    They can be funny, but sometimes it's uncomfortable when you see your friends' kids watching them...

    What scares you the most?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Same thing but I should add seeing them in danger and not thinking I could stop it.

    If you were going to be ship wrecked on a desert island what is the one thing you would want with you?

    My split second, gut reaction to this question was "my kindle, loaded with a whole lot of books", but then where would I plug it in when the battery ran out? I guess I should pack a solar charger as well.

    More practically speaking, would probably be the water filtration system I take hiking.

    What is the one thing you need to pack when you travel?

    An acre, filled with trees of all kinds, saskatoon,raspberry and lilac bushes, a thousand sq ft garden, two green houses, one very large lawn, flower beds, my four bin compost, ants(lots of those) and wildlife trails from the deer, moose and bears.

    What is the highest number of neighbours can you see from any point in your yard?

    If I stand on the second floor balcony way to many. Standing in my yard 5 houses.

    If you could evict a specific neighbor from your neighborhood just because would you and why?

    Yes, the list is long but the highlights include:
    1. Uses a gas powered pressure washer to wash his truck every night(this takes him about an hour)
    2. Has a different how small is my penis diesel truck that he idles for about half an hour every week. I've only seen him actually drive it twice in three years.
    3. Has had so many vehicles idling in his yard I have had to go inside to escape the fumes.
    4. Rides his quad around his 1/4 acre parcel of yard.
    5. Likes to burn plastic in the backyard.
    6. Is a douche who built his fence on my side of the property line, not on the property line.


    Do your neighbours make you want to live in the middle of nowhere?

    No, most of my neighbors are nice.
    I would get a property assessor out to mark the property line and sue your neighbor. Here, if you don't do anything after a certain period of time, they will own your property.

    What food do you despise?

    Unfortunately, not many! Oysters (texture thing) and brussel sprouts (I tried them, and I just can't do it).

    What is your favorite summertime food?

    No, not hosting any cookouts on the 4th. Planning on relaxing, unplugged, in the North Carolina mountains that weekend.

    Do you have any exciting plans for this weekend?

    The property line was already marked, from an official survey, he left it there clear as day as he put his fence on my side of said marker. Tried to talk to him about it, he declined too make any changes, tried with the town but they said they couldn't do anything and if I wanted the fence moved I would have to initiate legal action. If I didn't have the acre and was trapped in some small square in the city I probably would have fought it. But as is I will just settle for disliking the douchebag.

    Nope. By the time I get home from the gym it will be time to become a vegetable for the night.

    Are you a big go out on the weekend person?

    I'm out much of the weekend but not at clubs or anything.

    Is your house a mess right now?

    Sadly, yes. Been coordinating a rummage sale for this past week, pulling 12-14 hour days between work and the rummage sale. I have not been coordinating my house this week. That's next on the list.

    If you still have toys from your childhood, which ones do you have? (I ask this as my husband has childhood Star Wars toys on the book case in our bedroom.)

    I don't really have any childhood toys but I do have some childhood/teen books that I've kept. My mom is still the keeper of the toys; well, the keeper of all that childhood stuff. She has downloaded some onto me but knows that I'm not particularly sentimental so would probably chuck most of it. I do still have the collar and a coat from my childhood dog.

    What do you still have from childhood?

    what was your favorite toy as a child ?

    deadendp Northeast Ohio Posts: 10,434
    Weebles. The egg shaped variety that you would be able to swallow. I had a bunch of sets of Weebles. The circus, Mickey Mouse Playhouse, the submarine, the treehouse and the castle. (There were probably more.) Years ago, my husband found a Weeble that looks just like me and was made the same year I was born. Very sweet of him.

    Same question.
