Hey Bonnie, we have lots in common! I may 'play' this in a day or two!

Beach Girl said...

Well, Bonnie.....

This BAREFOOTED BEACH girl loves both SUNRISE & SUNSET because they are both magnificent here! And loves the warmth of the SUN and the incredible CLOUD formations out here, but also loves the full MOON and the bazillion STARS to look at, especially out on the beach. After all night on my SIDE, I must have my COFFEE first thing in the EARLY MORNING. I open the blinds only because they are there, but love to see my CURTAINS blowing in the breeze. Then OATMEAL with STRAWBERRIES would be delicious. Of course, SCRAMBLED eggs with cheese might be nice too. BRUSHING my hair only to pull it back in a BRAID is next on the agenda for the day after putting on PANTS or shorts with a GREEN shirt, not red or pink (clashes with my dark auburn hair). I always wear my cross and love to wear a different BRACELET each day. Some days include going to the SECOND HAND stores, driving my TRUCK (SUV) out on the beach, WRITING HANDWRITTEN notes with a PEN, or reading NON-FICTION if I am going to read. If I am going to watch a movie, I like ADVENTURES in the THEATRE but usually wait to see them on DVD due to the high cost of movies and we love to go BOWLING as a family. There is a BASKET by the CHAIR for when I KNIT.

On to the middle of the day where I find myself wondering what we'll have for lunch. I went to the store and paid CASH for groceries and I think we'll have BURGERS and COKE. Oh, and COOKIES for desert. Snacks today may include PRETZELS, a CHOCOLATE BAR or an ORANGE. And if the boys behave, I'll give them some GUM.

Moving on to DINNER, I'll have a BAKED potato with my SHRIMP and ICED TEA. CHOCOLATE ice cream would finish it out nicely.

I love my beach box, but would enjoy a small FARM (a summer home to get away from the tourist madness) complete with a LAKE aka "the swimmin' hole." Of course, the DOG would be right in there too and the clothes would be out on the CLOTHESLINE drying. The decor would be COUNTRY with nice HARDWOOD floors and lots of WOOD accessories and DAISIES growing all around. Although the summer is fun, I prefer OCTOBER and love the fall. However, if I had to pick my favorite season, it would be SPRING.

Looking back on each day, they are always HALF FULL. So as I go to bed, there will be a SONG in my heart!

Mrs. Goodneedle said...

Good to know you a little better. I'll take quilting barefoot in July any day, too!

Ellen said...

Dear B,
I am game lol
I like how Vanessa answered ya here so hear this:

LACE on my nightgowns tho you'll find RIBBONS in my hair...
I want to live on the BEACH but go to the MOUNTAINtop for eternity. I READ music and WRITE blog comments. I just had a weeks worth of birthday CAKEs. My birthday dinner had MASHED POTATO with citrus sauced grouper. Ya never would have guessed I dressed up as a MASHED POTATO for a my favorite thing party now would ya? ;)
I do the BACKstroke to the deep end and then the SIDEstroke to the shallow on all my laps. I like the way SHRIMP eyes go red like little lights when I am fishing at night.
When the shrimp are running I eat shrimp and grits with eggs for breakfast. I grew up calling SCRAMBLED eggs daddy eggs and FRIED eggs mommy eggs (cuz guess who ate different ones lol) I like SCRAMBLED egg sandwiches and FRIED eggs over easy so I can mop up the yolk with a biscuit lol.
There is only ORANGES and FLORIDA ORANGES... don't go believe that Texas CA and AZ propaganda they are not as sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet as me. ;)~
Tho apples do win in the pie contest lol
SSSSSSSSSSSSPRIIIIIING because the shrimp run, the oranges are harvested, and I love EASTER oooo that wasn't a question lol tho EASTER is the best of all holidays! Thank you Jesus!
Ooooo are you old enough to remember the necklace with you ROLLER SKATE key tied around your neck? Now the bowling alley is the hangout on our island...'cept on Sundays they are closed.
I like the big SILVERSCREEN and popcorn and coke for dinner that only a MOVIE THEATER provides. Our movies on the island are 3.50 for a matinee and 4.75 for at night. With a tub of popcorn for 2.75 I am busting buttons. So I better live in a WOOD house. I graduated from GOBIGBLUE UK! where CHOCOLATE was like a day of the week. I KNIT
EARLY MORNING and LATE at NIGHT.... Depends on which side of the day you are on ... sleeping in for me is doing about 5 hours. I like SWEET TEA especially when I am eating STRAWBERRY shortcake. I have 3 WATERMELONS growing right outside my back door. I have to plant them close4 to the house or the rascally raccoons snack on them before I get too for DINNER. I do eat capt crunch for dinner on choir nights when I am rushing to make practice on time. Nothing like singing a SONG with no food and your stomach decides to cut in and is trying to harmonize lol
I don't have carpets the hurricanes took them all. I talked Bman into putting in HARDWOOD on the kitchen floor and then wooden ya know (like the pun lol) the dishwasher leaked and warped it. My house is PINK and I have RED brick. We have 3 CATS and 3 DOGS. I eat PRETZELS at work and dip CHIPS in mango salsa at home. I think I already told ya make it SWEETTEA lol ooo and don't forget the coaster my glass is sweating in this heat.I'm reading a NONFICTION book right now... A Blistered kind of LOve. I picked it up when driving msDAISY. It is about a couple who wrote about SUNRISES and SUNSETS on the Pacific Coast Trail as they hike the length of it. They had to COMB the desert for water and had a BRUSH with a bear. When I was hiking on the Appalachian Trail, a bear stole our food just like Yogi and booboo did with the picnicBASKET. When we were leaving the trail I found a silver bracelet I still wear. I like PEN and PENCIL drawings. I am better with ink than with paint.I have been known to fall asleep while drawing in my CHAIR. I have even fallen asleep in a VICTORIAN rocker when I was writing a letter to my girlfriend who lives on the R&R RANCH. I had to be bribed when I was little to pull my hair back into a PONYTAIL. They promised me I could stay at the trampoline park as long as I kept my hair pulled back. Jumping up and down is better than getting any CASH prize.
I use my saved coins now to keep a JELLYBEAN jar on my desk filled. I have a CHOCOLATe basket too but the secretary always is eating my reeses cups. If I have the choice I choose Dr.Pepper or RC over coke or pepsi. I gave my husband a hat that says HOTDOG on it. I live waaay back in the swamp. I don't have curtains yet made I do have bamboo blinds outside to block the sun from hitting one of our gilligan huts. I won my 2nd ebay auction on my birthday for a JamsWorldDRESS. The MOON makes me want to ADVENTURE down to the lagoon to fish. There on the dock I wish upon a STAR. We live on an island that is between what they call two RIVERS. But it is really a bay... estuary... my glass is always FULL of sweet tea remember lol
I have a red TRUCK and a blue CAR. I need to go take a BATH, I forgot the beachtowels are out on the CLOTHESLINE again... they lose their NEW look tho they get pretty stiff...when they hang out in the saltspray for days. Sure glad I am chewing GUM because I really hungry and I still have to write my THANKYOU NOTES for my birthday gifts... before JULY. Did I tell ya I bought new SHOES with my birthday $$$?
Bonnie did this game run you off to sleep lol it was way loooooooooong
