I'd like to apologize for post #10, After reading it, I realize it was stupid and 15-year old boy-ish to boot. Sometimes my heart writes instead of my brain. This was one of those times. No excuse. Cry pardon Tet members.
No apology, ghost19 . The heart speaks- we are Ka-Tet and we understand. This is family, and you are part of it!

Hey you! :m_joy::m_curious:

You changed question # 10!

I like your answer, by the way :wink2::smile::blush:

I have a good answer for question # 1:

Yes I do use Post-It notes

- after using your Post-It note take the sticky part and rub it up and down, back and forth between your computer keys - it picks up lint and such;

then turn your keyboard upside down and hit it lightly a couple of times on the desk - that will dislodge most of the "gunk"

I try to do this almost every day at work as there seems to be a lot of weird stuff (like crumbs etc.) that fall into my keyboard

1. Do you use Post-It notes? For what do you use them most?

Yep, all the time. Mostly at work, sometimes as notes for my family. Currently hubby and I are taking turns hiding one for each other that says BOO! Never a dull minute at my house!:rolleyes:


2. Do you think freckles are attractive?

I think freckles are cute.


3. Do you ever count your steps when you walk? Or do you count anything else on a regular basis?

Not really, but I'm not close to OCD. I'm more on the Pigpen from Peanuts side of the spectrum!


4. Tell something you did, or saw, or happened to you recently, that reminded you of an SKMB member. Be specific.

Nothing comes to mind at the moment, but I often think of y'all.

All of y'all have something that reminds me of you! (((SKMB)))

5. If Abe Lincoln and George Washington were living in the US today, what would they think of our government?

Haven't watch in a while, but this sums it up nicely. Good one twiggymarie. Ever watched Sleepy Hollow? Crane's reactions on there pretty much sum up what I think they'd think.

6. Fill in the blank: Things just aren't the same in today's world. I remember when_

Don't get me started. I miss the days when they only time you got "News" was between 6 and 7pm in front of the TV with the family.

My hubby.

8. What is your favorite app on your phone?

Pinterest!!

Yeah I felt pretty naughty changing it. But I wasn't in the mood to miss someone. :devilish:

I have got to try that! My keyboards grow mulch it seems. Well, at work...
