10 Things

Sunday, June 28, 2015

I have been challenged by Megan Pastor of That Wasn't The Plan to share 10 things I love and 10 things I hate.  

So...here are 10 things I love (in no particular order)

1.  Cats on the Internet - I could spend hours looking at cats on the Internet - well, except for Grumpy Cat.  Grumpy Cat does not interest me.  However, cats in space are my particular favorites.  
2.  Ice Hockey  - I love hockey and I love hockey fights.  Don't know why but I do.  

3.  Therapy Dogs - Everyone should love therapy/service animals.  

4.  The Golden Girls.  

5.  Boat rides - I have loved riding on a boat for as long as I can remember.  I really need to make friends with someone who lives on the lake & has a boat.  

6.  Soft blankets -  The only thing that makes soft blankets better is sharing them with my cat.  

7.  My mom's chocolate chip cookies - she puts Rice Krispies in them. 

8.  Maids - I've never had one but I'm sure I'd like them.  

9.  Lint Rollers - when you share a house with 2 large dogs and a cat...you like lint rollers.

10.  Chickens wearing sweaters - What's not to love?  
10 things I hate. 

1.  My new glasses - Um, I really should have taken someone with me when I picked them out.  The cute, MUCH YOUNGER, sales associate said, "They look great on you."  And..."You can't see the blue".  I hate them.  


2.  Commercials - Commercials really annoy me.  Every once in a while you will come across a good commercial but most of the time they are just stupid.  I think they are directed at 12 year old boys.  And girls.

3.  Politics - I hate hearing about politics.

4.  Celebrities - Celebrities are annoying.

5.  Political Celebrities.

6.  Sirens - I am very sensitive to sirens.  Not only do they usually mean something bad has happened; they really hurt my ears.

7.  BBQ restaurants that have pigs as mascots -  That is just wrong.

8.  Loud cars & trucks - Yes, we hear you.  Why are you bringing attention to the fact that you have an insecurity that causes you to need extra attention?

9.  Plastic packaging - Nothing is more infuriating at the time as when you can't open something you have just bought.

10.   Grumpy Cat - It is hard to avoid Grumpy Cat when you are trying to look up cats on the Internet.

Tuesday, June 2, 2015

So Megan and I are full of great ideas.  Once, we were going to open up a boutique that specialized in designer clothes for your pet chicken.  If I remember correctly, we were going to call it "Just Us Chicks" and hire a chicken named Henrietta for our store mascot.
Then, we went to Food Truck Friday (which, by the way, was a blast) and we decided to open up our own Food Truck business.  I don't think we have named our Food Truck yet, but we did take a cooking class at the Salud Cooking School.  I'm pretty sure that we now know everything we need to know....

Wait a minute...I just went over to Megan's blog to steal some photos and I realized that she has already blogged about our cooking adventure.  So, forget this....you should read Megan's blog!
