Teresa
I loved the post I did on Getting to Know YOU and got great responses. ...and I AM in the process of checking out all those blogs. I promise to visit everyone. Babies have been taking some of my blogging time. And you can probably tell that in our home BABIES RULE ! This will be a way for me to know you just a little better...so let me see your list of dont's in my comments .... ..Monday, Parker will be home from Destin and I will let him pick a number. I will mail you a "Surprise Box" later in the week. So let's call this a
Mini Giveaway, just for participating in the fun. ( Are you beginning to see that I love to GIVE AWAY SURPRISES?)
"I Don't"
Here is a list of 10 "Dont's" that come to mind. Let's stick to TEN! I could probably list 1000.
1. I don't get up before 10 most mornings. (I am sorry..I know some people consider that a sin)
2. I don't go to bed before 2 most nights.
3. I don't cook
4. I don't go to bed until everything is picked up.
5. I don't EVER mind a grandchild spending the night. ( I have that little 18 month old Jack safe in the crib in his room at our house tonight..nothing sweeter. I bet I cover him up 2o times before I go to bed and I let Celine's lullaby album play all night.
6. I don't really like to drive, would always prefer somebody else to do the driving.
7. I don't like to run errands...(my husband loves a list and does not mind at all, which is such a blessing)
8. I don't ever tire of Disney TRIPS.
9. I don't ever let the laundry pile up. I like everything clean.
10. I don't like to iron or PAINT !
Now I would love for you to share your list with ME. I really do want to get to know my readers......Not just your name but who you really are...I was thinking about my five closest real life friends and I could easily write 10 things they "Don't Do"! .....I am looking forward to your answers..and in the process you might win a prize.
and if you missed my last post, take a look below at our little miracle!

5. ...remember to take my vitamins (like you, Bacardi Mama, and it drives my hubby buggy!)

...oh one more... like you Teresa- I DON'T EVER mind a grandbaby spending the night (don't have any yet, but I totally agree with you on this! ...can't wait!)

Hi there, I am Daveda from over at Grace Talk With Daveda
1. I don't like the cold weather...at all!
2. I don't like liver...blah!
3. I don't have the stomach to look at, smell or clean up vomit: this is always my husbands job.
4. I don't like religion, meaning another mans list's of rights and wrongs that are imposed upon my walk with God as an individual.
5. I don't like hanging out with people who "suck the life out of you" but I will occasionally,if I feel lead to :)
6. I don't like driving around all day going from place to place. After 3 stops I've had enough, most of the time.
7. I don't like it when I feel grouchy, I am usually always happy.
8. I don't like to have to get up early.
9. I don't like the sound of styrofoam being rubbed together. Just thinking about it makes my teeth hurt!

Here goes!
1) I don't drink carbonated beverages
2) I don't like cigarette smoke
3) I don't like having my kids back home...they are old enough to have their own...and I loved the "empty nest"
4) I don't like the "f" word
5) I don't like doing laundry
6) I don't like snakes...when my kids asked me if they could have one, I told them that they could have a snake or a Mom...and the snake would probably not do their laundry or feed them, so they needed to make a wise choice!
7) I don't like mice
8) I don't like (interpret this as "hate") cleaning the toilet after 3 grown men!
9) I don't like food with "high fructose corn syrup" (it burns my throat)
10) I don't make my bed on week days (my retired husband is usually in it, when I leave for work)
Thanks for hosting this, Teresa! It is a wonderful way for us to get to know each other! Blessings!

I don't like sweets or pie, don't like pulling weeds, don't listen to the radio in the car, and I don't like rainy days. This is a fun post!

Hey Teresa - I love this idea and am making a list of all the great blog ideas I'm going to steal when I get enough readers to really make it count.
My 10 don't do's:
1. I don't like really cold weather but I don't like really hot weather either. Spring and Fall are my favorite months.
2. I don't like grocery shopping. Right now my hubby does it all.
3. I don't do a lot of things that I once did because my health won't permit me. That list would be way too long.
4. Some days I don't get dressed. That doesn't mean I run around naked, I just don'e get out of my jammies.
5. I don't call my children as often as I should. I like to wait for them to call me. It just means more to me.
6. I don't read nearly enough.
7. I don't exercise either.
8. I don't keep a very clean house. It's neat, but not real clean. When people come to visit, I tell them they can write their names in the dust if they want to, just don't date it. (I do keep clean bathrooms. Hate a dirty bathroom.)
9. I don't iron unless it's absolutely necessary. That what a dryer is for.
10. I don't watch the news on a daily basis. If it's really important stuff, my hubby will tell me about it. I either get angry or depressed when I see what this world is doing.
Thanks again. Sorry for the commentary but that's what happens when you find a writer.
God Bless,
Mimmy

2) I don't like going to sleep early (no matter how early I have to get up the next day)
3) I don't like camping, but I love hiking
4) I don't like heights (I become very irrational when I am anyplace that is high... in fact, my first instinct would be to jump off a roller coaster instead of just enjoying the ride).
5) I don't like to study, but I love school
6) I don't like to clean, but I love having a clean house
7) I don't like wearing on a whole lot of make-up (I never wear foundation or mascara)
8) I don't like to drive in the snow
9) I don't like bugs (and I was scared of most animals - including dogs and cats - up until I was 21-years-old)
10) I don't like road trips but I love traveling and seeing new places

Hello there. You popped over to my blog to ask how to get started on your Mac...honestly, open up the box, sit down and spend a couple of hours playing on it. Even if you just set up your google homepage and put up your google reader, bookmark some of your favorites, etc. Anything you do on it will make you more comfortable. So if all you do to start is get on the internet everything else will evolve from there. You will catch on...it is so user friendly. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any other questions. :)
Meghan
Well, my husband had a Mac before I got my Mac laptop and I had kind of learned my way around it. I asked him where would be a good start for you and he suggested either A) going to an Apple store, as they will let you bring your own computer, or use theirs, and they will literally teach you, step by step, how to do pretty much anything on the computer. Not sure where you are though so I don't know if there is an Apple store there. or B) try out their web site. I looked and if you go to this link http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/
you can click around and there are tutorials on pretty much everything. He even said the Apple site has video tutorials on how to do things. Hope that helps!! Don't hesitate to ask other questions or if you have particular things you need help on, ask away!!
1. I don't enjoy exercise; but have been convicted that I need to exercise.
2. I don't mind rising before the chickens!

8. I don't tire of my youngest experimenting in the kitchen.

I dont like to mop. DO NOT!!!
I dont like getting up in the morning because most nights I have vivid dreams and I always wonder how it would have ended if I had stayed asleep.
I don't like getting dressed to go ANYWHERE because I have clothing issues and although it seems as if my closet is full, I never seem to have the right thing to wear.
I don't like riding in the car for long periods of time....all my bones start hurting.
I don't like it when the phone rings....I guess I have issues there too.

I just read on my blog (starlightmommy) that you had read my comment on a Mac computer.
Let me tell you....pull that thing out of the box. Sure it's not the same as a PC but it is just as easy to use.
I actually love that a Mac is truly less complicated (once you learn it) then a PC. A Mac does not get infected by spyware, viruses, and other nasty stuff that PC's usually do. It can happen but not as likely.
I have been using a mac almost exclusive for the past 7 years and I won't go back to a PC for my personal at home or laptop type computer.
Break the seal, open the box......you won't regret it.
Thank you for your sweet comment - I love your cute blog!
