A Meme
I've been tagged by Karen at Gberger. Usually I don't respond, but she's just so darn sweet and I want more people to read her blog (and the others that I've tagged). So here goes:
What are your current obsessions?
My daughter's seizure disorder, my blog and writing in general

Last thing you bought?
Pretty jewelry at a silent auction
What are you listening to?
the sound of boys squabbling over something stupid
Favourite kid's film
The Sound of Music.
Favourite Holiday Spots
Florence, Italy, any beach

Four words to describe you:
sharp-tongued, intense, strong, irritable

What do you wish for most?
that my daughter's seizures would stop and she'd be able to thrive

a burger from Umami and a beer
When did you last get tipsy?
I can't remember but I'm wondering if I need to drink more
Favourite ever film?

Care to share some wisdom?
Hmmm...I'm in no position for that, although I do remind people to laugh a lot.
If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?
I would stick to an exercise regime and lose some weight.
Rules of the meme:
Respond and rework. Answer questions on your own blog. Replace one question. Add one question. Tag 8 people (I'm tagging only five)
I tag:
laura at pieceofcake
denise at his big fat Indian wedding
claire at lifewithaseverelydisabledchild
tanya at Mighty Fond of You
beth at Switched at Birth
OMG...I live under a rock you know!! What am I supposed to do? DO I copy the picture? AHHHH! Stress!! Seriously...I don't know what this is! Help me!
ReplyDeleteHey Elizabeth! You crack me up! Have a happy week.-Jane
ReplyDeleteI am laughing at Claires comment, and wanting that coffee in Janes....
ReplyDeletethanks..this will be fun..I WILL get to it..but it is a big post party for me tonight...MY ONE YEAR OF BLOGGING ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!!!
I love to learn more about my blogging friends, and when I get these, it makes me think. Even found out more things that you & I have in common, & that's fun! Thank you for doing this.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! I like the sound of your book choices - I would thoroughly recommend Grace Notes, another Bernard MacLaverty - it's one of my favourites!
ReplyDeleteIrene (have come here a few times from Karen's blog)
I'm with Claire. Guess I need to emerge from the pine trees more often! Well, I've printed out the questions and your answers, and am taking them to bed with me to see if I can figure out what to do.
ReplyDeleteWhat? Sound of Music is a kid's show?! Seriously, it's the very first movie I saw in my life (I was a teenager). Best line is the nun who told Maria "you have to find your life." Took me a while, but I finally did. . .Thanks for the tag. We'll get through this.
