10. When was the last time you said, "yabba dabba do?" A moment ago, I'm guessing.
Never.

I am more of a "And I would’ve gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling kids!" from Scooby Doo or "Good Grief!" from Peanuts kind of a guy.

I would probably curse and get to getting rid of it.

2. Do you have a fire extinguisher in yourhome? Part II: Have you ever needed to use a fire extinguisher in your home?
Yes, we have one but no, have never had to use it.

3. Smoke alarms: How many do you have in your home? Part II: Do you change the batteries when the time is changed? Part III: Are any of your smoke detectors wired?
We have 5 smoke alarms, one in each bedroom, one in the living room and one in the downstairs hallway. I usually only change the batteries when they start chirping. They are all wired with battery backup, which is why I always forget to change the batteries until they start chirping. The wired ones are nice, gives a little bit of extra reassurance. But jeez they are a pain to change the batteries in and get hooked back up to the wires right. Another reason I don't change the batteries like I should. It is a royal pain.

4. Tuesday morning your alarm wakes you to this announcement: Rainy Tuesday today. Everyone is asked to hunker inside, do not, repeat, do not go to work. Describe your course of action.
Make coffee, tell one of the kids to take the dog out, ;-D go cuddle back in bed for a while with my husband and my coffee.

5. Are you one to line a public toilet seat with toilet paper before sitting down?
Oh gosh yes.

6. What special festivities, if any, do you plan on attending this summer?
Nada. Money too tight right now. I will count myself lucky if we can make it home to Nebraska to visit my family one time.

7. After cutting your toenails, are you one to examine the clipped nail before depositing it in the trash? Describe your nail if you will.
No detailed examination from me.

8. Do you suffer from headaches from time-to-time? If so, how do you find relief?
I get frequent headaches. Once in a while migraines. I alternate between ibuprofen and acetaminophin, usually it helps. If it is a migraine, though, nothing helps. Just have to ride it out. Had a prescription once for something, can't remember what it was, but it was sweet sweet relief. Should try to keep some of that on hand, get another prescription. But thankfully, my migraine tendencies have lessened and it has been a while since I had one. (Knock on wood)

9. Do you have any opinion about chipmunks? Any opinions you'd care to share with the board?
Fun little critters to watch scamper, especially up in the mountains.

10. When you dine at home, are you one to use a napkin with every meal? Do you use washable/cloth...what's the proper word?...not napkins...you know what I mean.
If we have paper napkins, which is not all the time, I do use them. I am more apt to grab a baby wipe. ;-D

1. Monday morning you crawl from bed, make your way to the bathroom, look in the mirror to discover you are now sporting a uni-brow, big, thick, black and curly end-to-end across your forehead. Describe your course of action. Back to bed, I'm obviously dreaming.

2. Do you have a fire extinguisher in your home? Part II: Have you ever needed to use a fire extinguisher in your home? 2-one for the front part of house and one for the back part of the house. Never had to use one at home.

3. Smoke alarms: How many do you have in your home? Part II: Do you change the batteries when the time is changed? Part III: Are any of your smoke detectors wired? 4-change them once a year on the Fall time change. All of them are battery powered.

4. Tuesday morning your alarm wakes you to this announcement: Rainy Tuesday today. Everyone is asked to hunker inside, do not, repeat, do not go to work. Describe your course of action. Lock and load, something is up. Have the un-dead finally made their move???

5. Are you one to line a public toilet seat with toilet paper before sitting down? Hold it till I get home.

6. What special festivities, if any, do you plan on attending this summer? Not big on attending festivals or large crowded events, never have been.

7. After cutting your toenails, are you one to examine the clipped nail before depositing it in the trash? Describe your nail if you will. Nah, just chunk them in the trash. I have old man toenails.

8. Do you suffer from headaches from time-to-time? If so, how do you find relief? Ibuprofen is the only thing I've ever taken that helps my headaches. Aspirin does nothing.

