• Get organized!
• Save some money to buy a house
• Maybe take a gander at doing an uber-list this year?
  

What are you thankful for?

My amazing daughter and wonderful husband.  My family and friends.  My awesome kitchen so that I can make a kick-ass meal for all of my loved ones.

How many computers do you have in your house? 
Submitted by Foomper.

This is so sad, but we usually have 4-5 computers in our house.  My husband has a Powerbook, I have a regular old PC and my daughter has a PC.  In addition to that I usually have a (very old and well worn) laptop for work and my husband has a laptop for work.  So, yeah we would clearly die without our computers.  We also are totally addicted to high speed internet and completely lose it when our access goes down (which thankfully does not happen very often).

What are 5 things you'd like to accomplish in the next 5 years?

1. Buy a house
2. Save up a bunch of money for the kid's college fund
3. Save up some more money for a future business venture with my husband
4. Decide for once and for all what I want to be when I grow up and take action
5. Become more politically active in my community

What is your favorite way to relieve stress?

Probably knitting, except when I am knitting on a deadline, and then it is stress inducing.  Right now I am totally stressed out about the rest of the wedding planning (along with all of the other stressors of life).  But since I am knitting a sweater type thingy for my wedding, I am under deadline, which only adds to the stress.  I used to do pilates.  That was a great stress reliever.  I plan on getting back to it soon

What's your favorite way to keep in touch? Phone, snail mail, email, text message, Vox, _____ ?

I love reading friends' blogs, whether they are from vox or from somewhere else.  But that is a more passive means of keeping in touch.  My preferred method is the phone, as I am a "phone person" and love the interaction. However, I typically use email because I'm not usually in a position to have long phone conversations.  I wish I was more of a letter writer ... but I never have been and probably never will be.
