TGIF HOPS!

It's the end of another week!  That means it's time for the FRIDAY HOPS! If you are here for FIVE QUESTION FRIDAY or FRIDAY FRIEND CONNECT, then just scroll down!

HUGE thank yous and hugs to the gals who sponsor these Friday memes!

Have a FANTASTIC weekend!

First is Hilary's Follow Friday Four Fill-In at Feeling Beachie!  

Hillary says:  I would LOVE it if you could please help me spread the word about this hop!

This week’s statements:

1. I don’t remember what I was doing during major national/international events. And I don't know why. You know how everyone says, "Everybody remembers what they were doing and where they were when blahblahblah"...? Well, I don't.
2. I love a storm. But NOT a major storm like a hurricane or a tornado...nothing along those lines. Just this morning on my walk, the outer bands of Irene were so amazing to watch- I could see the circular pattern as they moved overhead. AND I'm heading out to the beach with my camera in a bit to see what I can see and capture! (Which will probably be a whole bunch of idiots surfers). 
3. When I lose socks in the dryer, I think---I don't lose socks in the dryer so this one is moot.
4. My favorite snack to eat while watching t.v. is NOTHING. Snacking while watching television is a trap that I no longer take part in! It was responsible for packing on a good many of these excess pounds I'm trying to get rid of! 


Next is Five Question Friday from Mama M. at My Little Life. 

This HOP is a great way to get to know each other better and to meet new friends!  If you click on the button, it'll take you right over there to join in the fun! 

Questions for Friday, August 26th:

1. Did you make any fun purchases this week? Nope. I was busy blowing raspberries in the general direction of hurricane Irene to keep her at bay.

2. If you could go to any musical concert, what would it be? Now this is one LONG list! Let's just say that I'd go to nearly anything as long as it's not country or heavy metal.

3. What is your least fav/ most fav house chore? Seriously, does anyone have a favorite HOUSE CHORE? I am not a fan of house chores- I just keep my head down and get them done.

4. Would you prefer new appliances or clothes? APPLIANCES! Not that we need them at the moment (knock wood) BUT I would love to have new ones and I even have them picked out should the need arise!

5. Miracle Whip or Mayo? Mayo. And it was ALWAYS Duke's until I started trying to lose all this weight and discovered Kraft Mayo with Olive Oil- it's tasty-lish! But NEVER Miracle Whip- that's just gross.

AND, new to me this week is FRIDAY FRIEND CONNECT with Jan over at Midlife Parenting
