Ten on Tuesday

Well, welcome to Tuesday, hopefully the day will go well for everyone.  Today, I'm answering the Ten on Tuesday questions from Roots and Rings.  She got todays questions from Abby and the Adventures of Abby and Ryan.

1. How do you take your coffee on an average day? How do you like your coffee if you’re splurging?
I like to drink coffee, but this year I've been trying to eliminate caffine from my diet.  I used to drink a Dr. Pepper (or two or three) everyday and now I'm down to one every few days.  That said, I'm trying to eliminate coffee drinking because I like my coffee with a lot of creamer (hazelnut or vanilla) and a ton of sugar.  So, I figure it's better for me to drink an Earl Gray tea with two sugars when I'm in the mood for a warm drink.

2. What is your genre of books to read?
Lately I've been reading Christian based novels that are set in early America. 

3. Where do you want to retire, if you could go anywhere?
Hmm, this is hard.  I LOVE Texas but I think states like Tennesee and the Carolinas are so beautiful!  I'd retire in Texas, have a house in Tennesee, Bahamas, Colorado and France (Apparently I'm going to be loaded when I retire) ;)

4. The 17-year-old you is told to write a 10-minute speech. What topic would you have picked?
At 17, I was a Senior in High School.  I'd probably talk about my faith or my hopes for my future.  (I had no idea what I was going to study in college)

5. What word describes you best?
I don't know how to answer this.  I should probably have a standard answer in mind for this question, you know, for moments like this; but I don't.  I don't know about THE word that describes me best, but one word that describes me is: Caring

6. What is the next “event” that you are looking forward to? (ex.: vacation, moving, date, job change, etc)
I am looking forward to August 6th, my birthday!  I am hopeful for all the things my next year has in store. And my honey and I are planning a vacation, don't know when or where but I'm already excited.

7. Do you like to discuss controversial topics or do you prefer to avoid those types of conversations?
I don't normally discuss controversial topics, I think I'd like too but I usually don't find too many people who bring up those things.  In general, I avoid confrontation so it'd be hard for me to join in a heated debate.

8. Would you rather add 4 free hours to each day, or add 1 extra day to the week?
I think I'd rather add 4 free hours to each day.  Free meaning not working!  I always have so much I want to do when I get home but before you know it, it's time to go to bed. :(

9. If you created a sports team; what would your colors and mascot be?
I would create a team called the Princess Ponies, our mascot would of course be a pony and our colors would be pink and purple.  Just Kidding! Kinda.

10. If you had to be a teacher, what subject would you teach?
I think being an Art teacher would be a lot of fun.  Or I'd teach English, that was an easy subject for me.

Well, maybe you learned something about me or maybe you didn't.  Either way, Happy Tuesday.
