Very interesting and insightful answers. I like the last one very much... happy with what you have. Bravo!

PS: thank you for not tagging me. I'm usually not a willing game player.

Very interesting answers. I'll have to try the "not worry about things you have no control over". ;-)

You know, I wouldn't even have been able to complete this: I don't have TV!

I, too, would be unable to answer in several categories but I enjoyed reading your answers.

Joe Todd said...

I like your answers so I think I'll take the day for a short "Road Trip" LOL

Lowell said...

You got tagged, too!

I'll give you credit, though, for doing a very good job answering the questions.

Rose said...

I enjoyed this...I may play too, but will tell you later if I do.

Betsy Banks Adams said...

Interesting Mary Beth. I love reading these things since I learn so much about you that way. It's ironic that I have been blogging with some people for a year now---and don't even know their name.... Some people just post a picture (or do those memes) --and one can't really get to know them. I think that is kinda sad... Glad I know you though!!!!!!

Great post.
Hugs,
Betsy

All of your answers were interesting, but your answer to the last list is profound. You have found the secret to true happiness.

EG CameraGirl said...

I enjoyed reading this so much, MB!

I'm not surprised that you are happy with what you have. That's one of the things I really like about you.

Louis la Vache said...

Hey, MB! Since you like snow, you can have «Louis's» share as well!

Like Chuck, «Louis» is not a willing game player and, also like him, Bravo for your last answer!

;-)

Don and Krise said...

Very nice Mary Beth. Thanks again for taking the time.
I think your answers were right on.

Hilda said...

I love your answers to the "8 things I learned from the past" and I completely agree with them. God bless you for being such a loving and kind person.

Lois said...

I get to do this too, but it's taking me a little while to think up my answers!
