Blog Tag---You're It!

I loved reading the answers Kathleen replyed to in when she was tagged. I hope mine are as enjoyable as hers.

1. If you have pets, do you see them as merely animals, or are they members of your family?

They are family members! We love our pets! We have more animals than people living in our house right now, so maybe our pets should answer this question about their people.

2. If you can have a dream to come true, what would it be?

That I could travel whenever and where ever I wanted.

3. What is the one thing most hated by you?

Bad drivers.

4. What would you do with a billion dollars?

I would travel and see the world!

5. What helps to pull you out of a bad mood?

Music--like the Beach Boys or The Bee Gees. It's hard to be in a bad mood when you're listening and singing to music.

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?

I think both are equal. In order to be loved, one has to love someone besides themself.

I brush and floss my teeth, go to the bathroom, set my electric blanket to preheat, say my prayers, and then fall asleep.

We met at BYU. We were neighbors and good friends for a few years before we started dating. It took about 3 dates before I knew we were actually dating.

9. If you could watch a creative person in the act of the creative process, who would it be?

Michaelangelo. I would love to see how he painted the Sistine Chapel. It is beautiful-- but what a pain in the neck it must have been!

13. Would you give up all junk food for the rest of your life for the opportunity to visit outer space?

Yes! I have already given up so much food... giving up what ever junk food I can eat shouldn't be a problem-- unless it is chocolate.. but I don't think of chocolate as junk food.

I would rather be married and poor.
