ABC's of Me

Brianna tagged me, so here it is!

Do you like to write?

Yes. I mostly like writing poetry. But I also like writing fiction, though what I have is NOT of printing quality.

Favorite books?

Narnia, Bible, Fairy Tales (Grimm's, Hans Christian Andersson), old mysteries (Poirot, sherlock holmes) Anne of Green Gables, anything by Louisa May Alcott.

Do you compose music/write songs?

I've written many song lyrics. As for music, I have, but not since I was 9...

Do you like poetry?

YES, YES, YES!!!! I especially like Rudyard Kipling and, sorry Aunt Di, Robert Frost. A Midsummer Night's Dream is really good, too.

Love someone so much who made you cry?

I don't think I quite understand this question. Any ideas? Please leave me a comment...

Broken a bone?

Nope, fortunately, I escaped that one!!!

Been in a police car?

You heard about the time I was put in jail for armed robbery, didn't you ;)- it was there I learned how to lose at spades...;)

Been on a boat?

Let's see... 3 close family members in the U.S.Navy, plus 3 trips to Disney with at least 2 ferry trips each, plus a trip to Seaport in CA, plus a trip to a Navy base in Norfolk, VA...

Fallen asleep in school?

Never, shame on me if I had!!!

Did you sing today?

An easier question for me would be when am I NOT singing!!! I am always singing! Even when I'm not, I usually have a song in my head. And, thanks to God and His amazing Grace, I always have a song in my heart! My cousin said he believed I had a song for every situation!!

KFC, Popeyes, or Church's?

Never had Church's, and I can't stand KFC. Popeye's holds a special place in family tradition, though. When we moved into a townhome (when I was 5) though we had no furniture, we celebrated our first meal in our new house with Popeyes chicken and biscuts, mac and cheese and a bottle of sparkling apple cider. When I was 11, we moved into our current home (a rancher) and repeated this tradition.

Chick-fil-a or What-a-burger?

I've never had What-a-burger, But the whole family LOVES Chick-fil-a. If you haven't ever had their Honey Roasted BBQ than you, my friend, are seriously missing out!!!

Starbucks of McCafe?

According to Dr.Kent Hovind, "If you drink coffee, your children will be born naked and illiterate!"

What's your favorite time of year?

Spring: because life is new Summer: with it's bright sun light Fall: with frost and morning dew Winter: because of snowy-white!

Do you ever talk to yourself?

Talk?! I've been known to hold full conversations with myself! Strange, I know... but tell me what else is new! Hey, I've never been accused of being normal! ;)

Do you have a favorite treat you like to buy on occasion?

Ghiridelli caramel squares.

Do you believe the Bible is the literal Word of God and is infallible?

No doubt in my mind WHATSOEVER!!! I believe that God did tell men what to write without changing their personal writing styles.ex: Peter, an un-educated fisherman, wrote God's Word in simple, everyday words and grammar, while Paul, an extendedly and in-depthly (is that a word?) educated Pharisee (Master on Moses and the Prophets) wrote in a far more advanced style. I believe God's Word is from eternity past to eternity future and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. World without end, Amen and Amen.

What's your favorite sport?

Baseball- because it's the only one I understand!!!

What color is your ipod?

Light blue and I keep in in a lime green leather case. I have a third generation nano (the silver-backed square ones).

If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?

Anywhere and everywhere, but especially Europe. And Israel.

If you could go to any fictional place, where would you go?

Narnia, Telmar, Colorman, the 7 Isles, the Lone Islands, All the way to Ramandu's Island, Aslan's country. (Only those who have read Narnia will understand any of this!!!)

Do you love to write or do you just like writing? Or do you write at all?

I just like writing, but I love writing poems.

What do you want to be when you’re a grown up?

Whatever God has planned...

Favorite animal?

Cats, all cats any cats, from domestic to a Begal Tiger!

Favorite song?

See the question "Did you sing today"

Do you like school?

"Oh, I'm ALL about this." Guess the movie this quote is from to win brownie points!! Mom and nana- you don't count...:)

Are you a people person because I’m getting the idea that you are?

YES.

Do you like to talk?

I've been told so, yes.

Favorite food?

I'll eat anything but snails, neck and organs. Oh, and blood sausage!

Hobbies?

Narnia, poetry, reading, sewing, piano.

Favorite author?

C.S.Lewis, Agatha Christie, God, Kipling, L.M.Montgomery, Louisa May Alcott

Favorite weapon?

Bow and arrows. these can be strong and feminine. And I don't only like them because Susan has one. They remind me of the verse in the Bible (it escapes me just now where it is: I think Proverbs?.) it says, and I am paraphrasing here, that children are like arrows in the hand of a strong man. Blessed and happy is he who has his quiver full.

Is this a fun tag or are you getting bored?

Fun. (yawn) ;)
Do you like Hannah Montana and all those girly people and movies like Highschool Musical?

Absolutely NO. I am opposed to any so-called role model who dresses like a, please forgive my language, a harlot. I am sorry if you do like those people; but I believe as a Christian it is my duty to speak out against evil symbols being raised up for our little ones to follow.

What are you scared of?

Failure, but not much else. Oh, and spiders, but only big ones.

Favorite flower?

Irises or tulips or sedums.

What is the expression on your face?

Normal "I'm staring at my computer" blank expression.

Color of your eyes?

I've had people call them blue and others say that they were green. I'll leave it up to you to decide.

In order to keep the fun going, I'll tag: Lizzie and Jo!

I do not like writing as an assignment, but it is an enjoyable pastime as long as no one is going to be too critical of it. I am not "good" at writing, but do it anyway. Ha! Ha!

Hi, sweetheart. You might want to go back and add spaces to this post between each question. It is very hard to read.

Love ya!

Dearest and Sweetest Mama,
I'm very sorry that this is hard to read. I tried to fix this problem, but only made a lot of work for Nana to undo :0 !!!
Nana couldn't figure it out in the end either... I may try a new layout... maybe that will help!
Love,
KK

Hello, my dear daughter.

I came here with promise of a post from Pa's neck of the woods.

Try going to your edit HTML for this post. Delete excess html code which should be just about everything there and then add spacing in the HTML edit tab. I have had this problem before and that usually fixes it. Do not ask me why. If you will email my yahoo account your login and password info I will take a look at it for you. One more note. Copy and paste you post into a new draft and save it before you work on this one in case it gets messed up. Then you can just put it back the way it was.

I am blessed to hear such good news from home. Thank you for your service to our family and in turn to your Uncle, Aunt and cousin. Now I am off for my nap. I stayed up much too late to post last night and read emails and look for news of home. I am feeling the pinch this afternoon. I want to get rested so I can post about all the wonderful things happening here.

Love to you my good daughter,

Mama

Almost there! Glad to see it worked. Now add one line between each question and answer section.
