As seen on Kailani’s blog, An Island Life, a couple of weeks ago…

What kind of soap is in your bathtub right now? Tons of different ones. We have Lever 2000 body wash, I have some Dial body wash, then two scents of Bath and Body Works

Do you have any watermelon in your refrigerator? Nope. I have some other fruit, but not watermelon

What would you change about your living room? Gosh, where to start!

Are the dishes in your dishwasher clean or dirty? Dirty. I ran it yesterday, and always unload it as soon as it’s finished.

What is in your fridge? Lots of food! Hehehe. Milk, orange juice, leftovers, yogurt, lots of cheese, lettuce, carrots, condiments out the wazoo

White or wheat bread? Wheat

What is on top of your refrigerator? a decorative plate, some cookbooks, my George Foreman grill

What color or design is on your shower curtain? Maroon, striped

How many plants are in your home? 3 live ones that I want to get rid of and several fake ones

Is your bed made right now? Of course!

Comet or Soft Scrub? Both

Is your closet organized? My side is. You know who hasn’t worked on his.

Can you describe your flashlight? Pink. Really old. Tim has a lot of black, guy type flashlights in the garage and cars though

Do you drink out of glass or plastic most of the time at home? Plastic most of the time

Do you have iced tea made in a pitcher right now? Yes

If you have a garage, is it cluttered? Hmmm, a little. But that’s outside, so that’s Tim’s domain

Curtains or blinds? Both.

How many pillows do you sleep with? One

Do you sleep with any lights on at night? No way Jose. I have to have it dark to sleep. Just the little LED glow from electronics is more light than I like

How often do you vacuum? Once or twice a week

Standard toothbrush or electric? Regular one

What color is your toothbrush? Pink!

Do you have a welcome mat on your front porch? Yes, it has fall colored leaves on it and actually says “Welcome” in the center!

What is in your oven right now? Not a thing

Is there anything under your bed? Yes, and this is a forthcoming Question of the Day

Chore you hate doing the most? Probably dusting or cleaning the shower

What retro items are in your home? Nothing really. I have one antique, a love seat from my grandmother’s family that is probably 150-175 years old

Do you have a separate room that you use as an office? Yes, our spare bedroom

How many mirrors are in your home? I had to count! Six, decorative plus bathrooms

Do you have any hidden emergency money around your home? Umm, possibly

What color are your walls? Most of them are a neutral with a hint of a light peach to them. I hate them. I want to paint but I hate to paint. Master bathroom is a faux two-tone khaki and the kitchen is yellow. The only rooms we’ve repainted!

Do you keep any kind of protection weapons in your home? Yes, Tim does

What does your home smell like right now? the Yankee Candle “Harvest” candle I’m burning right now

Favorite candle scent? anything that smells like something baking or sweet

What kind of pickles (if any) are in your refrigerator right now? kosher baby dills

What color is your favorite Bible? Black

Ever been on your roof? No. But Tim has been up there many times.

Do you own a stereo? By stereo, if you can count the conglomeration of receivers, cd changers, woofer and surround sound speakers, yes!

How many TVs do you have? Three

How many house phones? Three

Do you have a housekeeper? Me!

What style do you decorate in? Comfy cozy

Do you like solid colors in furniture or prints? Most everything is a subtle print

Is there a smoke detector in your home? Yes, two sets. The builder installed electric ones, which we thought was stupid, because if the power is out, HELLO, they wont’ work. So right beside each of the electric ones, we installed battery powered ones.

In case of fire, what are the items in your house which you’d grab if you only could make one quick trip? Assuming Tim and Beau were safely out, I’d grab my laptop, my iPod, and as many photo albums and scrapbooks as I could get

Feel free to grab and play along at your blog, if you’d like. Leave me a message if you do, so I can come visit and read all of your answers! 🙂

  1. Heidi Said,

    I have to go with getting photos out too. They are irreplaceable.

  2. Sadie Said,

    Oooh, Harvest is my favorite Yankee Candle smell! It automatically makes me feel like fall.

  3. Susanne Said,

    Those were fun! That candle sounds wonderful!

  4. Shawna Said,

    You can’t see the top of my fridge! And you probably don’t want to know how many TVs we have — ok, we have 5! One for almost every room except the bathrooms. But, I’ve cut way down and don’t have to have one on in the room while I’m in it anymore:)

    And I would grab my pictures, too.

  5. theresa Said,

    Such a southern girl having a picture of ice tea in the refriderator- I love that! Definitely agree with your choice of not wanting to clean the bathroom. I too am the housecleaner. I always wish my house was just a little bit bigger with one more room, but everytime I go to clean it I think we could use a smaller house. Just don’t know how 2 adults and a cat can make such a mess sometimes.

  6. Debi Said,

    That was fun to read, Stacy! My favorite line…”I want to paint but I hate to paint.” Oh, I am so with you on that one, girl!

  7. heather Said,

  11. Gail Said,

    Condiments out the wazoo, me too! Oooh, so are we gonna get to see what’s under your bed soon if you’re doing qotd about that, fun! I’ll be waiting to hear about the money stash too, since it’s your birthday you can add to it.
    And funny question about the roof, never thought about it but I don’t think I’ve been on ours either.
