Have fun!

1. What happens to the mail at your house?

A lot of it will go in the recycling box.  Most of our bills are now online so we don’t get a lot of mail.  I sort it and leave hubby’s on his desk, any that we still get for the kids (and yes we do even if they have all moved out now!) stays on the stairs until I next get a chance to hand it over and the rest I deal with.  Sometimes on the day but not always.

2. Something you always splurge on? Any guilt associated with the splurge?
Getting my hair done, as in coloured and highlighted.  It’s expensive but I think I’m worth it! lol

3. There are many, but what are two important questions you think every bride and groom should ask/answer before they plan their walk down the aisle?

For me one of the most important ones is “How do you feel about children?” and then of course follow ons from that as in e.g. “what if we can’t have them”

4. What's the best advice your father ever gave you?
Sadly I lost my Dad when I was 22.  I don’t remember a time when he sat me down and gave me advice but he led by example and I think the best thing I picked up from him and my Mum was never sleep on an argument.  Things left to fester don’t heal too well.

5. Your favourite movie where a father features heavily in the storyline?

Hmm not exactly a favourite but Kramer v Kramer certainly fits that bill but I also enjoyed Regarding  Henry.

6. Insert your own random thought here.

I swear that time passes more quickly as you get older.  I’m finding it hard to fit everything in at the moment.  I’m grateful for all the comments I get on my blogs.  I’m trying to keep up with the blogs I usually follow but am struggling to interact – I wish Blogger had a “Like” button so you’d at least know I’d dropped by.  I’d also like them to fix the e-mail notifications of comments.  Made it so much easier to respond to comments on whatever device I’m using at the time for e-mail.  Checking them out directly on my blog is something I usually only do on my laptop so it’s not happening as much as I’d like.  Ha a random thought?  Sounds more like a muddled rant or a Wendy’s Waffle.
