How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

That’s How SHE Blogs

in Uncategorized on 08/12/10

I picked up this fab Meme from the lovely Lisa/Party Mummy at Yummy Mummy Club.

I’m going to BlissdomCanada , I really want to make some strong connections before I go, so decided to play along!!

Here’s what to do:

a) Cut and paste the quiz onto your blog.

b) Delete my answers (after carefully studying and committing each to memory. What?).

c) Answer the questions (feel free to embellish and totally make stuff up. I do it all the time).

d) Tweet a few of the bloggers you’d love to get to know better and invite them to play along.

e) Leave a link to your blog with your quiz answers in the comment section below.

————————————————————————-

1. Did you attend Blogher10?

No . Sigh. Kicking myself!

2. Are you attending BlissdomCanada this fall?

Yes! Bought my ticket and booked my room. I don’t know if I remember how to sleep through the night uninterrupted.

3. When are you at your blogging best – a.m. or p.m.?

P.M. Late late at night when I should be sleeping.

4. How many blogs do you have? (Include the links)

Just one and I can barely keep up with that!

www.howtosurvivelifeinthesuburbs.com

5. What technical skill would you like to learn to improve your blog?

I would love to know how to make my own button. You know just so I could say I could. I have no computer skills.

6. Do you prefer the sound of silence or does action abound while you blog?

I’m better with the silence. Or at least I think I would be….it’s been alone time. I am way too easily distracted by oh …everything!

7. Do you include the names of your family in your blog?

Nope.

8. Do you post pictures or videos of your children?

Nope. Hmm although there are peeks of their hands, feet, legs!

9. What’s the grossest thing you’ve spilled on your keyboard?

Hmm. My dignity? More often though it’s carrot muffin and coffee with double cream.

10. Ever posted something you wrote while intoxicated?

Not that I remember.

11. Do you go back and edit old posts just because you can?

Usually I post it and let it go, but occasionally I will re-read something and find glaring or ridiculous spelling and grammatical errors. I must change those!

12. Have you ever suspected somebody took something you wrote and pawned it off as their own?

Umm no, not quite that popular:)

13. Does your spouse read your blog? What do they say about it?

My husband reads most of my posts, and he thinks I am all kinds of funny. Of course he has to think that, he sleeps with me.

14. What’s something cool/positive/unexpected for you, that has resulted directly from blogging?

I can honestly say that when I started to blog I had no idea I would start to make real connections with people from all over the world! That is a very cool gift.

15. Link to a post (or two) which demonstrate your writing style:

This Weeks Confessions From The Suburbs

A Savvy Girl Always Checks Twice

In Pursuit of A Gift Bag

16. Name a blog(s) that makes you exclaim, “Damn! I wish I’d written that!”

Geesh..just two? That is hard! I will start with these, check every blog I follow for other fabulous reads.

Things I Can’t Say

Let’s Have A Cocktail

Thanks for playing! See you at BlissdomCanada?

Hope some of you will play along!

Mwah!

      If you ever feel up to trying your hand at a button, you might want to read a little tutorial I wrote. I can always help you make one although it would probably be on the simpler side, like mine. Just let me know. I’d love to help!

And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom 

I promise - once you try #HomeExchange you will never look at travel the same way again! Follow the link in my bio for all the deets. ❤️

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.

If you want to travel more often and live like a local, you need to check out @homeexchangecom.
