What is my favorite type of shows to watch? Good thing they are on ALL the time.?

Good luck

Laura,
I'm guessing the Home & Garden shows. I'm always recording them on the DVR. I have so many ideas on what I want to do this year, I've changed ideas/plans many times!

Deb

Ummm I'll be the odd one this time & guess.......cartoons.
later...April/dirt

I will guess cooking shows.

Laura,
When you mentioned your mission trip I thought maybe that would be a good guess. My husband is a PK also. I think my favorite things are earrings and I love any color of the rainbow. Thank you, Amy

Amy-You are on a roll girl...You should go buy some lottery tickets before your luck runs out. LOL

All the good guesses have been taken so I will say Game Shows.

Shirley

I'll say reality shows, maybe?

not right yet, but there are many of them. I mean different branches of the shows.. I can watch them over and over and over.

Comedys??

Is it CSI? It has several branches....
later...April/dirt

Yeah April
you are the winner.

I love them all CSI, SVU, Cold Case any of them reruns or not I can watch them all.
You win..
let me know what you'd like.

Now keeping that in mind, I am a Nurse Pract. I have been for 5 years, I have recently taken up college again. I am still going to be and NP, but I will be able to explore the world of my favorite shows when I am done.
What am I studying?

Laura

Carol (veeja11),

I sent you an e-mail (subject line, "joining OBF?"). Please let me know whether you do/don't receive it! Thanks! :-)

--Amy (aka Rose... hmm, maybe I should use my nickname to prevent confusion, since there's already another Amy? lol)

Laura,
A medical examiner, licensed pathologist?

Deb

Umm....a coroner??

ohh all those were thoughts, but I really wanted to keep the Nursing part in it and both of those you have to be a Doctor....

Forensic nurse???
later...April

am i allowed to guess this one, lil sis?
if so, i say a midwife unless of course you already . (maybe you are already that???)

maryanne

Wow Amy Congrats again!!!

Laura,
My best friend who I used to live with before I got married who is now out in Oregon is a Med Tech. She does all the testing of anything that comes from your body really(yuk! and yes she would come home with gross stories that she loved to tell, lol) and looks at all the slides and stuff. Are you studying that kind of work?
Remy

Hi All....Looks like you all have been having alot of fun not having a swap :)

forensic pathologist? Just a wild guess. I know nothing about the medical field.

I have been hosting a ton of company this past week and a half. I am exhausted! I had 7 people staying over in addition to my own family. 3 of them were young kids. I did get to go visit my garden and take some pics though....

{{gwi:1259913}}

{{gwi:841469}}

{{gwi:1259914}}

That last one is in our pool deck area....need to add more containers and spruce these up some. Any suggestions?

-T

wow, Dirt wins again.

Yes I am studing to be a forensic nurse practitioner. Pretty cool.
I think that at least the studies are so cool and maybe I will once Max gets in school be able to get back into the ER... Love it.

Hmm .. Yes Maryanne you can guess now your time out is over.

If I could grow or be just one kind of plant, what would I choose to be.. Not color not specific name, just class...
and tell me why you think so..

beans

I don't know the class, but I'll guess and say you'd be a vine. Most vines look very delicate & fragile...and produce flowers that are dainty & sweet...but they are really very tough and resilient boogers. Growing upward & clinging to whatever they can & need to to be able to reach the sky.
You strike me as that kind of woman. :O)

Melissa

Hmm Melissa~ I'll give it to you.. But can anyone be more specific..?

It's my favorite.....

WOOO HOOO I've won....AGAIN! I like braclets and earrings. Dark blue,black & silver shades are my favorite.
For the next question...I'll pick Clematis, because you seem to have ALOT of those on your list.
Later....April/dirt

Clematis?

Never mind...April said that!! LOL! I need to read more carefully!! LOL
How bout a Morning Glory?? :O)

Congrats, April!! You so totally rock at these games, girlfriend!!! Woo-Hoo!!1 :O)

April---Congratulations.....Another win.

Melissa-I bet you are right. I remember Laura liking clematis.

I will guess Dahlia.

Shirley

Yes, Bunny, it is clematis. The reason is youcan plant the tiniest roots. First year no show second year no show and then the third year Bam all the color, flowers and show just for being patient.
The plant needs time to set roots so that it can grow stronger and provide a better top show. Which the top likes to shine yet the roots need to be shaded and hide in the background, so while the top growth is getting all the praise, it's really the roots who are the powerhouse.

ok one more for me.. I will be up forever a night making these.

here's an easy one.. If you have already won please let someone else have a chance.

My parents have been married for many years, and they were blessed with how many children?
