Aloha Friday- Contentment Addition

 

Well, it is another week for Aloha Friday over at An Island Life, and this is how she explains her brilliant little meme:

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link [on her blog]. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

So, my question for you this week is:

Are you a glass half empty or glass half full kind of gal?

To answer my own question, I think I tend to be glass half empty- but I'm working on it!!  I am currently going through this wonderful study on contentment by Linda Dillow called Calm My Anxious Heart. I plan to blog more about it soon (so stay posted), but in the mean time, I highly recommend it for any of you ladies who may be struggling with this!

So, my question for this week is-

Do you decorate for fall?

Personally, I like to add fall colors to our home and place gourds and cornstalks on our porch, but we don't make jack-o-lanterns because we don't like to celebrate Halloween.

Aloha Friday- Oct. 2, 2009

I have seen Aloha Friday around so much but never really joined in, but today I decided that I would!  So, here goes- my laid back Friday post! Here is my simple question for you all to answer:

What do you just love about me?

Haha- just kidding!  How ridiculous would that be?!  I already know you all think I'm wonderful!  Okay- kidding again!  I am completely joking, so please, don't answer that! 

Okay, my real question, mostly for you stay-at-home-mamas:

What time of day do you actually get ready and put on real clothes?

My honest answer is that I am trying to get better and goodness knows there were many days this summer that I threw something on other than my nursing bra, boxers and a bathrobe as I heard my husband's diesel truck roar into the driveway after work!  However, it seems that Lion Cub is best behaved just after he wakes up in the morning, so I have been trying to shower and slip into something from my actual wardrobe by around 9 or 10 am while he watches Baby Einstein with R-Man.  So far it is going pretty well, but I am wearing the above described sleep-wear at the moment I am writing this, but hey, I'm getting a cold and it is rainy outside so I justify!  Haha! 

Okay, that answer wasn't nearly as short as I intended.  Oops!

What about you?
