...because sometimes someone has to be a part-time thinker!
Monday Morning Question:
If you could do one or the other for vacation, would you rather go on an African safari to see animals, or go on a luxury cruise?
I'd pick the cruise. I would rather lie around than chase after animals in the dirty out of doors. I guess I must be getting really old. I just asked John which he would rather do and he said go on the safari. I guess we will be taking separate vacations!
How about you? Safari or cruise?
This week's Photo Scavenger Hunt (#17) should be completed by Saturday, March 5, at 8 PM EST.
This week's theme will be: HOMETOWN. Take a photo or two of something that represents your hometown.
Have fun! Krissy
Black & White
Thanks everyone! Hope you enjoyed the photos as much as I did.

Of course this is my cat Michael. What strikes me is how kittenlike he looks in these pictures, particularly the second one. He is seven and a half years old and still ever the playful one! Well, I won't bore you with stories about him this entry. Just hope you enjoyed the photos.

Good morning. I woke up to a good three inches of snow this morning. But nothing like the eight inches that they said we might get. So the driving I imagine should be a piece of cake, unless there is ice on the road as well. If there is, I am sure the crews who work hard around here will have the roads cleared in no time.
I have something real serious on my mind this morning. John's Mom went into the hospital a half hour ago. She has blood clots in both her legs. We don't know how long they are going to keep her. Please pray for her.
On to something more silly. I had a dream last night that a pig wouldn't get off my head and my chest. I just couldn't get it off. When I awoke I found my cat sleeping on my head! He likes to do that. To sleep right above or on part of my head (on my forhead) or he likes to sleep on my chest. Whenever he does that I don't get a good night's rest. When he sleeps on my head I call him "hat", lol. Well, he must have been sleeping on my head and that is why I was dreaming that the pig wouldn't get off. When I awoke I was trying to figure out why I dreamt that this little piggy was sleeping on my head and then it came to me. I was so impressed by the pigs in Sara's glass entry. Somehow the little piggies got into my dreams!
Oh gross my cat just threw up. He must have a hairball. Sorry, perhaps that was too much information.
Well, I better get off now, in case the hospital calls, and they need any information concerning John's Mom.
Take care of each other, Krissy
Monday Morning Question:

Entries for Scavenger Hunt #15
DELICIOUS
Thanks for all who participated. Especially those of you who did so for the first time! I wanted to do an entry this week but I had the flu. It is strange because I have had the flu twice this season and I got my flu shot. I must keep getting a strain not covered by this year's vaccine.
What I was going to do for my entry for DELICIOUS was buttered popcorn Jelly Bellies. Jelly Bellies are jelly beans. They are the best jelly beans in the world. The buttered popcorn ones actually taste like buttered popcorn! They are the best!
Anyway, I must go. I hope everyone has a nice week!

Monday Morning Question:
What would you say is the best trait (or traits) of the Valentine in your life? Your valentine can be your spouse, your child, or whomever.
Hmm, I need to think about this one for a second, because my fiance John has so many good traits. I guess one of the biggest things is that I can depend on him for ANYTHING. He is always there for me. Yes, I guess I would have to say that is his best trait.

GLASS
I have always absolutely loved glass. I have a glass collection. I guess it is a Fisher girl thing. We love to collect glass like our mother. Here are a few pieces from my collection.
Hope you enjoyed!

It's been awhile since I have done an entry. I must admit the reason is depression. It has been hanging on for two or three weeks now. Not just depression. Rapid Cycling. Sometimes I feel really down and a few minutes later I feel really up. And then really down again. I hate it.
I am going to talk to my psychiatrist about it and see what she can do. She recently changed the dosages of one of my medications and I think she decreased it too low. When I see her in about a week hopefully she will be able to clear up the problem. Depression is an ugly thing.
I do have some good days though. Today was good. It started out stressful (John and I are trying to figure out how to help John's Mom - she needs more help than we originally anticipated), but ended up fun. The reason today ended up fun was because my parents and I went over the menu for my wedding reception. Making wedding plans are fun. At first I thought they would be stressful, but my parents are helping with the planning tremendously. They are the greatest parents in the world!
About a week ago I finally got my ring back from JC Penny's sized. It is beautiful. I took a picture but it didn't turn out too well. I am going to have Val take a photo as she is better at it than I am and put a photo in here soon. It is a tanzanite ring with diamonds.
Let's see, what else is new? Some snow from the Blizzard of '05 still remains on the ground. And there are daffodils poking through the ground that are three inches high already! We have had weather below freezing and temperatures in the high fifties recently! Fickle weather. I do hope Spring comes soon!
Well, I just wanted to end with this - If I haven't gotten to your journal and left comments than I am sorry. It was because of my depression. I am sure some of you know this as you noticed I wasn't on line much recently. Please be patient with me. I am ready to visit more frequently now. I think my mood is picking up. At least I have had a couple of good days anyway!
That is it. Take care of yourselves and take care of each other. Love, Krissy
Monday Morning Question:
What kind of volunteer work have you done in your lifetime? If you haven't done any, what would you like to do?
My answer: Some of the things I have done are worked at the food bank, done crisis pregnancy counseling, done campaign work, and been an ESL teacher.
Now let's find out about each other. How about you?
This week's Photo Scavenger Hunt (#14) should be completed by Saturday, February 12, at 8 PM EST.
This weeks theme will be: GLASS
Have fun and use your imagination. Don't feel you have to be left out if you can't think of a subject. Take a picture of your prettiest drinking glass if that is what you want to do!
Take care, Krissy
