Feast time!

Appetizer: What is the weather like today where you live?
Hazy, warm, humid. Storms brewing for later this afternoon.

Soup: On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how career-minded are you?
Probably a 7 or 8. I love what I do right now...but still think about the "what if's" if I had passed the bar exam.

Salad: What type of window coverings do you have in your home? Blinds, curtains, shutters, etc.?
We have sheers in our living/great room and dining room, plantation shades in our family room, blinds in our kitchen and laundry room, and blinds in all bedrooms. Whew!

Main Course: Name something that instantly cheers you up.
Picking the kids up at daycare and getting hugs and kisses from them.

Dessert: How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?
Never. The alarm clock is on my husband's side of the bed, so he turns it off. I usually just lay there for a few minutes before dragging myself out of bed.

OK....we all know the drill! Pull up a chair and join in the Feast! :)

    Heavy hot disgusting air.

    Soup: On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how career-minded are you?
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Um, I'm off the chart, but for the sake of this I'll give it a 1. I don't work outside my house and have NO INTEREST in leaving Ms. Bee.

    Salad: What type of window coverings do you have in your home? Blinds, curtains, shutters, etc.?
    Blinds and window scarves

    Main Course: Name something that instantly cheers you up.
    Flipping on rap and watching Athena shake her moneymaker.

    Dessert: How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?
    Athena didn't come with a snooze button.

  3. Weather:
    Ugh, I don't want to talk about it. Same as others, warm and sticky. I am moving where it is in the 70's all year round.

    Career-minded:
    yes (8...don't want to be ALL about the career) but it is on hold at the moment. Though I am not doing what I went to school for I know exactly what I want to get my masters in and do, however it is T's turn to go to school and get his career so mine is temporarily on hold!

    Windows:
    goodness, we are still fixing this stuff up. We have a Roman shade in the living room and blinds every where else except the bedrooms. K's bedroom will have new fun curtains ours still has the ones the person before made...they are fine for now - curtains are expensive!

    Cheers you up:
    When my husband laughs you can't be mad. If you have ever heard him, it is the funniest thing ever...SP can you back me up on this?!

    Snooze:
    About three times. If I showered the night before then 4.

  4. Weather today: Pleasant. Uh, no. It's sticky.

    Career-mindedness: I'm gonna say a safe 7.

    Window coverings: We mostly have the blinds that the woman before us had, which I don't care for. But I LOVE the new roman shades in our kitchen.

    Instantly cheers me up: When Nora snuggles up next to me. Wine helps too.

    Hit the snooze button: Oh boy, we are so bad at this. I honestly hit it for an hour. So about 8 or 9 times. That is so BAD!

  5. Appetizer: sunny and humid. most likely will rain later today though.

    Soup: 6. I could be an 8 if I was currently working outside the home.

    Salad: Blinds here and there and curtains other places. Some don't have any coverings.

    Main course: a frappucino. But you knew that. :) Friends do the job too.

    Dessert: I don't have an alarm set. My daughter is my alarm. And its best not to hit her in the mornings. :)

    Career Minded Factor: right now i'm like a 9.

    Window Coverings: i have mini blinds and curtains, boring.

    Instantly cheers me up: a happy baby or my pug

    Snooze Button: i ignore my alarm usually, but it amounts to about 3 times on average.

  7. Appetizer: What is the weather like today where you live?
    Very hot and HUMID, and sunny

    Soup: On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how career-minded are you?
    7

    Salad: What type of window coverings do you have in your home?
    blinds, but they really aren't horizontal. They are kinda all one piece and they raise from the bottom or lower from the top. They are nice! Wood blinds in kitchen, reagular blinds in b-rooms

    Main Course: Name something that instantly cheers you up.
    Seeing my kids and husband. also reading blogs.

    Dessert: How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?
    2...I'm tired!

    In the 80s and humid. Not too bad for driving down a country road, but terrible for just about everything else, haha.

    Soup: On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how career-minded are you?
    I'd probably say a 7 or 8. I'm really focused on getting my degree. And although college is the time for exploration, getting to learn about oneself, having fun (since you will be working for the next forty or fifty years), I actually don't go to parties and study really hard. I hope it pays off!

    Salad: What type of window coverings do you have in your home? Blinds, curtains, shutters, etc.?
    At my parents' home we have mostly curtains in every room of the house with blinds in the bathrooms and kitchen. See WK's answer for her place.

    Main Course: Name something that instantly cheers you up.
    Listening to Mitch Hedberg. I adore him.

    Dessert: How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?
    I use the alarm on my phone (I should probably get a real alarm clock), so I usually don't hit snooze.

    And yes, I am backing up my sister. T.'s laugh is one of the greatest laughs I've ever heard. It's one of the things I miss about him.

  9. Weather today?
    Hot. Sunny. Relentless heat.

    Career-minded
    8.5

    Window coverings?
    Toledo: Those "faux" wood blinds everywhere.
    Cabo: Not many window coverings at all, some sheers, roll-up shades and blinds.

    Cheers me up
    My husband's out-of-no-where funny statements OR The Ferginator.

    Snooze
    Once. We don't have an alarm clock in Cabo - we both use our blackberries.

  10. Appetizer: What is the weather like today where you live?
    Overcast, humid and 75ish.

    Soup: On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how career-minded are you?
    When I'm at work a 10, when I'm home a 2. I love my job and want to retire there in a VP role, but I love my family and can still leave work at work. I hope it stays that way....

    Salad: What type of window coverings do you have in your home? Blinds, curtains, shutters, etc.?
    Blinds, curtains and a couple of Roman shades

    My children.

    Dessert: How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?
    I liked you answer Nadja... Jenna doesn't come with a snooze button either. :) BUT, when I actually needed an alarm clock I would press it on average 3-4 times. NOT a morning person here.
