Almost the Wiikend

Aiming for the weekend.

Right on target!

Would You Pass The Test?

Over the 4th of July holiday weekend MSNBC had a few questions from the test that immigrants must take to become a citizen. I took the test and passed with an 85% (you have to get at least 85% to become a citizen) which I didn't think was to shabby. My Dad and brothers also took the test with my Dad being the only one who passed with a 95% score. So, I want to know how well you would do. It doesn't take very long and when your done come back here and post your score in the comments section. Come on, it will be fun! Start the test here.

Lucky You?

This idea, or challenge rather, was found on Bonnie and Jon's blog. And I love a good game and a good challenge, so I am in. Read the instructions below and let me know if you are too!



The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:


1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year. (Good thing its only February!)
4- You have no clue what it's going to be.It may be a story. It may be poetry, shoes, bags, or a little invention of my own! I may draw or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure! (It most likely won't be shoes, bags or anything that needs to be sewn.)
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. Believe me... it may blow your mind!


The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!


Game on!

Fun Game

I found this on Ashley's blog and commented, so I figured I best put it on mine or fear the wrath of the Internet Gods.

It's so fun to remember things about other people, and also read other's memories as well. Feel free to participate, or don't.

1. Add a comment on my blog. Leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you.

It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

Wii Master

I found out yesterday that Bonnie is a Wii Boxing champion. She took down all 6 of us, some twice, before finally being defeated. And the only reason I think she was defeated was because she had been playing non-stop for, oh, about 20 or so rounds. Well played Bonnie! Just stay away from the ears!
