I’ve seen this floating around Blogland, so I thought I would join in. I don’t know that anyone cares about these silly questions, but it is fun to fill out.
ABC’s of me
A: Age: Creeping up on the big 30.
B: Bed size: Queen. I would like a King, but I love our bedroom furniture. It’s Ethan Allen, but discontinued so it’s not like we could get a larger size very easily.
C. Chore you hate: Probably laundry because it is never done. Someone is always wearing something and I know I get to wash it.
D. Dogs: My favorite dog growing up was Nikki, a Collie-type mutt we had from the time I was a baby until I was about 13 or 14. She was wonderful. Schmoopie and I have had two Great Danes (sadly, one died and the other we found a better home for) and a Golden Retriever that I adored but also found a different home because he was an escape artist and constantly ran away. I would love to get a smaller dog for the kids someday, but I also enjoy the lack of responsibility. Side note: as I was typing about the Great Danes, I was watching HGTV and the people buying a house had a Great Dane named, Roxy, who looked exactly like our last Dane, Echo.
E. Essential start to your day: Coffee for myself and Bingo always wants chocolate milk right away. Then it’s breakfast for the husband and kids. I usually wait about an hour before I eat.
F. Favorite color: Green. Olive green.
G. Gold or silver: Silver.
H: Height: 5′ 3″, although I might be a bit shorter, depending on who is measuring.
I: Instruments that you can play: Does the guitar or drums on Rock Band count?
J: Job title: Momma and Wife.
K: Kids: Two sweet girls and a darling boy.
L: Live: Missouri.
M: Mom’s name: Julie – which I’ve always loved. It just seems like a good, sweet, kind person’s name. Of course she is all of those.
N:Nicknames: Where do I start? I think my parents called me “Lizzie” when I was very young and probably “Elizabeth” too. Then I came home from pre-school and asked my parents to call me “Betsy” when I was about 3, so I went by that for the next nine or ten years. Then I started a new school and went by “Liz” starting in the 6th grade. I’ve been Liz ever since, with the occasional nickname thrown out there.
O: Overnight hospital stays: I had three c-sections, so I had hospital stays with them. Honestly I loved my time in the hospital.
P: Pet peeve: Stepping out of the shower/tub onto a wet floor. Can’t. Handle. It. There are more, but I don’t have all day.
Q: Quote from a movie: My favorite movie is Dumb and Dumber: “We got no food, no jobs… our PETS’ HEADS ARE FALLING OFF!”
R: Righty or lefty: Right handed.
S: Sibling: Five! Two step-brothers (although our parents are no longer married), two brothers and one sister.
T: Time you wake up: Usually about 7 AM when Bingo or Sunshine come crawling in! We’ve had to wake Punkin up for the past several weeks.
U: Underwear: Yes, I have some on, thanks for asking.
V:Vegetables you dislike: Hmmm. I can’t think of any I dislike.
W: What makes you run late: Forgetting something is typical and never fails. I’ve gotten better, but I’ve got a long ways to go.
X: X-rays: Dental. Late in my pregnancy with Bingo when they thought I might have pneumonia and was to have a c-section the next week. When I broke my pinky finger in third grade.
Y: Yummy food you make: Everything, of course. 
No, ummm, maybe baked goods? I love to bake, but haven’t since we’ve moved. I do cook nearly every meal though.
Z: Zoo favorite animal: I really love the elephants.
Ahhh. That was fun! Feel free to post something about yourself in the comments that I may not know about.
Hugs, Liz
