Welcome to Sunday Stealing. Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. Cheers to all of us thieves!
Impetua is
the blogger who delivered us this mother lode of meme questions. They were
originally stolen from someone named Mel, whose blog no longer exists. We took
50+ questions and made it 20 questions over two weeks. (Boy, are they ever
random!)
Memememe -- Part 2
11. You can build a dream house anywhere in the world. Where
would it be located? This is a great question. I have two answers and can't decide which one -- I love our gulf coast and I would love a dream house on the water . . .but I don't like hurricanes haha! Mark and I both fell in love with Ireland when we were there in 2021. We would like to build a dream house in Glenbeigh in County Kerry, Ireland.
12. Have you ever taken a photo in a photo booth? Yes! When I was a teenager, we always took photos in photo booths where we crammed ourselves behind the curtain and four tiny photos came out of the dispenser. Today's photo booths are much more fun. This was at our nephew's wedding back in May.
13. What's your favorite kind of mustard (dijon, spicy
brown, bright yellow)? My favorite is the very hot mustard from the Chinese restaurant -- on an eggroll!! I'm not talking about the little packet . . . I'm talking about the one that you have to ask them and it comes in a little plastic cup. It will blow the top of your head off and clean out your sinuses!! Mark and I both like mustard - dijon, yellow, all of the mustards.
14. What did you do on New Year's Eve? You are kidding, right? hahaha! This is the end of September. I'm having a hard time remembering what I did last week. I just looked back on my blog and we evidently had a few people over on New Year's Eve. As I scrolled through posts . . .oh my goodness, I had forgotten all that happened between June of 2024 and March of 2025. Wow.
15. Did your parents ever share memories of their high
school days? I don't remember them sharing about high school. My daddy dropped out and then got his GED. He was so smart. He could do all of our math and algebra in his head. My mom was Valedictorian of her class. She was living at a boarding school . . .which is a very long story in and of itself.
16. What's the most famous thing to happen in your home
town? The first thing that popped into my head was the fact that some movies have been made here. We have some famous people who call Alabama home. The most famous thing is a very sad thing -- the 16th Street Baptist Church Bombing back in 1963.
17. Did you ever have a MySpace page? I can't remember if I had a MySpace page . . .but I did have some page where I could write journal-ish types of entries.
18. Will you eat a cookie today? I ate two Alyssa's Oatmeal cookies for breakfast -- no sugar!! You can buy them at Publix and they are so good.
19. Who is the last person you spoke to – not texted with –
on the phone? Does FaceTime count? Actually, I just talked to Mark when he came in from the garage. I did FaceTime with our daughter an hour or so ago.
20. Do you play poker? I don't play poker, but I can play poker. We have played over the years. Actually, our son learned to do math problems while playing poker. He then went to school and taught his friends. His teacher sent a message home . . ."did you know that Glenn is teaching the other boys to play poker?" oops!

Your dream house answer made me laugh Florida sunshine vs. Irish green hills, tough choice. It’s sweet that your dad was a math whiz and your mom valedictorian that balance says a lot. And teaching math through poker? Genius and hilarious all at once
ReplyDeleteRe: NYE- that is PRECISELY WHY we have blogs. I cite myself often, including today. Even in Binghamton, NY, I remember the church bombing clearly; I was 10 at the time. (Sometimes I conflated the words Binghamton and Birmingham)
ReplyDeleteGreat blog
ReplyDeletePlease read my post
ReplyDeleteI have not had my picture taken at a wedding photo booth yet. We do those at our school though. Loved your answers! Have a great day!

I, too, love mustard ... especially that which comes in those cunning little packets at the Chinese restaurant.
ReplyDeleteThat's too funny about your son tutoring via poker!
The minute I read about the most famous/infamous thing that happened here, my mind immediately went to the 16th Street Church bombing.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid we crammed as many people in a photo booth as we could. Which meant there was always someone with just a nose and eye or an arm in the picture.
Cute photo of the two of you from the wedding! Can I come visit you when you build your dream home in Ireland?? :)
ReplyDeleteHa ... my boys learned to play poker from friends, I do not know how to play.
ReplyDeleteHappy Almost October.
