Good morning!

The weekend was great! We got my name changed at the bank (SS card came in!) and merged our accounts .... Blanca went to her yearly check up and all was well! I got my hair cut off YAY! - it was driving me crazy ... and then yesterday, we didn't do much at all. It was heavenly!

So I had a good response to my interview with Conrad last week. So I sent out an email to friends and family with a questionaire - and have received many of them back. THANKS! So I thought I would highlight a few of them here and there and post my comments.

First one up- my uncle (dad's brother) and THEN my uncle's lovely daughter- my cousin Christina. Shall we start?

QUESTIONAIRE

1. Please state your FULL name and your relation to me or how I know you
Christina Lee Wheeler (Abercrombie) cousin ... (Alrighty ... *I* would have preferred you dropped the Lee and made Abercrombie your middle name, but I don't have control over EVERYTHING ... you do have the blood.. so that's acceptable)

2. How and/or when did we meet?
You were born first, you tell me ( I really have no recollection. I DO recall being in kindergarten you coming over and I didn't have to go to school ... ROCK ON! Thanks for that, Cuz!)

Probably how tall you were since you could walk and I couldn't (Yes, you have always looked up to me, have you not?)

I do wish we saw more of each other (well ... YOU moved to Virginia)

No (I recommend margaritas, if you choose to get started)

Yes (um, what is it?!)

10. Where do you live?
Virginia (Still southern, so acceptable, although you are heading DANGEROUSLY North)

11. Name some of your hobbies, or all of them, whatever...
I like to walk in the park and I spend all my 'free time' during the summer at the island. (Islands are always good ... you did not specify which island, but as long as it's not Manhattan or something, we're good)

At time (I think so)

You will when you meet her! (Open invitation of course!)

Go Republicans! (Ah ... I KNEW we liked each other!)

18. Do you think the Queen of England was rude for not responding to the invitation to our wedding?
Certainly (Again, a great answer ... she is really starting to tick me off)

19. Are you surprised I was in my 30's when I finally got married?
No, I am glad you waited until you were truly happy and didn't settle/compromise (No, I certainly did not, although I came close a few times ... not to getting married, but I settled for lots of things I should not have ... when I think of all the people I should have told off ...)

Yes (There is no other answer here)

Nope (Again, I recommend coffee)

24. Do you trust me?
Yes (You should)

25. Do YOU know your heritage? If so, what is it ...
Not really, though I should. Dad tells me enough of it (Ok, this answer disturbs me ... Uncle Michael- head to VA STAT and give this girl some learnin'! The proper answer here CHRISTINA, is SOUTHERN and I would also accept Scottish ... and since your dad DID do our lineage research I would THINK you would have a base knowledge... *sigh* )

That concludes our questionaires for today!
