    Writer's Block: Do you check your stars?

    Do you believe in astrology? If so, how often do you check your horoscope and how does it impact your life? If not, do you get annoyed when people make assumptions about you based on your sign?

    do i believe in astrology? No. I read the horoscopes for all my family every day in the newspaper, because I often find them funny when comparied to the actual people. The one that said "new horizens will unfold for you today" on the date of my grandson's birth was a hoot, and in that case right on!!

    Writer's Block: Lights Out

    All it takes is a blackout to realize how much we rely on electricity. What's your most memorable story from a power outage?


    View 501 Answers

    we had a rather memorable blackout this January, during a bad windstorm. A quick explanation--I'm handicapped and need a walker to get around, plus I weight over 300 lbs and have limited use on my rt leg. In the middle of the night I got up to find the lights were out and it was pitch black. I tripped and fell flat on my face. I can't climb stairs so I have my bedroom downstairs and everyone else was upstairs. So there I was, laying flat on my face, yelling "Help!! I've fallen and can't get up" etc etc, without anyone stirring, til at last, Agentmiss's dog Owen started barking and he woke Rachel Sheyelled at Witchofnovember to come quick. They got some flashlights rounded up, and came to see that I'm kinda wedged in by my bed. They called 911, and got their dad up. The firemen came clomping in in their big jacketes and boots!! (I love firemen, they clomp in and cheerfully get things streightened out!) They somehow got a sling and then a chair under me. After checking all my parts, I sent those wonderful firemen on their way. I've got a hospital bed with the knees and head up in kind of a V. Ray managed to help me into bed, and we sat there talking for while. The daughters had gone back to bed and Ray was going when we heard this loud crack. I said "What was that!!??" Ray said something like "it's 4 in the morning and I don't care" The next morning the power is back on, and Ray comes into my bedroom with his camera, and said "I've found out what the crack was" and showeed me a picture of the top 25 feet or so of our sprucetree had broken off and was laying accross Witchofnovemer's little truck, that she loved, and which was totaled!!

    Writer's Block: First Aid

    When you have to study or get work done, what music (if any) do you put on to help you concentrate?


    View 506 Answers

    Motzart Yes, I was at a swimming pool durig swimmong lessons for the kids in a very small town. My kids were taking lessonss and I was waitiong to take an adult lesson. There was a class of little kids (4 or 5 years old) in the shallow end and in the deep end older kids about 10 or 11 were jumpin in, one at a time and swimming to the other side, to show how well they could swim, when a kid got to the edge and called to the coach "Hey, there's somebody on the bottom!" The coach dove in and pulled the boy out. He was gray and not breathing. He started yelling at the other teacher, and I yelled at him "do you know CPR?" and when he said yes, I yelled "Get started" and got down and chedked for a pulse, which was absent. The coach started rescue breathing , and I did heart compressions. After we got about 3 breaths into him his heart started beating. This happened over 30 year ago, and I can still feel those first sharp beats under my hands!! He then puked and started breathing again. We put him in the back of someone's pick up so we could do more CPR if he stopped breathing and took him to the town's little company hospital (6 whole beds, a whole 6 0r 7 blocks away-on the other side of town--I did mention the was a small town) He was still unconscious when we got there, but his color was much better. While this all went on his sister had run from the pool home and told their mom that he had drowned. When she got to the ER, her color was worse that his. I'm happy to say he was up and running around a couple of days later. The strange thing about the experience is that the time there wasn't more then 15 or 16 people in the pool. The kids were i the deep end only one at a time, and about 7 or8 of us mothers were standing around waiting for our lesson, and NO one saw him go into the water!!

    What is the most annoying sound in the entire world?


    View 500 Answers

    the phone ringing during the wee hours of the night on a night you've STUPIDLY said you'd be on call! It still makes me cring to think about those nights, when the phone would ring and my husband and I would both answer the phone both of us thinking 'please let it be for him/her, and not me.

    Writer's Block: Deal or No Deal

    What's on your list of dealbreakers when it comes to romantic relationships?


    View 501 Answers

    A prime dealbreaker would be for one of the pair to be married--to someone else (and as I've been married for acouple of years to my only romantic relation, that crosses me off [We've only been married a while--coming up on 47 yeears] as a part in a new romantic relationship. A 2nd deal breaker is a smoker!! A man who didn't amuse me is off the list too. got to have a sense of humor!! and he'd have to like my family and animals--'cause someone who said"me or the 'dog;cat;family member etc' " would hear me say me Good-bye" and a republican and/or religiously devotee.

    Writer's Block: If Animals Could Talk

    If you could ask your pet any question (and they could answer you), what would it be?

    Submitted By [info]frisinator


    View 501 Answers

    Our dog came from the shelter, and if I could ask him what happened to him before he came here. I would also like to ask the people who owned him how they could let this very friendly people-oriented-set in your lap dog just wander around for three weeks without apparently even looking for him. He'd been in the shelter for 4 days to make sure his owned wouldn't show up. Then waiting for people to see him, and for us to adopt him, wait to be nuetered and for him to be with us for a week, before she wandered to see if he was there!!

    When Witchofnovember and her younger brother were little I used to play with them and say "you'd better watch out, the Mothermonster is going to get you and give you a kiss!" and they would run down the hall or livingroom, etc laughing and giggling while I chased them, and the name just stuck.
