Q&A !!!!

My battery is still looking like this


Here you can read why.  Tomorrow going for 9 miles.   I hope I have enough energy left for that in the morning!!!


With Caro

OK so XLMIC tagged yours truly for the newest hip thing around blogland: the Q&A
 Chris K stole the idea from the lovely Colleen, yes yes I know Chris, with her blessing and he had the brilliant idea to turn this thing into a "blogger award".   And then he had the nerves to put ME on probation over at his manly blog. 
Whatever.

So how does this work? Very easy: ask me ANYTHING  you want.  I will answer.
I accept questions in English and in French.
There is no limit to how many questions one can ask. 
It can be about anything; moving to the states, my life pre-wedding and pre-kids, health, motherhood,  loosing weight,  Duke, am I an American citizen, running, likes, dislikes...OK you get it.

I have to pass this to other friends

Kate because she is SUPER
The so not boring Adam
Michael because well Jim got it and she should do it also!!!
My fellow Quebecer Anne

Oh and then you Missy, you did not think you could escape this one did you? Come on....my Arizona friend....your turn!!!

All right ready, set, GO!!!!

I feel for you w/ your low charged battery. Sometimes a long run (albeit slower) is exactly what recharges me. I wish that for you!

Nelly said...

Sorry my question above should have said:
What is your all time running goal?

Chris K said...

I hope you don't yell at me like XLMIC did when I originally asked my questions.

1) Why Duke? Did you go there?
2) What does Bill think of you Blogging?
3) Will you Coach Bball again this year?
4) Why is the WNBA still in existence?
5) Can you vote? If so, do you generally vote Democrat or Republican, or, are you more non-partisan?

Are your sons nicknames "Coach" and "K"? Do they speak "Quebecois" or "Socal dudeze?"

Anne said...

Quelles bonnes questions tu as eu à date. Premièrement, merci pour le "tag" :)

Alors, voici mes questions.

Est-ce que tes enfants parlent français?

Est-ce que ton mari parle français? Sinon, est-ce que c'est compliqué quand vous êtes au Québec?

En fait, je me demaindais justement si tu as ta citoyenneté États-Unienne? :)

Merci!

Kate Geisen said...

Ooh, these are great questions. Looking forward to reading the answers.

What about your husband's job requires such insanely long hours?

Is your husband a big supporter of your running or does he just tolerate it?

Something that surprised you about being a parent?

Ok, mine will be simple -
