Danger Haley is the funniest daughter on the planet (click here to see)

At least today. Of course, like she said, her joy in her newly organized space is something probably only I can truly appreciate, so maybe that's why I laughed so hard I cried when I read her post.

Now, on other days, Tiny Ninja is the funniest daughter on the planet. But, honestly, less often. And I know she would agree. Or she doesn't agree and I'm going to HEAR ABOUT IT when she lands at the farm again.

Because I'm a lazy blogger today, I'm stealing an idea from another of Danger Haley's posts: MY TOP FIVE :-)

5 things under $5 I couldn't live without:
- pack of smokes (I know, it's awful, but I'm all about being real today)
- 20 liter Coke (oops! I think that's 20 ounce...)
- crochet hook
- skein of yarn or thread
- toilet paper (not original, but real)

5 favorite movies:
- Lonesome Dove (all the versions, which actually includes a lot more than one movie)
- Cars
- Serenity (and the series, Firefly) . . . Thanks, Willie!
- The Incredibles
- just about anything with Kevin Costner (Postman) or Mel Gibson (Braveheart)

5 baby names I love:
- Shannon and Haley (have to place on one line to not show favoritism, although I had the name Shannon picked out 13 years before she was born)
- Gabriel (never got to use that one)
- Sorry, can't think of any others (I think you get out of the habit after you're done having kids)

5 songs I could listen to over and over again:
- Take Five (Dave Brubeck)
- Lonesome Dove Soundtrack
- Get Right With the Man (Van Zant)
- Chrome Fish (Go Fish)
- That's the Reason God Made Oklahoma (thanks, Near Perfect Husband!)

5 people who have influenced me in a positive way (in no particular order):
- Jesus
- Near Perfect Husband
- Shannon & Haley (again, no favoritism!)
- Dr. Hahn

5 things that are always in my purse:
- smokes (again, my apologies)
- debit card
- cell phone
- glue
- pen

5 moments that have changed my life forever:
- being baptized
- saying "I do"
- reading "My Utmost for His Highest"
- having two beautiful baby girls
- having a serious car wreck

5 obsessions that I have at the moment:
- crocheting
- planning for the near future (five year plan)
- two is plenty!

5 places I'd like to go:
- Ireland
- Scotland
- Wales
- British Columbia (I think that's what it's called - the part of Canada that's next to Alaska?)
- Mexico (or Ireland again)

5 appliances or tools I cannot live without:
- that Pampered Chef think that breaks up and stirs ground beef while browning
- the Pampered Chef round stone for awesome biscuits and pizza
- computer
- the Pampered Chef kitchen shears (which have been used everywhere but the kitchen so far)
- the Pampered Chef covered deep dish baker
THIS IS NOT AN ADVERTISEMENT FOR DANGER HALEY'S P-CHEF BUSINESS - I really do love the products I listed above and am not much of a tool person otherwise. Wait, I should have included pliers and work gloves and a pocket knife, so I'll replace the stone and the baker with the pliers and pocket knife. I'll let you know when I decide between the work gloves and another of the P-Chef products...

Have a God-blessed weekend!
