My First Bloggasphere Interview

I was over at Ter's and she posted her interview from one of the bloggers so I decided I'd like to take a snap at it.

1. How is your name pronounced?

Hmmm...Kinda hard to explain it so I think you pronounce it like this.... An Jenny, or something like that. The A is supposed to be pronounced in its short sound.. a.


2. With 7 kids in your house, it must get pretty hectic. Describe what a day in your house might be like.

The mornings are a little noisy with everyone trying to get ready for school...we have only one bathroom so my teens are constantly fighting over the bathroom. Of course during their fighting over the bathroom time, they are taking turn consulting each other on the outfit to wear. Sometimes there's even fights over whose wearing whose clothes without permission. The Elementary kids are usually the ones whining about not wanting to go to school and if they could have few more minutes of sleep. But once they are off to school, the house is pretty quiet with just me and my two year old. I always relish that time. From about eight a.m. to three p.m., I usually use that time to do my chores, grocery shopping if I have to, visit friends, make or return phone calls and of course spending total one on one with my two year old.
Once the kids are home, the house gets very noisy. Everyone seems to want to talk to me about their day all at the same time and of course, my Elementary kids like to make such big deal about homework, it gets really frustrating. The only way to keep sane to stick with the schedule I keep for them....quick snack, homework, an hour of freetime for each kids, chores, dinner, and then preparation for bed..down time.

3. What is your favorite thing to do during ME TIME (if you actually have any!)

I love to read a really good novel, so whenever I have a ME TIME, that's what I spent doing. But I am also in a card swap group that we meet every month. My family knows about this and they make sure that nothing comes in the way of it. The kids know that if I am attending this card swap, whatever emergencies that come up, their dad is the person to go to so I am not disturbed...isn't that sweet of them?

4. Most people might pick Hawaii as a great vacation spot. Since you live there, where would you want to go on vacation?

I've always wanted to visit Ireland so if I have the money, that would be the number one on my list of where I would go for vacation.


5. What is your favorite thing about Hawaii?

I would have to say the weather....the all year round summer we get here in Hawaii.
