[catsroomie]

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? Mine closed, Hubby's open
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? Usually. At work we used to make up baskets with hotel toiletries for the food bank hand out at Christmas. Just a little gift to make women dealing with difficult issues feel like someone cares.
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? Out - my feet hate being mashed.
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? No - can't figure out what people who do steal them do with them.
5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? Constantly
6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? The bear - I usually have the means to defend myself from a bear.
7. Do you have freckles? Yes. And now that I'm getting older, I'm getting these really big, very pretty freckles on my hands!! I've heard other people call theirs "age spots", but I know that mine are just big freckles. Age spots?....pshaw!
8. Do you always smile for pictures? I try, but it is usually lopsided if it shows up at all. I spent too many years hiding from cameras so I don't have a lot of practice.
9. What is your biggest pet peeve? Oh, so many pet peeves and so little time to indulge them. Let's see....OK, a major one is people who don't pick up after their dogs around town. Out in the boonies, fine - I don't either out there, but around town where people have to walk and kids play, it is just so so very very inconsiderate. Hm...I guess "Inconsiderate People" would cover that and a lot of other things.
10. Have you ever peed in the woods? Hey, I hunt, I fish, I hike, I camp - of COURSE I've peed in the woods. And in the sage brush and the tall grass and I've also s...Oops!!...that's probably TMI, eh? Final answer: "Yes".

[Kim]

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? Open...otherwise the Boogy Man might be hiding in there.
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? No...ick...I'm picky. I have a friend that takes them and donates them to the homeless shelter. I think that's a brilliant idea.
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? Out. Otherwise...I...CAN'T...MOVE!!

[Papa John]

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? Depends on how much junk is piled up just inside the closet.

2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? I don't, but Sweetie does...some kind of getting what you paid for thing.

3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? Out on the sides but it drives me crazy if they're not tucked at the bottom.

4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? No, that is against the law and can cause accidents.

5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? Nope. I used to clip them and use them religiously, but I got tired of being the only one who could be bothered with it so I quit.

6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? The bear. The encounter would be mercifully short. It might take me hours to die from all the bee stings.

7. Do you have freckles? Not exactly, but the older I get, the more "things" show up...seems like eventually I might be all "things" (spots, bumps etc)

8. Do you always smile for pictures? Yeah, I try and usually manage except for Sweetie. She has an uncanny knack for catching me with my eyes closed and just before a smile.

9. What is your biggest pet peeve? People who curse like sailors in public places. It's getting to where you aren't safe from it even in nice restaurants. I believe it is a sure sign of the decline of our society.

10. Have you ever peed in the woods? I was in the Army for 13 years, of course I've peed in the woods! And I have to admit that Willie likes the occasional breath of fresh air.

[~Jane~]

This is an excellent Fun Friday Diane!

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? However they end up at the moment. Dun't matter to me how they are at bedtime.
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? Me no, Wayne yes "for you" he says. LOL I had to tell him to STOP because we had so many of the danged things... this donating them to homeless shelters etc is a brilliant idea. I could get some of my bathroom closet space back!
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? In on bottom, out on sides with my feet or at least one foot out. GOTTA BREATH MAN!
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? Yes. There I said it. I'm one of those disrespectable people who in their teens stole a road sign. Sturm Road. My friend Janet just haaaad to have it... her last name is Sturm. It wasn't even a metal one, it was white wood with black lettering on it. We're talking wayyyy out in the country here. But yes, I admit it, I've stolen a road sign in the past. So sue me.
5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? I used to... then I got sick of them floating around in the bottom of my purse because I'd FORGET to use them. I don't bother anymmore.
6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? IF I get a choice, I'll choose neither thank you very much. Bears have long been one of my nightmare things. So I guess I'll be the odd-one-out and say swarm of bees. If they aren't Africanized maybe I can run far enough to get away, I can always hope for water to submerse myself in. If they're Africanized... dun't matter, they don't give up and they can fly faster than/longer than we can run. Those little suckers'll wait for a person to come out of the water too. Geeze... why do we have to have bears and bees? Whey can't we have puppies and kittens??
7. Do you have freckles? YUP!
8. Do you always smile for pictures? Unless I don't know it's gonna happen I do!
9. What is your biggest pet peeve? Mosquitos. OMG I just flippin' HATE mosquitos!
10. Have you ever peed in the woods? Heck yeah! I've done a lot of things in the woods that I wouldn't want on video!

[MeanOldUncleJeff]

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? Yes
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? I made it through an entire year of college without buying soap or shampoo because I had saved them up from hotels during a summer job.
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? Yes
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? I've never stolen so much as a stick of gum!

6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? Bear. Bears leave better scars. Chicks dig scars. Plus, if I am attacked by a bear, it probably means that I am salmon fishing in Alaska. If I am attacked by bees, it probably means I am in El Paso, Texas. I would much rather be in Alaska. (My kids reminded me that my answer to this question should have been "NO.")

