Meet Me on Monday!!

Welcome to the 38th edition of 
"Meet Me On Monday!"
 
Blogging  is a funny thing...we tell our most intimate thoughts for all to read  and yet most of the time I find myself sitting and wondering, "who is  this person!?"  I know them...but yet I don't know them!  I want  to know who the person is behind all those words so I thought of a great  way for all of us to "meet" each other!

Every Sunday Never Growing Old will post five get to know you  questions that you can copy and paste into your own Monday post and we  can all learn a little more about each and every one of us!!

"Its a great way to to meet new friends and for others to get to know me better....one Monday at a time!!!"....as quoted by the Chacogirl!! I will make this SIMPLE and FUN!!!

Since there are so many creative Meet Me On Monday posts, I have decided to use the Random picker to select one winner each week to be featured!

This weeks random winner is:

Donna at "The House on the Corner"




Java will add a linky so we can follow who participates and get to know them  better!!  Be sure to link the POST and not just your whole blog.


Meet Me On Monday


Questions:

1.  Do you have a fireplace in your home?
2.  Can you drive a stick shift?
3.  How many computers are in your home?
4.  Are your taxes done yet?  Do you do them yourself?
5.  What is your favorite meal of the day?
---------------------------------------------------------------
My Answers!

1.  Do you have a fireplace in your home?
     
       I do (pictured below) but we never use it!  I couldn't wait to have a house with one in it and we've been here for 18 years and have only used it a couple of times.  It is gas not wood which is even easier to use!




2.  Can you drive a stick shift?

        I can not!  I have never even tried it because all of our cars have always been automatic. 


    3.  How many computer are in your home? 

            I embarrassed to say 6!  We each have a laptop and then there is one in the office.


    4.  Are your taxes done yet?  Do you do them yourself?

          Ugh!  I do them myself...always have and started them but have yet to finish them!  I did Venti & Mocha's last weekend and now I really need to get ours done!


    5.  What is your favorite meal of the day?

          I LOVE lunch! It is my favorite meal of the day!  I think about what I'm having while I'm eating breakfast which would be my second choice!

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    6. eventually we may be a 6 computer household... right now hubby, the 12 year old and I each have a laptop of our own, but I want to upgrade mine and give this one to the 4 year old (and eventually the baby) ... I can see us eventually getting a desktop and plugging 5 laptops in too..

    15. House on the Corner is one of my favorite blogs! Yea for Donna! Whoever built your fireplace must have also built mine--they look to be identical, even down to the brick color. Thanks for hosting!

    19. LOVE the fireplace screen!

      Wish ours was gas. We'd have to get a bottle if we wanted to convert ours. Not worth it. And they're unsightly, not that it matters in my part of the area, but I don't want to look at them.

      Manual or stick shift driving is easy. I know you could do it!

    29. Dear Java,

      You've GOT to put that beautiful fireplace to use!

      In my last home, we had two fireplaces. We never lit them, BUT we used to buy these big, thick, white candles and fill the fireplace with them (they were thick enough that they could stand on their own without support and be safe). When you lit them, they gave the room the most BEAUTIFUL effect! It was so lovely and romantic - perhaps you could give that a try!

      Have a great week!

    30. Sorry I didn't make it Monday but I was praying I could afford my Wisdom teeth operation over the weekend as my head was in pain. I've worked something out with the dentist, paid my bill, got my drugs and should be ready for the next one.

      Take care.
