Re: Monday Random Poll
1. If you had one week off to do anything you wanted (money not a problem) what would you do? I would travel to Ireland or go on a cruise.
2. What will you be having for lunch today? Not sure yet, we are going to Ikea so something on the way there probably
3. Who cooks more at your house you or SO? Me, he is a horrible cook
4. Do you like to shop in stores or online? Online!
5. Are you taking a vacation this year? Where? Don't know if we will be able to yet (depends on taxes) but I would like to take a cruise this spring.

1. If you had one week off to do anything you wanted (money not a problem) what would you do? Disney World! Yes, I am serious. No, I do not have any children. DH and I love drinking our way around Epcot.
2. What will you be having for lunch today? Working from home today so probably leftovers from dinner last night.
3. Who cooks more at your house you or SO? I LOL'd at this. The only thing my SO knows how to make is rice and popcorn! Me for sure
4. Do you like to shop in stores or online? Both. If it's a store where I'm sure of my size I'll shop online, otherwise in store. I did almost all of my Christmas shopping online because I found great deals.
5. Are you taking a vacation this year? Where? Jamaica! Never been, very excited.

1. If you had one week off to do anything you wanted (money not a problem) what would you do? Go to Europe
2. What will you be having for lunch today? Most likely I will only have time to go through a drive-through (have to have b/w done during lunch) so that means either BK or Wendy's, since Mc.D's is too far out of the way
3. Who cooks more at your house you or SO? Me. DH can't even cook rice.
4. Do you like to shop in stores or online? Both. In stores gives me the instant gratification as well as being able to try stuff on. Online = not having that initial shock when they tell you the total. I also Google for promo/coupon codes, so I always get good deals.
5. Are you taking a vacation this year? Where? Nope. I'm hoping I'm KU soon so that will mean that all my vacation time will go towards ensuring I get full pay during half of my maternity leave.

1. If you had one week off to do anything you wanted (money not a problem) what would you do? go to some fabulous tropical resort with DH and do nothing.

3. Who cooks more at your house you or SO? me!

5. Are you taking a vacation this year? Where? just three or four days to see my parents in arizona in march, but that's not really a vacation, lol. other than that, nothing planned, boo.
1. If you had one week off to do anything you wanted (money not a problem) what would you do? I would go on a much needed vacation with DH.

3. Who cooks more at your house you or SO? DH does 90% of the cooking in our house.