5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? No. I don't buy anything.
6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? Bees. I like the secrets they whisper right before they sting you.

5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? I used to, but I came to my senses

8. Do you always smile for pictures? I believe I do
9. What is your biggest pet peeve? People who fake being nice & then stab you in the back

[Barbara S]

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? HATE cupboards and drawers being left open in any room. Wish I could train my DH!
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? I used to. Chucked a heap out when I moved house and wish I didn't now coz I've needed them when going away for "cheap" weekends
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? Bottom corner at least. DH hates anything tucked in but complains when I "pinch" the blankets. My response . . . TUCK IN!!
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? No
5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? Not any more. Hate them cluttering my purse.
6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? I refuse to choose. They're both painful
7. Do you have freckles? I'm a natural redhead. Always had freckles. Wish they'd all join up and give me a tan. My mum told me they are a sign of beauty as it means the sun has kissed me. LOL
8. Do you always smile for pictures? Yes unless I'm poking out my tongue or similar (and assuming my face is in the photo)
9. What is your biggest pet peeve? I have so many. Around home it's water puddles on the kitchen bench and cupboards and drawers being left open. In society, inconsiderate people and those that put others down.
10. Have you ever peed in the woods? Many times. When ya gotta go, ya gotta go. Most recently peed in the woods covered in snow. NEVER eat yellow snow! I'm with Jeanie with the last part of her answer too!

[Kim]

I've got a question about donating soap and shampoo to the homeless... Where do they go to use them?

They use public restroom sinks. If the weather is warm, sometimes the fountain displays in parks (never drink that water).

[Sandi]

My donations are used in homeless shelters and foster homes. We pack up overnight bags for kids who have to leave home under duress and travel to relatives or foster care facilities run by churches etc.




Whoa! You go JEANIE!!! Way to get "jiggy with it!" Go girl go.

[JohnnyBGood]

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? Depends on if I'm in there the night before.
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? It's been so long since I've been in a hotel, I don't remember.
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? They're usually in before I go to bed, and out when I wake up. I guess I'm still a tosser-and-turner.
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? Don't recall ever doing that. I did a LOT of stupid things when I was a kid though.
5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? Ninety percent of what I buy is store, or generic brands. I think most store brands are just as good as the name brands, and a lot cheaper. So, no, I don't even bother to cut coupons.
6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? I was actually attacked by a swarm of jellowjackets when I was about 15. I walked away with 28 stings, but I LIVED. I think the odds of making an early expiration are a lot greater with the bear. So, I guess I'm saying if I had a choice, I'd choose the bees again.
7. Do you have freckles? Yep. Just call me Howdy Doody.
8. Do you always smile for pictures? If you consider sticking my tongue out, crossing my eyes, or giving the camera the occasional "bird" then, yes, I do
9. What is your biggest pet peeve? Hmm Tough one. I guess after driving an 18-wheeler for so long, I'd have to say careless drivers. Especially around trucks.
10. Have you ever peed in the woods? Every chance I get. I need to "mark my territory" lol.

[dorrie531]

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? It doesn't matter to me but my DH is worried about monsters so they are always closed
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? of course !!
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? Has to be tucked in at the bottom but open at the sides so I can stick my feet out if I am hot...
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? Nope
5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? Nope
6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? Neither but if I had to chose it would be a bear....
7. Do you have freckles? No just age spots...yuck
8. Do you always smile for pictures? I hate pictures and I don't have any of me ...so probably no
9. What is your biggest pet peeve? Rude and inconsiderate people..like those who block my parking space
10. Have you ever peed in the woods? Of course hasn't everyone?? and I agree that sex in the woods is great as well

[songbirddiane]

Fun answers! Keep them coming neighbors!

1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed? Really doesn't matter to me, I guess they are usually open.
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? Yes I do, and now you have given me great ideas as to what to do with them.
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? Out, can't be stuck in...I'm restless and need to spread out.
4. Have you ever stolen a street sign before? No I haven't but it seems like something I would have done, not sure why I didn't...never found one with my name I guess.
5. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? No, my husband takes care of the shopping because he is the cook and I spend more money when I go so he doesn't want me shopping for groceries.
6. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? I love BeJean's answer but I will say my DH Chris instead of Paul.
7. Do you have freckles? Yes and I have those things on my hands as well and they are certainly freckles...nothing to do with my age!
8. Do you always smile for pictures? Yes I do, however something that is driving me crazy is that I have one eye that is much smaller than the other when I smile...I am trying to open that eye up more which makes me look a bit like a crazed person...I guess I must accept my odd smile eye happening.
9. What is your biggest pet peeve? Fake insincere people or people who think they are better than.
10. Have you ever peed in the woods? Yes, I camped a lot in my youth and when I ran with the neighborhood pack it was mostly boys (I have two brothers) and the boys would always pee outside and I was so jealous because it was so easy for them! It's been the only time I wished I was a boy.

[~Jane~]

Here ya go Diane... I got something for you this morning.
