Re: question chain
this weekend's plans:
Friday: go bed shopping with DH after work
Saturday: pack for our move next weekend
Sunday: pack in the morning and Philly Knottie GTG in the afternoon
Question: what bad habit does your DH have that you cannot stand?
Answer: Two things. One, he never puts his dirty laundry in the freaking hamper. He always lays it on the floor right next to it. Hello?! You made it that far and you can't toss the clothes an extra foot into the basket?! Also, I always find his empty water bottles under his side of the bed. Gross!! I know they're empty and everything, but that's trash laying on our bedroom floor. Take it upstairs with you to the recycle bin next time you go up. He doesn't seem to get that!
Question: Tell me about your dream house. Is in the city or the country? How many bedrooms and bathrooms does it have? Would you like a pool, etc.
Great question! My dream house would be rustic, log cabinish, but with modern appliances. I would love to be in the woods and not have to worry about mowing, but I would still want sunlight to get through the trees. I would want enough bedrooms for us and our kids (not that we have any now) plus there to be a spare for guests. I would not want a pool. DH would want a garage with multiple bays plus space for a workshop. I would want a kitchen that is large but cozy where everyone wants to hang out. Maybe someday we'll get our dream!
Question: How do you and DH split the chores around the house?
I do the laundry - except that he folds the sheets. I also do the majority of the cooking, and he does the dishes, though I clear the table. We share dusting, he vacuums, and I mop. I also, for some reason, seem to be in charge of cleaning the bathroom.
Next question: If you could have removed anyone from your bridal party without seeming to be bridezilla, who would you have removed and why?
RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
You made my wedding day complete.
Oh, easy, SIL. She's actually my BIL's wife, but close enough. I thought she was going to be really supportive and excited about our wedding. She was such a PITA. She complained about the bridal shower, my bachelorette party, my MOH, the cost of the dress, the fact that she and her husband both had to buy/rent clothes for our wedding. The list goes on and on. We were close before DH and I got engaged, but I do not think she liked that we planned everything on our own and did not ask for input. I hope that we can get closer in the future, but I do not want her to think she has any control of my life.
Question: what is one thing you wish your DH would do to surprise you one day?
Answer: Anything!! DH is horrible with the surprises. I even had a good idea that he was going to propose when he did. At the same time, if he does try and plan anything as a surprise, I bug him until he gives in and tells me what it is. So I guess, someday a surprise that he could keep completely secret so that I don't even know to bug him about it, that would be awesome
Next Question: In five years, where will you and your hubby be? Living in the same place or a new place? Kids? Same jobs? New jobs?
Next Question: In five years, where will you and your hubby be? Living in the same place or a new place? Kids? Same jobs? New jobs?
I hope that we are in a single family home around the same area with a couple of kids. I hope our jobs are the same or I am staying home with the kiddos.
Question: what is one thing you wish you did when you were younger that you didn't do? why didn't you do it?
