High Five

It's not a secret that Matt isn't a regular part of this blog.  Here's a quick peek into his brain.  His answers are in black - mine in red.


1.  What's your favorite book?
Animal Farm.  Seriously?  I wanted to die when I read that book in 8th grade.  I don't think I understood it.  I'm not even sure I finished it.  My favorite is Love Story.  So much better than Animal Farm.

2.  What's the next project you want to do on the house?
I think this winter we're going to do the retaining wall and refinish the grill.  I agree with this.  It won't be as hot to do things in the winter so I'd rather crank those out this fall instead of doing them in the heat of July.  I would also like to organize the garage.

3.  What trick would you like to teach the dogs?
Stop barking at imaginary things.  A couple months ago I bought a Hula-Hoop to teach them to jump through.  I haven't really don't much teaching so maybe I can work on that.  I think it'd be cute.

4.  Where do you want to go on vacation next?
I don't know.  Wherever you want to go.  Some place with brown signs.  Somewhere with a beach and somewhere alone.  Matt and I haven't been on vacation without another dog or person since our honeymoon.  Yes. Please.

5.  How did you like being a single parent while I was gone?
They were actually surprised by how good the girls were.  Nigel's always good so I was surprised by how easy it was.  Matt had the 3 dogs for a couple days while Katy and I went to Las Vegas.  I was pleasantly surprised how well he did being Mr. Mom.
