http://2nd-cup-of-coffee.blogspot.com/ This is my first time participating in the Random Dozen Meme from a wonderful blogger at 2nd cup of Coffee. (see link above) ~~1. Are you pleasant when you're ill or are you a grumpy, fussy patient? I generally sleep, or just want to be alone, so I tend to be very quiet -> so I'd say yep, I'm pleasant to be around when I'm sick :) lol ~~2. When you find out that school is canceled (due to inclement weather) what is your gut reaction? oh how exciting for them, I remember those cherished days!! ~~3. What is one domestic skill you wish you could improve? not a loyal duster. probably because it makes me sneeze, so I don't do it often enough. ~~4. Do you decorate your home for Valentine's Day? nope. just simple decorations for Christmas. ~~5. What song is on your mind today? "He's working it out for you" ~~6. Do you prefer contemporary movies or classic? the classics, or the older movies where chivalry, romance, and morality were more prevalent. ~~7. How well do you "compartmentalize" your feelings? For example, how well can you put aside a really trying moment to deal with the immediate situation which is not related to the trying moment, e.g., putting aside a tiff with your spouse in order to finish wallpapering a room. I work in customer service, so my entire work life is compartmentalized! not matter hw you felt before they came in, or after they leave...but when they are there, it's all about them with a smile your your face and in your eyes! besides, I have fibromyalgia, so I have spent my whole life compartmentalizing! if I waited until I were pain free, I'd have spent my whole life in bed. ~~8. What is the first thing that attracted you to your best friend? she adores Jesus!! I don't let many people inside my walls...but I can be 100% completely myself with her, & she just loves what she can, and prays for the rest! :) ~~9. When was the last time your heart raced? everytime I meditate on the love of the Lord for me, and how grateful I am that He ALWAYS "gets me"! ~~10. What are your memories of Valentine's Day at school? Not so much at school, but LOVED picking which valentine to give to who... ~~11. If you were going to receive candy for Valentine's Day, which would you prefer? the good brand of buttermints, yummy! ~~12. Red or pink? red
