Re: Spring Poll
1. What are you wearing this GORGEOUS spring day? Jeans, a long-sleeve t-shirt with an undershirt, and tennis shoes?I LOVE CASUAL FRIDAY!
2. What are you looking forward to most this spring? Longer days
3. What tops the list of home improvement projects this spring? I would love to say painting the kitchen and a new kitchen floor, but I will be happy with just keeping up with the lawn.
4. If money was no object, what would top the list of home improvement projects? A new kitchen, carpet in the master bedroom, a bathroom downstairs?these are all ?top of the list?
5. Favorite new spring accessory? Tank top undershirts, instead of my regular white t?s
6. Windows open or A/C on? A/C
7. Favorite thing about spring? The smell in the air.
8. Least favorite thing about spring? Mosquitoes, ants, and spiders
9. Most memorable spring break trip? Spring Break in Fort Lauderdale?I had a BLAST!
10. Plans for this weekend? (It's supposed to be gorgeous!) I will go to the Commissary with my Mom (who is visiting); hopefully I will be able to offer C some relief this weekend; and catch up on household chores. OH YEAH, I NEED A HAIRCUT DESPERATELY!
2. What are you looking forward to most this spring? Light in the evenings, playing on the deck, grilling out, outdoor activities with the kids.
3. What tops the list of home improvement projects this spring? Getting the exterior of the house painted, getting a new french door onto the deck, and getting the window in our bedroom repaired (it's been held up with a 2x4 all winter.
4. If money was not object, what would top the list of home improvement projects? We really need new carpet - but we won't do that until just before we move. And I'd love granite - but it seems silly since we are moving.
5. Favorite new spring accessory? I got a few new cardigans in springy colors and got a new shirt from Lands End.
6. Windows open or A/C on? a/c was on during the "heat wave" without it, it was 83 in upstairs. Too hot. Now the windows are open.
7. Favorite thing about spring? weather. Not too hot. Not too cold.
8. Least favorite thing about spring? thunderstorms at the kids bedtime. I LOVE thunderstorms. My kids hate them.
9. Most memorable spring break trip? My freshman year of college I went with my parents to NOLA. My best friend from childhood went to Tulane, so I ditched my parents and drank my way through the city with her and her college friends.
10. Plans for this weekend? (It's supposed to be gorgeous!) We leave tomorrow afternoon. Tonight we need to go buy the kids luggage, do laundry, do odds and ends to get ready to leave, and pack. Tomorrow night we'll be having dinner with friends in Ft. Lauderdale. YAY!
Will you still stay close to where you are now? We are practically neighbors and I know we are going to run into you one day, either at the peditricians or at Costco
.
LOL. We don't know. We'll probably stay in this general area - but we're debating moving closer in - Silver Spring/Takoma Park (small/older house/hit or miss schools but better commutes) or father out (Columbia/Ellicott City) - bigger/newer house, good schools, but would need to change jobs. We still have a couple of years to decide.
What are you wearing this GORGEOUS spring day? Work out pants and a maternity sweatshirt
What are you looking forward to most this spring? Going for walks with a baby in the stroller and the dogs walking (calmly) beside us.
What tops the list of home improvement projects this spring? Probably our deck. It needs to be sanded and refinished.
If money was not object, what would top the list of home improvement projects? A fence. I don't understand why people on the east coast don't fence in their yards. My dogs need a fence.
Favorite new spring accessory? My baby belly...or hopefully baby.
Windows open or A/C on? Windows if there is a breeze. A/C if it's humid.