9. Do you have any opinion about chipmunks? Any opinions you'd care to share with the board? I don't mind chipmunks as long as they aren't scouts for the un-dead. If they are? Woe unto them:)

10. When you dine at home, are you one to use a napkin with every meal? Do you use washable/cloth...what's the proper word?...not napkins...you know what I mean. Usually tear off a handful of paper towels, I'm not very fancy.

Fix it immediately.

2. Do you have a fire extinguisher in your home? Part II: Have you ever needed to use a fire extinguisher in your home?
Yes but I've never needed to use it.

3. Smoke alarms: How many do you have in your home? Part II: Do you change the batteries when the time is changed? Part III: Are any of your smoke detectors wired?
There are three in this house. I haven't had to change the batteries yet, they're only a few months old. None wired.

4. Tuesday morning your alarm wakes you to this announcement: Rainy Tuesday today. Everyone is asked to hunker inside, do not, repeat, do not go to work. Describe your course of action.
Since I work in my house, I'd just do my job anyway. Spend the rest of my time watching the rain and reading.

5. Are you one to line a public toilet seat with toilet paper before sitting down?
Yep

King Kon 2016!!! I can't wait! No other plans yet.

I just throw them away...nothing to examine.

They are cute little things. I prefer not to hear the animated type sing.

I use paper towels when I eat anything. I have some cloth napkins but I save those in case I ever invite anyone for a special dinner.

So you just put new nail polish on over the old, too? What colors do you like best? ;;D
This time, I could see Ocean Blue, Vamp, Coral Reef, and Cajun Shrimp.....it was quite the rainbow!!

Well for me I've got that Minute-Man Blue, you know, patriotic and all, then we have some Dover White...this wasn't polish but some semi-gloss Sherwin Williams was doing some trim widd. Have a speckled Golden Oak mixed in with some polyurethane...that one, I tell ya, that one lasted some time so if you're ever in the market just pm me and I'll send you my recipe. Too, there's some rather vulgar shades of dirt, you know, between all the layers. Working man.

1. Monday morning you crawl from bed, make your way to the bathroom, look in the mirror to discover you are now sporting a uni-brow, big, thick, black and curly end-to-end across your forehead. Describe your course of action.

I would take a few pictures and post them to Facebook before I fixed it.

2. Do you have a fire extinguisher in your home? Part II: Have you ever needed to use a fire extinguisher in your home?

I live in a group home, so we have several. I have never had to use one.

3. Smoke alarms: How many do you have in your home? Part II: Do you change the batteries when the time is changed? Part III: Are any of your smoke detectors wired?

Same as number 2. We have several. The maintenance guy is in charge of maintaining them, I have no idea if they're wired or not.

4. Tuesday morning your alarm wakes you to this announcement: Rainy Tuesday today. Everyone is asked to hunker inside, do not, repeat, do not go to work. Describe your course of action.

I love the rain and I work from home, so I would still go to work and probably go out to the patio and enjoy the rain.

5. Are you one to line a public toilet seat with toilet paper before sitting down?

As long as it looks clean I'm good.

6. What special festivities, if any, do you plan on attending this summer?

Endless Shrimp at Red Lobster, although I guess technically it'd be Fall by then.

7. After cutting your toenails, are you one to examine the clipped nail before depositing it in the trash? Describe your nail if you will.

Maybe just a little to see how long I let them get, then I toss them.

8. Do you suffer from headaches from time-to-time? If so, how do you find relief?

Headaches not so much anymore, I am more prone to backaches. I take OTC Ibuprofen.

9. Do you have any opinion about chipmunks? Any opinions you'd care to share with the board?

I like the old animated ones, the "new" movie ones not so much. The actual real live ones I'd like to see.

10. When you dine at home, are you one to use a napkin with every meal? Do you use washable/cloth...what's the proper word?...not napkins...you know what I mean.

I use napkins almost at every meal.
