A whole lot of white on white....except the kitchen. I also like clean lines with a more minimalistic look. It is modern with warming wicker and plants.

Does the way it is decorated match your personality ?

YES....I am a neat freak and hate clutter. When I walk into a room, if it isn't neat, I get nervous and can't think. I even want my clothes hangers 1 inch apart. I throw away anything I am not using.
You would have a nervous breakdown at my house

Yesterday we found out the "shouldn't miss spots in your town"

So today we are being visited by the "Gotta see this Fairy"

So tell us which one famous tourist attraction or wonder of the world that you have NOT seen, that you would like her to take you to ?

Pikes Peak Hill Climb Races


Bonus Question:
They say you can pick your friends but not your family

So I have to ask do you have any family members that are "different", "odd"or "a little off" ?

Just my wife's side.

Are there family members that you avoid?

Just my wife's side.


Extra Credit Question:

How would you describe the way your house is decorated ?
(Traditional, Modern,Country, Eclectic, Worldly etc)

Hienz 57

Does the way it is decorated match your personality ?

Guess I should of read this question prior to answering this one. I would say it does, we like a bit of everything.


Just for Fun:

How far in advance of leaving for a Vacation do you start packing ?

About an hour.

What was the last "fad" you took part in ?

Pet rocks, but mine ran away.

Good afternoon! Been visiting friends out ot state for a few days, just got in!
Today's question:
Tell us which one famous attraction or wonder of the world that you have NOT seen, that you would like her to take you to? There are so many, but will just pick one. Always wanted to go to London.

Do you have any family members that are a little funny, odd, or just "off" a little bit. All of us in a humorous kind of way, myself leading the pack!

Are there any family members that you avoid? Not really.

Extra credit question: How do you describe your house is decorated? Like Sandhills Guru, Heinz 57, that's for sure!

Does the way it is decorated match your personality? Absolutely! To go along with thousands of tunes I decorate the hallway and stereo room with custom Fillmore West posters and I'm Old West in the living room. We won't talk about the bathroom. Kitchen? Well, six foot high pizza boxes in one corner, and other than that no comment on the kitchen!

Just for fun: How far in advance of leaving for a vacation do you start packing? About 15 minutes less than Sandhills Guru does!

What was the last "fad" you took part in?

Today's Question(s):
Yesterday we found out the "shouldn't miss spots in your town"

So today we are being visited by the "Gotta see this Fairy"

So tell us which one famous tourist attraction or wonder of the world that you have NOT seen, that you would like her to take you to ? Gosh, I'd love to see the pyraminds, I 'd love to see the Anne Frank House, I'd love to see Denali National Park, and I'd really love to be on a tropical island with white sand and aqua blue water.


Bonus Question:
They say you can pick your friends but not your family

So I have to ask do you have any family members that are "different", "odd"or "a little off" ? They all are lol!

Are there family members that you avoid? Yep, most of them!


Extra Credit Question:

How would you describe the way your house is decorated ?
(Traditional, Modern,Country, Eclectic, Worldly etc) Traditional I think.

Does the way it is decorated match your personality ? Yes it does


Just for Fun:

How far in advance of leaving for a Vacation do you start packing ? 2-3 days ahead of time and do it slowly, and make a good list.
What was the last "fad" you took part in ? Crocs?

Extra Credit Question:

(Traditional, Modern,Country, Eclectic, Worldly etc) Eclectic

Does the way it is decorated match your personality ? Very much so!

To add to my own answers decorations are:
Living room and downstairs bathroom = trains (we have a railroad switch in the bathroom)
Dining room = castles, dragons, swords, mythology (will eventually have a wall of bookshelves to transition it more into a library for all of my books)
Kitchen = Pepsi
Master bedroom and upstairs bath = tropical/beach (DH painted a mural of a beach/ocean scene on the tub surround)
Spare bedroom = jungle, safari, big cats, etc

This also answers the "odd" family member question... doesn't it.

I may have to have our son help me with that.... I'm not real sure how to do the whole picture thing.
The dining room is on hold with a remodel right now... too much going on to work on it (re-doing ceiling, and new sheet rock on walls, building shelves... the whole 9 yards!)

Only Monday - taking ages to catch up cause my phone keeps ringing!

So tell us which one famous tourist attraction or wonder of the world that you have NOT seen, that you would like her to take you to ? I'd love her to take me back in time to see the pyramids and sphinx (before they had as much damage as now)

So I have to ask do you have any family members that are "different", "odd"or "a little off" ? oh boy, do i ever

Are there family members that you avoid?well...yes

How would you describe the way your house is decorated ? messy and eclectic
(Traditional, Modern,Country, Eclectic, Worldly etc)

Does the way it is decorated match your personality ? i'd like to think the eclectic part does
How far in advance of leaving for a Vacation do you start packing ? the day before - maybe 2 days if it's a longer trip. Lists start well before that, though
What was the last "fad" you took part in ? trend isnt really a fad but it's the first thing i thought of...lower rise, wider legged jeans
