It’s On in Tennessee

                      

 

It’s on in Tennessee! The Tennessee Volunteers (#2 in the Nation) are playing the Memphis Tigers (#1 in the Nation) in men’s basketball in Memphis at the FedEx Forum.

     

I am not a huge fan of basketball but watch it often since I live with a Sports Nut! I really love watching The Lady Vols play basketball.  I have really enjoyed watching the Tennessee Vols men’s basketball since Bruce Pearl (head coach) arrived on the scene!

              

Jedd went to play cards and watch the ballgame elsewhere and I am still watching the game.  It is so exciting and intense! Whew! My friend, Gina, lives in Memphis~so we know who she is rooting for: Memphis Tigers-lol. Of course I am rooting for the Tennessee Volunteers, but whatever the outcome~it’s a great feeling to know that the top two teams in the Nation are right here in Tennessee! Woohoo!

                  

Saturday Six

          

 

      

Here is another Saturday meme I will be participating in. This is the Saturday Six at Patrick’s Place. Patrick has a theme each Saturday that includes six questions about that theme. One of the questions includes a quiz (like blogthings). I like this meme, I just wish that today it had been posted yesterday or at least early this morning.  Enjoy.

              

1. When you’re going to have a regular glazed doughnut, do you prefer it hot, cold or room temperature?

Ooohhhh~Jedd and I love hot, fresh glazed doughnuts from Krispy Kreme. We always try to find some when we are on vacation.

       

2. If you see a box of a dozen doughnuts, and there are no objections from the others in the room, can you stop at just one doughnut?

Yes I can, unless Jedd and I are alone and we just picked up some hot fresh glazed doughnuts-lol!

             

3. Which spelling do you prefer for the treat: doughnut or donut? Which do you see most often?

It doesn’t really mater to me. Doughnuts~Unless it is Dunkin’ Donuts!

               

4. Take the quiz: What Donut are You?

You Are a Glazed Donut

Okay, you know that you’re plain – and you’re cool with that.You prefer not to let anything distract from your sweetness.Your appeal is understated yet universal. Everyone digs you.And in a pinch, you’ll probably get eaten.

       

5. When was the last time you had this specific kind of donut?

It actually has been awhile. I’m guessing almost a year when we went to Gatlinburg.

                

6. If you worked in a donut store, and had to make them as part of your job, how long do you think it would take you – if at all – to become sick of even looking at a donut?

Years ago~like about 15ish, I did work at The Donut Palace. I never knew until then that most doughnuts were fried. And to see the huge box of lard/grease we put in the deep fryer really grossed me out. It took me awhile before I actually started eating doughnuts again. Of course, that was during my major obsession with weight and exercise. Those days are definitely gone now-LOL!

The Thursday Threesome

          

                 

Ok~I’ve found another Daily Meme I will be doing each week. This one is The Thursday Threesome (sounds kinky-lol). This is a neat meme. Each week there is a different Three word title and each word is listed in consecutive order with a descriptive of the word rolling into a question. I know it isn’t Thursday, but I had to do this one (2-14-08) now because I really liked it!  

       

~Tea For Two~      

         

Onesome: Tea– leaves and fortune tellers? Is there anything you do out of habit because of old sayings? …like not stepping on cracks or staying home on Friday the Thirteenth? …or eating chocolate on Valentine’s Day <g>?

              

• I don’t split a pole or anything that can come between me and whoever I am walking with. For example, Jedd and I are walking and we get to a pole~I make sure we both walk on the same side.         

• I X (cross) out black cats that cross my path when I am driving.            

• If I go through an intersection and the light is yellow about to turn red, I kiss my hand and touch the roof of my car.              

• When a clock has the time of the same numbers (3), such as 1:11/2:22/3:33/4:44/5:55~I hold my right ear and make a wish until the time changes!            

• I have been doing these things since high school. Not sure why on some, but my friends and I always did them.               

            

Twosome: for– every time you make it to work or class or an appointment on time, how many times are you late? Just curious…

I am always right on time for work-lol. Appointments~not so good at that. I am on time about half of the time-gotta work on that!

                      

Threesome: Two– weeks and the next day is only there twenty-five percent of the time! Does Leap Year have any special meaning to you? …or is it just one more day of the week? 

Leap Year is very special to me. My brothers and I were all born in consecutive leap years. My older brother was born in 1968. I was born in 1972. My younger brother was born in 1976~Bicentennial Year!
