I haven’t done a meme for a while, and I thought I’d be a good incentive to get back to blogging, to be honest most of the time I’ve been getting  bloggers block.

I could be driving or maybe washing the dishes and then that little lightbulb would come one and I’d think to myself… “Eureka! That’s something to blog about!” the idea stays there for the duration of what I was doing at the time, but then distractions passes my way and by the time you know it, it’s 11pm and the thought of getting my laptop out to write a blog entry about an idea 12 hours ago doesn’t seem as exciting. Plus, the dirty looks I get from hubby could kill if I ever contemplated writing at that time of the night, you see, he likes his after 9 ‘us time’ on the settee. Ah well, he’ll probably kill me anyway for mentioning that.

Now about this tag, actually it’s pretty good. Got it from Itisi, feel free to do it if you like, but let me know so I have a little nose at it.

I know you shouldn’t really judge people but I tend to be put off by people with bad feet, chewed fingernails and cracked heels. Especially women, if I see them with unkept nails or arid heels makes me wonder whatelse don’t they bother with?  I also tend to judge men by the shoes they wear.

What’s been the most stressful thing that you had to deal with in the past year?

Moving home! We saw a house we wanted and we decided it was for us, the school was walking distance and the kids loved it, but then 8 weeks before moving the deal fell apart =(. We started looking again and we found an ideal place, so nice and big, just fell in love with it, but again the same thing happened. But we finally settled for the house we are living in now and we love it, I guess things always happen for a reason.

When was the last time you had a really great time?

When I went for a 3 hour spa session with my sister in law, it was absoloute bliss. We chatted, relaxed, drank wine and spent most of out time in the sauna, we came out feeling floaty and chilled. =) I want to do it again!

The rules:

1. Respond and rework; answer the questions on your blog, replace one question you dislike with a question of your invention, then one more question of your own.

2. Tag eight other people. (I’m not tagging anyone on this but if you fancy having a go then please do so, and let me know)
