hard to do.
4. What was the last thing you ate? Tamales made by Rowena
5. Can you drive a stick shift? Yes! and they are soooo fun. My mom taught me and that was so common then that it was necessary and I am very happy about that now.
6. If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Sienna, or Burnt Umber I just like those names.
7. Last person you spoke to on the phone? Rachel, we speak most days. I love cell phones and talking to the kids.... love it love it!
8. Do you like the person who sent this to you? AAAAh, no one sent it to me, I just copied Molly. Thanks Molly by the way.
9. How old are you today? 57 or 75 which ever, aye Tim?
10. Favorite drink? Berry Juice from Wal-Mart in the cooler section, or Pomergranet
11. What is your favorite sport to watch? Ice Skating but I like watching football (Only BYU with LaVar he knows all about them and tells me interesting things about the players and the coaches. He looks them up everyday and keeps current).
12. Have you ever dyed your hair? HA! yes, once and it turned out very bad, then I went for a perm, and it became so dry and brittle I just cut it off. I dyed it before our move to Hawaii where it faded out and I looked like a clown with TIGHT curls, short orange colored hair. It was truly awful.
13. Pets? I like to claim the neighborhood animals as mine. I like Grandma Cecile's cat Max, and Tyler's Megan, Alyssa's Quincy, Micah's Max, Rachel's cats and Jaim's Monster.... you get the picture.
14. Favorite food? I just love the tomatoe soup, "TACO SOUP" stuff Cecile taught us to make. I never tire of eating that. Tomato juice with chicken broth, water and spices, then you choose, avocado, various cheeses, sunflower seeds, green onions, corn chips and tomatoes if you wish. Great to have with guests because it stretches so far and people can make choices.
15. Last movie you watched? Bogus
16. Favorite Day of the year? Christmas, selected beautiful days in Spring after a hard winter there is nothing like a day filled with warmth, birds, sunshine and daffodils.
17. What do you do to vent anger? sing hymns, I have the luxury to go and sit in my bedroom and ponder and talk it out with myself until it makes sense. Decide what I am afraid of and how to solve that problem. One thing about being older, situations aren't so prevalent to get one angry, so it happens less frequently. Isn't that nice.
18. What was your favorite toy as a child? My baby dolls, and all that came with playing "house".
19. What is your favorite season? Spring! Is Christmas a season.
20. Hugs or kisses? depends on who, its from. Kisses from someone outside my family or very close friends is just weird. Kisses from LaVar, are great but so are his hugs. Hugs can just be wonderful from someone I care about. So many people are just so wonderful!
21. Cherry or Blueberry? Cherry especially juice, but fresh blueberries from Costco are our favorite treat for the drive home from Reno.
25. When was the last time you cried? When Tyler called and told us Tucker was born, no wait, this morning when they were singing "I'll Go Where You Want Me to Go" during Conference and I thought of all the times we have moved and that hymn was so pertinent.
30. Favorite Smells? Green Tea soap, well many fancy soaps.....
31. Who inspires you? Patricia Holland, most of the General Conference messages, specially Sister Julie Beck. My children often. LaVar, his mother, depends on what we are considering what one is inspired to do.
32. What are you afraid of? hummm that changes, but angry people still scare me, being careless, and hurting someone's feelings, being alone permenatly.
33. Plain, cheese or spicy hamburgers? Only IN-and- Out burgers but mostly I avoid them.
34. Favorite car? TOYOTA anything!
35. Favorite cat breed? Calico I think but Rachel's and Greg's cats are so cute what breed of cat are those?
36. Number of keys on your key ring? 4
37. How many years at your current job? 38 in June years and we will be moving.
38. Favorite day of the week? Saturday, LaVar is usually home and we get so much done and it always feels good to rest the next day.
39. How many states have you lived in? 10 didn't count multiple times in Utah, or Virginia.
40. Do you think you're funny? I love a good laugh and sometimes I make myself laugh, but that doesn't make me funny. I find humor in many things and laugh when many people wouldn't I think. I don't laugh out loud at church like some, somehow that just doesn't seem right, but I enjoy the funny things at church. I just smile.
41. Favorite past time? Reading your blogs, and talking on the phone. Wish this was more exotic but just everyday stuff is what I choose to do so I guess that would make it a favorite.

I love it when the daffodils start blooming too. I'm going to try to remember to sing hymns the next time I'm angry - that's a great idea. Wasn't conference wonderful? Thanks for sharing the survey.
