This has been really fun to read to learn more about people. Great idea, Channah!
I'll play, too.

2. Are you Married and if so for how long? Almost 10 years
3. What type of animals do you have? 5 dogs, 11 cats, a bunny, fish, an aquatic clawed frog...I'm probably forgetting something. Any strays that show up usually stay. :) Chickens will be added soon.

11. Name 3 of your favorite hobbies? Baking, sewing, and writing.
12. What is your least favorite job to do at home? Anything having to do with a dishwasher. Give me handwashing any day. (I am sooo weird!)
