Monday Minute:Oct over?

Is the weekend really over? I can't believe that October
is almost over and this is the last week of it.
In forty one days I will be on a plane
heading to Colorado for a week long family vacation.
It seems like only yesterday I bought plane tickets
for this trip.
Time for some Monday Minute.
Won't you play along?

The questions.......


1.Have you ever been hospitalized? Other than giving birth to two babies, nope. I did go into the emergency room when I was having chest pains that could have been my gall bladder but after a barrage of tests, nothing was confirmed. I was sent home with some medicine and stayed away from spicy foods and it cleared up.

2.What’s the last bit of good news you received? That the cabin we will be staying in for 3 days while in Colorado will be free of charge. I am going to CO to visit my cousin and her family ( my aunt and uncle and other cousin as well) and staying with her and the cabin is owned by a family friend of hers. It is very generous of her friend to allow us to use it to stay in the mountains a few days. I can't wait to enjoy the weather, the company and freedom.

3. Who was your favorite teacher? I can't name just one. I had several that made an inspiration in my life like my 3rd grade teacher who gave me courage or my 6th grade teacher who showed me that it's okay to be different. Or my 7th and 8th grade art teacher who allowed my passion for art to come through or my 10th, 11th and 12th grade math teacher who let me shine in my favorite subject-math! Can you tell I loved school for what it was, learning. ?

4. Do you sing in the shower? Sometimes. I prefer to sing in the car, along with the radio. My kids laugh at me, they think I'm silly.

5. Describe the happiest day of your life. I could say the day my babies were born, but choosing one over the other is not possible because each of those days were blessings. One of the happiest days besides the obvious, was spending Easter Sunday this year. I had an amazing time watching both my children hunt for Easter eggs in my parents backyard. Little E was old enough to get the hang of egg hunting and watching he and Miss K laugh, run and enjoy the excitement of it was truly a fabulous day.
