Say What?

Happy Friday Everyone!! I am so thankful it is the weekend...I can't wait for five o'clock. Last night was my Relay for Life Survivor dinner. It was amazing. Everyone did such a great job and I am thankful for all the help. Next on the agenda is the actual Relay for Life event next Friday. As much as I love volunteering and taking on responsibility in the form of the Survivor chairwoman...I am ready for it to be over. Is that bad? It's just that I am exhausted. My house is a complete disaster. Clothes everywhere, dishes in the sink, dog toys all in the livingroom, I think at one point my house was T.P'd by my two sweet angel dogs : )....to think all this mess is from one person(me) and two dogs. I need a maid. I haven't ran/workout at all this week. Ya, I am a slacker. Luckily for me this weekend is supposed to be BEAUTIFUL. I plan on taking full advantage and going for a run or two. I may clean my house also.

Earlier this weeke Miss Football posted this fun little post on her blog that she stole from another blog, so I thought I would do the same. Please fill free to take it from me to use, because it's fun to know how everyone says things differently. Here is my Oklahoma version for y'all.


What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house? T.P.'ing.
What is the bug that when you touch it, it curls into a ball? Rollie Pollie 
 What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
Coke, this is how a conversation would go
"What do you want to drink?"
"Do you have coke?"
"Yes, we have Dr. Pepper, Pepsi, Sprit, Root beer, etc."
"I'll take a Sprit."
See...no matter what it is, here in OK (or at least to me) everything is coke
What do you call gym shoes? Tennis shoes.
What do you say to address a group of people? Y'all. It's a southern thing. Even, when I am speaking to a large group of people, like last night at the Survivor Dinner...I said y'all about five hundred times. I can't help it. It's just natural.
What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs? Daddy Long Legs.
What do you call your grandparents? Nana and Papa
What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket? Buggy
What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining? I don't believe I call it anything...but I am pretty sure this is when a rainbow happens.
 What is the thing you change the TV channel with? Remote
What is the large piece of furnature in a livingroom that multiple people at a time can sit on? Couch
If someone calls and asks what you are doing, and you are preparing to do something, what do you say to them? As redneck as it sounds...I will admit that I say "Fixin to" I know I need to stop this.
If you want to know what one person said to another person on the phone, what do you ask? Who was that, what did they want, where do they live, what's their favorite color, what do they do for a living...I don't just ask one thing, I ask a million things. I am nossy. It's not an Oklahoma thing...it's a Lyndse thing.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Friday!
