Are you at home or at work?
What are you cooking for dinner?
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it?

What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now?
Re: Snow day quiz
Are you at home or at work? Home, school was delayed at first yesterday, anyway. I also have a conference to go to, so I wasn't going to be in school either way. Just waiting for the roads to melt/dry up a bit and I'm on my way to T-town.
What are you cooking for dinner? Not cooking, not home.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? No, but I had 31 goals for this year. I have met a few of the smaller ones already. They are meant to be constant improvement of self, not just a normal NY resolution.
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I flip-flop on the matter. I maintain that I cannot give an answer to this unless I actually have one. I might be one-and-done, I might want five so I can have big family gatherings. I don't know.
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) No, I do not have the time or patience. Regular work keeps me busy enough.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? Not really "itching" but I look forward to having the new flooring extended from the cat room down the hallway and into other bedrooms.Are you at home or at work? Just got to work 20 minutes ago. Thought they were going to cancel since Stillwater schools canceled...but nope. I'm a little miffed about it.
What are you cooking for dinner? We have leftover chicken and rice I'll heat up. JJ will probably eat soup and crackers.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? I had a few, and I'm doing good so far. The biggest one was getting my weight down, and I've worked out three days in a row.
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I want three, but H wants two. We're going to start trying for no. 2 this year and will discuss a third after we get pregnant and have no 2.
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) I don't think I have the patience for it. I probably wouldn't. I do, however, love that I have friends who sell those things.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? A pair of running shoes. I got most of the big things I wanted for Christmas, so all I really want/need is a pair of running shoes.Are you at home or at work? Home. I would likely be home whether there was "snow" or not.
What are you cooking for dinner? Haven't thought about it. We're going to my mom's tonight, so we'll probably eat there.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? Didn't make one
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I'm going to say 2. I'm pretty sure we're done after this baby is born.
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) I've thought about doing Pampered Chef before, just because I love their stuff and I want a discount.... but I probably won't ever do it.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? A house!Are you at home or at work? Home
yay for no school! (although I won't be too thrilled come May when we have to make it up!)
What are you cooking for dinner? No idea!
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? I didn't make one.
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? DH and I both want 2 kiddos (a boy and girl hopefully!). I don't want to have an only child, and I have just always thought 2 would be the right number (and plenty to handle!)
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) I don't think so. The only one I have slightly considered recently is Scentsy, but everyone sells it.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? Nothing I've just GOTTA have that I can think of right now!! I have been on the hunt for some new tall brown boots though...
Are you at home or at work? Home.
What are you cooking for dinner? I may make a tilapia dish. But we also might feel like getting out after being home all day, and I've been wanting to try this Pho place nearby. We'll see.
Did you have a NY Resolution? No.
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I think two is a good number for us. If we had perfect fertility and were independently wealthy, I'd say four. I always wanted a big family.
Would you ever join a home based business? No.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? I've been thinking more and more about getting an ereader. I resisted them at first, but a few of my students have kindles and I'm warming up to the idea.Are you at home or at work? Work-damn OSU had to open
What are you cooking for dinner? No clue, probably something with hamburger meat since it's thawed out.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? Yes, for the most part
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? 1, becaue I am not sure if I could handle anymore than that if the saying is true "your child will act like you but worse" Chad was a hellcat!
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) Yes, I used to sell Home & Garden but got out once it became Celebrating Home because of the changes that were unnecessary.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? New comforter; but can't find what I want in Cali King. I have a King bed but want one that hanges down more.
Are you at home or at work? Work. Boo.
What are you cooking for dinner? Probably leftover baked chicken, brown rice and some green beans.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? I unintentionally made one. I didn't drink coke for the first few days this year, then I though "Hmm, I haven't had Coke all year!" So it kind of became a goal. And I still haven't had any!
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I would love to have 3-4. It'll probably just depend on our financial situation. We want 2 for sure.
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) Nope. I don't really have time.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? New flooring for our bedrooms! They currently have ugly blue carpet. We either want to get new carpet or put laminate wood floors down.

What are you cooking for dinner? Beef tenderloin "chili" and grilled cheese sandwiches
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? Yes- read 26 books in the year (stolen from Critti.) I'm 5 down, 21 to go
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? When I was 23 we thought we wanted 2 for sure. Now that we're 31/32, we can't make up our minds. It's either 0 or 1. If I knew why we couldn't make up our minds, we'd have a more definite answer
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) Not a chance

What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? new cell phone
Are you at home or at work? I'm at home at the moment. I'm getting ready to go to town, though.
What are you cooking for dinner? I don't know if I am cooking anything or not. I am supposed to have class in Tulsa tonight, so if I end up going, I'm cooking nothing. If I don't, I don't know.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? Eh. I kind of did. And I've kind of stuck to it.
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I've always wanted a bunch. I'd say at least 4... but I'd be okay with more. H has always said just 2... but he's agreed to as many as we want as long as we're financially stable.
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) No. Probably not.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? A boat.
Are you at home or at work? I took a snow day... I got ready and everything, but couldn't get out of my neighborhood so I just stayed home. haha Dayum Prius.
What are you cooking for dinner? Not cooking anything. DH made loose meat hamburgers last night, so we'll be doing leftovers.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? I didn't make an official resolution. But we did get a membership at the Y and I'm LOVING the results I'm already seeing from Zumba, Body Pump, spin, and yoga classes... YAY!
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I have always wanted a large family... 3 would be my magic number, unless we fell into some money or something and could afford more. DH is determined to only have two. haha Part of my snowed-in itinerary for the day included watching a documentary from Rosie O'Donnell about families.... It made me want a billion kids.
Really though, it's interesting to hear the reasons why people decide to have kids, adopt, etc. I thought it was especially interesting (they mainly interviewed children) that most kids said, "Family means having people around you who love you. It's important that you have someone to take care of you when you get old." 
Out of the mouths of babes...
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) Probably not...
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? Hmmm... I would love to get some updated lighting equipment, and maybe a new lens or two.
Are you at home or at work? I had school and work today. The roads were not as bad in Lawton.
What are you cooking for dinner? Nothing. I have an event tonight and will be eating nachos.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? I did not make a resolution. I am working on setting some long term and short term goals though.
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? I want at least 2. We will just see how things go.
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) If I ever quit working to be a SAHM, I have thought about doing something on the side to make extra money.
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now? A house and bedroom furniture.
Are you at home or at work? I was at work, but we did open 2 hours late.
What are you cooking for dinner? Probably soup and grilled cheese. I don't think we have anything defrosted to cook.
Did you have a NY Resolution? Have you stuck to it? I didn't make any.
If you were to have children, how many would you want, and why? None. I don't know why, I just do.
Would you ever join a home based business? (Scentsy, Passion Parties, Homemade Gourmet, Arbonne, Mary Kay, etc.) Only if I was really desperate for extra money. I don't know enough people in town to sell to, plus I hate selling things (stupid school fundraisers as a kid).
What is ONE thing you're itching to buy right now?A bedroom set, but I can't find one I like.
