Monday Madness 8-21-05

1. When putting groceries away, do you rotate your food so your newest items (cans and such) are in the back, and older food in the front?
No, I don't! I guess I really don't have that many cans in stock, at one time, anyway.

2. Do you own a digital camera? If so, how long have you had one? If not, do you plan to purchase one soon?We actually have 2! DH kept taking it to work, so we whined and he bought another one! We have a Canon Powershot G5 and a Canon A75. We have had them at least for a couple of years. It's hard to actually remember.

3. How do you store your precious photos?
We try to keep burning disks and have prints made of some of them. My daughter is better at putting pics in an album, than I am. I still have lots of pictures in boxes.

4. It's 6:00 a.m. and you've just lost power due to a severe thunderstorm; they say it will probably take at least 12 hours before power will be restored; what do you do?
Try to stay out of my fridge as much as possible. For stuff to DO, I would probably read a book, work on some knitting, or clean out a closet. Of course, that would mean that you actually had enough light to do all that!

5. How many times a year do you (or does someone dear to you) wax your automobile?
Once or twice a year.

6. Gas prices; what can we say except they've reached an all-time high. How are you dealing with this?
DH bought a VW Passat TDI car last December, so we try to use that for long trips, since it gets about 40 miles to the gallon, with diesel fuel. I guess to some extent, we limit our trips, but errands have to be run, so I can't see that stopping.

7. Have you ever purchased a book or cd twice, forgetting that you already had it?
I got a Chicago CD from someone for Christmas, until I got home and found out I already had that one! LOL! DH and I went out and bought a different album, that actually had more songs!

Good Monday morning to you, Dawn! Like you, I don't usually have enough food in my cupboard to worry about rotating, but I try to eat the oldest food first. Have a great week and thanks for playing Monday Madness!
