Okay....finally back to Friday Fives!!!!

Although I don't like to be too rigid or scheduled, some routines just feel good. It feels good to be back to Friday Fives!!!

1.  Do you play a musical instrument; which one?

2.  Do you feel creative today?

3. What would you like to redecorate in your house?

4.  What is a talent you do possess?  (might be rolling your tongue, photography, or balancing a checkbook!)

5. What do you look forward to about the fall?

I realize all these are totally random and unrelated....but it IS my blog, and when I go back to question #2.....well, today my creativity is being totally random!! :D

1. Do you play a musical instrument; which one?

2. Do you feel creative today?

3. What would you like to redecorate in your house? I have such a love/hate affair with my house. There are so many things I need to redecorate but finishing my kitchen has to be at the top of the list. Next would probably be hall. I want to put a nice wainscotting to brighten it up.

4. What is a talent you do possess? (might be rolling your tongue, photography, or balancing a checkbook!) I can sketch and draw...I can make baskets (or at least I used to be able to and would probably have to hone my skills if they ever come back in style)... I'm a darn good cook

5. What do you look forward to about the fall? Every single thing....I love the smell of fall, the cool mornings, the joy I feel during this time of year, the pumpkin patches, the hay fields, the smell of cinnamon and apples, the heavy dew laden mornings, the harvest moons...I could go on and on. Can you tell this is my favorite time of year??


I don't see your answers to the Friday Fives...come on girl..give it up!

Geez, I must really be tired this week. I missed the first two questions completely. Here are my answers to those.
1. Do you play a musical instrument; which one? I'm so non-musical it is not funny. Can't play an instrument or sing a lick.

2. Do you feel creative today? Not particularly but I am looking forward to finding some things to spark my creativity tomorrow when I go on the 100 mile long yardsale

Blue Creek Home said...

This sounded like a lot of fun, so here goes!

1. I play the piano and limited banjo

2. I do indeed, feel creative today!

3. The upstairs "room with a view"
needs some love.

4. I can roll my tongue- raise one
eyebrow-I can sing all parts
of 3 part harmony-I can balance
a checkbook, but I don't!!!

5. COOLER TEMPERATURES instead of
this 100 plus, humid stuff!
And, the anticipation of the
upcoming holidays.

Ok,Anita, I am giving it up, my friend! And how I wish I was with you going on the 100 mile long yard sale!!! Except that it might be pretty hot!



1. Do you play a musical instrument; which one? I can pick out with my right hand things on the piano, but can't really play it. I can sing, but sure wished I had learned an instrument!


2. Do you feel creative today? sort of, but no plans to create, except create some clean clothes, and perhaps a meal! :D


3. What would you like to redecorate in your house? The bathrooms, and maybe the living room.


4. What is a talent you do possess? (might be rolling your tongue, photography, or balancing a checkbook!) I can sing, I can accessorize a room fairly well, and I am a good listener.


5. What do you look forward to about the fall?
I'm with Anita....everything! The cooler temps, for sure, the "feel" of fall, the colors, the holidays to come; fall always inspires me to be creative, to decorate, to bake and cook!

Thanks y'all for playing along!

1. I can play the flute but haven't played in a VERY long time.

2. Not feeling overly creative...had to cut the grass in HOT south GA so I'm pretty sure that sapped everything from me.

3. Would love to redecorate my home office. It's long overdue.

4. Only talent I remotely possess is that I'm a pretty good organizer.

5. I cannot wait for the cooler temps in the fall.

Tales From My Empty Nest said...

1. I am not musical at all, although I do love to listen to music of all kinds.

2. I feel creative every day. I love to do all kinds of crafts. Quilt, sew, knit, make cards, scrapbook, refinish furniture, feltwork, smocking, etc. I think I have tried just about every type of craft.

3. I would love to re-do my master bedroom and bath. That is next on our to do list. I still have the original paint and wallpaper in the bedroom/bath from when the house was built back in 1987. It needs updating for sure.

4. I have many different talents. I love to cook, I am a good listener and I enjoy people. I love to write cards and letters to people, I am a patient person.

5. Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. I love the coolness in the air, the leaves changing, pumpkins, football season, wearing fall sweaters, fall food (pumpkin bread, gingerbread, soups, stews, etc).

Have a great weekend. Love & blessings from NC!

YEA! You're back! The header looks GREAT! Love it!

1. I can play a scale on the baritone and pick out notes on the piano. that's about it.

2. Not even a little bit creative today.

3. I would LOOOOVE to re-decorate and/or start all over if I had LOTS of $$ to spend. I would work on the master and the laundry room and finish the kitchen.

4. Talent? Hmmm. I can sew and paint the basic stuff. Hmmm. I'm a very good eater of chocolate. Does that count? I am pretty good with names. Hubby knows faces and I know names. We're quite the couple.

5. I'm with you on fall, Suzanne. Oh, how I love fall - my favorite season. Kids are back in school which means I have some "me" time for a change. I love the cooler weather and the holidays to come. Getting ready for Christmas makes me crafty. I love to cook/bake and eat in fall too, which is horrible for my waistline. My other favorite thing about fall? FOOTBALL! The Cowboys first game is on Sunday. WOO HOO!

5. What do you look forward to about the fall? cooler temps and decorating for fall!

I'm late to the party! That's what I get for spending the day in Savannah.

Lucky me, I get to read the others and copy.

1. I play the flute, but I was never that good. Apparently, it requires practice. Who knew?

2. I feel somewhat creative but feel like I don't have the time, money, or energy to actually bring anything from head to hand.

3. I have many things that I want to redo. The top of my list is my ugly ugly kitchen. I have been saving for a big "ta da". That's why it's such a big "ta dump".

4.My only real talent is teaching. I'm told I am a good Bible Study teacher... but that's God, not me.
I love people easily.

And if FrouFrou gets to count chocolate, than I'm counting pasta eating too. So there.

5. I'm looking forward to cooler temperatures. Fall is my all time favorite season, and even though I'm sad about the empty nest, I'll still love all things autumn.
