Man, it's been a while since we've done one of these, hasn't it? I guess, sometimes life just gets so....so....complicated that a "mini vacation" isn't even practical.
Well, I say enough of that. Let's step away for just a moment.
Pam posted a little "quiz" that is supposed to tell us about who we are and how we deal with life based on our "dream home". Well, I'm really not in a place where I want to share all THAT with y'all, I will play along partially.
You walk deep in the woods. You enter a clearing, and before you is your DREAM house. How big is it?
It's pretty big. It has 4 bedrooms, with an office. BIG kitchen, huge family room and dining room. Big. Wrap around porch with lots of chairs grouped.
Is your dream house surrounded by a fence?
No way.
You enter the house. You walk into the dining room and see the dining room table. What do you see on AND around it?
Well, first thing? Candles. Candles on the table, candles on the walls, lots of beautiful candles. And fresh cut flowers. Big bunches of them. The table would seat 20. (I know they exist, my aunt has one that sits 24 easily.) It would be rich dark wood, simple design with very comfy chairs. Chairs you enjoy sitting in, cause I don't want any one to "rush the meal" because they are uncomfortable. In the middle of the table would be my big red bowl. With, of course a candle in it. The places would be set with my simple white dishes and you can smell a delicious meal ready to be served from the kitchen. While I can't see any people - I hear them. In the family room. Waiting.
You exit the house and a cup is on the ground, what kind is it?
Pottery. Over sized, brown, hand made.
What do you do with the cup?
I pick it up and place it on one of the tables arranged with the chairs on the porch.
You walk to the edge of the property where you find yourself standing at the edge of a body of water. What kind of body of water is it?
It's a lake. Surrounded by trees. It's so big I can barely make out the other shoreline.
How will you cross the water?
A sailboat. With a green sail.
Now, Pam has the analysis on WHAT your answers mean and how they describe a bit of your philosophy of life. I won't go THAT far, but by all means head over and play along.
Me? I'm goin' back into the house and serve dinner to my guests. After all, it's my dream, and I'm not quite ready for it to end just yet......
