patterns

Dear QotD?ers,

Our TV is set up, but we still don't have any furniture in that room. Unless you count the boxes of frames and pictures and poster, which I don't. Because it's a new tv, it already has the built in HD whatever, so as soon as we get an antenna(sp?) I can get seriously excited about watching LOST and Dancing with the Stars in HD! (Right? that's how it works?)

A BBQ should have at least one sort of meat with bbq sauce, baked beans and potato salad. Everything else is a bonus. But watermellon makes a bbq cookout a summertime cookout.

Today's Question of the Day? is:
Stripes or Checks?

Love,

it goes good with sauce

Dear QotD?ers,

Today was a day of big purchases. We bought a big, flat tv and a grill. Being frugal engineers has put us into a very good savings-heavy financial status. We are very blessed to be in this situation. But it's still overwhelming and amazing to make big purchases. We have a real big TV and you can come over to watch it sometime!

I really don't mind the birthday singing at restaurants. I usually sing and clap along when someone across the room is getting serenaded. I will gladly endure apathetic singing for free dessert. But restaurants that make the birthday person stand up or wear a dumb hat or something else utterly embarrassing, I'm against that.

Today's Question of the Day? is:
What are your favorite foods to eat at a bbq cookout?

Love,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!

Dear QotD?ers,
This evening we watched Mighty Boosh. Today I learned that $16,000 can buy you a hypoallergenic mini-leopard. Other than that, it was a pretty unexciting day. I'm going to read a chapter or two of my current library book, maybe eat a cookie and go to bed.
However, tomorrow (Thursday) is a fantastic day because it's the birthday of one of my most favorite people. Mom! It's Mom's birthday! Happy Birthday Mom, I love you!

I'm related to a some teachers. Mom, Aunt Mary Lou, Mom-In-Law, Cousin Sarah, Justin's cousin... I also have a lot of friends that became teachers.

Today's Question of they Day? is:
Do you like resteraunt staff to sing at you when it's your birthday? Remember that you also get free dessert!

Love,
The Asker

THEY ARE EVERYWHERE

Dear QotD?ers,
Last weekend we put together our hurricane preperadeness food box. As you can see, we have fruit, chocolate, some sort of instant food and cans of soup and spaghettios, greenbeans and crackers! There have been no Gulf Coast threatening hurricanes this season, so let's keep it up! and then I'll eat those peanut M&Ms. OK, so today I learned that A LOT of you see A LOT of animals every day. This has left me feeling very sheltered and sad. Most days I see, .. maybe some birds, but it doesn't register. The past two days I've seen this mangy orangy dog walking down the street. This may be the one that is poopin' in our yard. Oh wait, I take it back. Every day I go to the chiropractor I see ducks in the pond behind the buiding. I saw over 30 ducks today! However, other than that I don't really see animals. I wish I had a cat. Or a friend with a cat that I could visit. sigh.

Today's Quesiton of the Day? is:
How many teachers are you related to?

aminals

Dear QotD?ers,

Remember this?

Well, now it looks like this!See the close up of all the shiney glass and pretty china? Yeah, it's pretty fantastic.
My heavenly duty would be to support the lighthearted enjoyment of hard science and math. Pi Day! Organic Chemistry jokes! This would also include watching over college students who have gone hysterical with studying.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
How many animals do you see, in person, on the average day?

Heaven: 5/5

Dear QotD?ers,

Tomorrow I'll share a picture of our beatufiul china cabinet with all the beautiful stuff in it. Arranging the stuff: 10 minutes. Cleaning all the glass: 18 hours. Maybe. It took A LONG TIME.

One thing I want to know is the first time Justin and I really met. I'm pretty certain it was at a spaceship playground when we were kids. My parents have friends close to where Justin grew up and we've BOTH been to that playground.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

Apparently everyone in Heaven has duties, some Earthly cause, great or small, to watch over or subtly influence. What is yours?


Love,
The Asker

Heaven: 4/5

Dear QotD?ers,

If you are reading this on Friday morning, you can go to this website and sign up for free chocolate. Or sign up to get a cupon for free chocolate, but isn't that just as good? Angela, it says it's redemable in 'US government installations' I don't know what that means for you.

I don't have a good answer for yesterday's question. Though I do agree with Justin that dinosaurs would be cool

Today's Question of the Day? is:
What questions (not covered in Heaven Orientation) would you like to ask God?

Love,
The Asker
