Do you prefer living in the city, suburbs or country?
Would people say you have an accent?
What was your college major?
A few years ago I'd have said rural country. But having lived in all three in the last few years I've seen a lot of good in all of them. A good suburbs, in a more rural area with trails and a neighborhood playground/pool/family area. The community space is REALLY nice.
When I lived in the carbines a few friends would pick on my accent. According to a MI friend I do... According to all my northeast friends I do not. ;-)
If you could travel to another time period when would it be and why?
If money wasn't an object, what would your dream job be?
I'd love to travel back to the Wild West and see the country for real. Plus being with a horse 24/7 would be great.
Dream job? I'd hire a hell of a editor to fix up my random dropped letters/words/punctuation when I'm writing rapidly and I'd see if I could become an author.
Would you rather have pictures and stories about all of your ancestors 8 generations in the past, or all of your descendants 8 generations in the future?
Whoa! I'm way behind again. Keep asking and I'll catch up a bit later. I've got a play date with a friend this morning and DH is actually home and distracting me.
For now I'm going to tag the lovely @keags5496 for the next AMA.

Oh boy you're all in for a treat! I "kid".... Ill post later on after Rondack finishes and when it's a little quieter. I have a play date this morning too!
Awwww, she's so sweet! I'm sorry about her passing . Kego passed a few years ago. Did Knarla like people? (Kego didn't really like to be held) How did you come up with her name? Also, did you get her from a breeder?
She loved people. She'd ride in DS's trucks and snuggle with us.
We got her as an abused/neglected rescue. She had lost her eyes and was thin and covered in poop and pee. Here she is playing in DS's trucks. He misses her so much.
If you could go back in time what would you tell 13 year old Rondack?
To calm down about following the rules and relax a bit... But I wouldn't want to change a thing about my life. I've had some hard shit but it's all made me who I am. Perhaps to skip the southern comfort shot at the alpha sig party that one night. Puking is no fun.
So young Rondack followed the rules. Did you ever have detention? Stay out past your curfew? Sneak out of the house? Now that you have your DD, do you want her to follow all the rules like you or be more of a free spirit?
What is your favorite activity (indoors and outdoors) to do with the LOs
either individually or together?
What is your favorite season?
I love to go to musuems as an indoor activity and to hike with them. At home we like to play with snap circuits and play dough and just do water play or sled in the backyard.
My favorite season is fall. The colors, the smell, Halloween...
Would you rather have pictures and stories about all of your ancestors 8 generations in the past, or all of your descendants 8 generations in the future?
I'd want the past. I want to be surprised by the future and my life and I don't want to know any sadness ahead of time.
My cousin had one, I was never sure they would actually make a good pet. Seeing the picture of your's in the toy truck, I was clearly wrong.
So here's my question: What other animal have you had that people might not think would make a good pet but did? Bonus points for pics.
I haven't owned them, only pet sat for them and played with friend's pets, but I'd love a rat or a snake. Rats are SO smart and fun and snakes can have wonderful personalities and are so pretty.

I never had detention and never stayed out or snuck out or skipped class. I was GOOD.
I want my DD to be happy. I was anxious about breaking the rules. I'd love if she would choose to follow the rules because she wanted to and they made sense to her, but I also want her to stand up for herself if some rules do not make sense. I want her to learn to trust her instincts and learn the appropriate behavior varies depending on your surroundings and how to treat others and herself well. I want the same for my son.

Chicken soup for the pet lovers soul. I fed the hedgie a blend of that and blue buffalo and diamond cat food.
I love my ergo, but the mei tai is my favorite.
I'll be in the Adirondacks with the kids next week!
This was Knarla.
You can have all my grape jolly ranchers. They're my least favorite!

Maybe I didn't see this above, but would you get another hedgehog?
My favorite season is fall. The colors, the smell, Halloween... I don't use scented candles. The KEMICULLS!
Travel is the big part of my bucket list. I want to see Thailand, Paris, Alaska, Australia, Madagascar... I'd want the past. I want to be surprised by the future and my life and I don't want to know any sadness ahead of time.
