Cheers to all us thieves!

Sunday Stealing: The Double Stealing Meme

1. If you could turn back the hands of time to correct one wrongdoing, what event would you choose and why?
I would go back in time to correct something I didn't do...Tell Frank more that I trusted him. I never got the chance...he was killed in action during the Viet Nam War. I oftentimes think of him....after all these years, I still miss his presence.


2. Are you one for tradition? If so, what traditions do you strongly believe in? If not, what makes tradition hypocritical?
Mostly, my traditional decorating for holidays [even tho it's just two of us at home now]. I believe in a cheerful home, and putting out decorations makes me and Bud thankful to see another Christmas, Halloween, 4th, St. Pat's Day, etc. etc. -- during the seasons, even now, when both our kids now have left and it's us two for whom I decorate. Oh and I still slave spend hours in the kitchen cooking and preparing a large turkey dinner for us on Thanksgiving too....so the tradition, is observing holidays!!


3. You were taking part in an event and you had to crossplay, who would you crossplay as and why?
I think you mean cosplay? I'd never heard of crossplay before. But if it's cosplay then I'd probably do something Shakespearean if the event was in that timeframe. If it was something that was general, I'd probably do a mime type clown...or perhaps some lady in a blacksmith shop, pounding on hot horseshoes...again, it depends on the event!!!! And the 'why' part of the question is too general also, that also depends on the event. It would be for costume parties, or maybe a charitable event...or working to help educate children.


4. If you only had one day left to live, how would you spend your last day? Would you be tempted to live fatally if you knew you were to die the next day, and if so, what extreme measures would you take?
A day like any other day. Seriously. Sit, relax, and enjoy the last few hours of life stress free. Watch the sky, the clouds, listen to the birds singing, smell the flowers and view their beauty. Things like that. Oh...I may also make sure I finish the book I'm reading. I'd hate to not know the end of the plot in the story!!!


5. What are your top five sinful materialistic items, ones you'd expect from others including those closest to you? Why are each in the position they are in?
TONS of shoes and clothes. Jewelry. Witch collection. Santa collection. Stuffed animals. I don't see them tho as sinful...but the ARE materialistic.


6. I am...Hootin' Anni, and I'm a blogaholic! [everyone say "Hi Hootin'!!"]

7. I feel...with my hands

8. I see...with my eyes [sometimes with the help of corrective lenses]

9. I need...mo' money!

10. I love...Bud and my kids and grandkids [not to forget my two fur babies, Tahoe and Winston]

11. I wish...for #9.

12. I think...I'm about done with this. #12 is closer to 'done' that #1 was when I started.

13. I hear...the air conditioner humming right now.

14. I crave...pizza...any time of the day, any week in the year!

15. I fear...heights and water [yet I love air travel]

16. I hope. . .you enjoyed reading my booty I stole.

PHOTO HUNT 2009 THEMES


GARBAGE

The prompt this week for Photo Hunt is garbage. GARBAGE? Ohhhhh, I so wanted to go to the neighborhood Video Store and go in the 'back room' to get photos of THAT kinda garbage, but alas, not my forté------not even for the sake of blogging. So, y'all will have to settle for this photo....



[and look closer, garbage flew out...onto the street as the city's crew drove by --a huge flattened piece of carboard/box. Geez. Of course, with my issues, I had to walk over with my latex surgical gloves [that I use for staining and painting things] and pick it up. Who KNOWS where it's been.] rofl

...and then, to change the gawd awful subject...I took a walk away from the rancid smells of said garbage, to breathe in the fresh salt air with --------



<><><>


----a walk on the beach...I'm waving to y'all while combing the beach for shells, trying to keep my white bibs from getting too soaked and my pink sandals from getting too sandy. LOL



[but, think about it, that garbage on the street just may have been cleaner than the sea, right? Oh well, if the birds and sea life can live in it...I can survive a few hours of it myself. Ahhhhhhhh, blissful]
