4 THINGS ABOUT 3 SISTERS

Two of my older sisters sent me this little survey, almost simultaneously, and I was amused by the similarities of some of our answers... and the extreme differences in others.  I think its safe to say that we get along much better as adults... living in separate states, then we did growing up (hey, not my fault... I was the SWEET one!)  I'm sure there's something to the fact that they both chose screen names of beautiful animals, while I am named after a pint of really bad beer!  And how come I never got to see Ann of Green Gables?  Where was I when the family watched it, huh?

Ok I want to know who goes to Iowa for VACATION?!  I lived in Iowa for 7 years and have to go back periodically for visiting relatives.  But I wouldn't go back if it weren't for that.  Pretty dull state.

My brother sent me something similar to this a month or two ago.  It was eerie how alike we are!  I did the survey thingie from your journal in my own journal.  Here is a link to the entry:  http://journals.aol.com/motoxmom72/GinasWeigtLossJourney/entries/459  
Thanks for sharing!
Hugs,

Aha! So you answer us in your blog! Well, I guess you know we go there every day.
Anne of Green Gables came to us by PBS. I then went to the library and read the whole series of books. The books tell us ever so much more, but the movies are very well done. I hope you can get to see them. Redbird and I found ours between WalMart and Sam's Club. You didn't miss anything at home. Stop feeling left out.

I LOVE your imagination ... especially that part about you being the SWEET one ... in your dreams, darling, in your dreams!  Some items actually were impossible to list JUST FOUR, and some spots (for me) were impossible to even come up with four!  It was a fun survey ... thanks for taking the time out to totally surprise me by answering!  *hugs to all* ~ Redbird
