I much prefer the radio because I am always working. I can listen and work at the same time and I keep up on everything going on in the world. I prefer bare floors, easier to clean and they look nice too. I prefer the mountains, bears and all. I prefer roast beef. I cannot stand pizza of any kind. I prefer a quick shower, never did enjoy a bath much. Ok girls, let's hear what you prefer and why.

TV or radio Radio - I don't get to watch TV just listen to it because my head is down, working! Carpet or bare floors Bare floors in a kitchen/bathroom carpet elsewhere Ocean or mountains for a get away The Sea! The sea! England is an island - we are only ever a few hours drive from the sea from wherever you are. Pizza or roast beef Tricky, whose cooking it? If it's MIL roast Beef every time Quick showers or a long lazy bath Long bath, suds, slushy novel, face pack, long cool drink - ahhhh heaven. love and kisses, Jan

TV or radio: mostly radio although I like the decorating shows Carpet or bare floors: bare floors, for the look. I find it warm and rich. Can always put area rug if I feel like it. Ocean or mountains for a get away: Ocean Pizza or roast beef: That's a hard one ... I love them equally, they're both decadent (these are my hips talking) Quick showers or a long lazy bath: Showers. I can't even remember when was the last time I took a bubble bath. |

Radio or TV, definitely radio, don't have time to sit and watch TV and with my DH & DS I never get to control the remote anyway. I love bare floors. I love look of wood its so cosy. Must have carpet in the bedroom though don't like that cold floor on the tootsies in the AM. Mountains win hands down. I love the cool crisp air, the trees and wildlife. Our annual vacation to California's Sierra Range is wonderful therapy. Pizza or roast beef. Have to say I like both equally choosing would have to depend on my mood at the moment. Sometimes that a canadian bacon and pineapple pizza hits the spot but roast beef reminds me of Sunday dinners growing up and can be a comfort food. Showers or baths. I prefer long soaks with bubble bath, a good book and a fragrant candle. Best stress reducer next to quilting! |

I'm a child of the 50's, so t.v. it is...unless I'm in the car and then it's the radio.... I L O V E walking barefoot on wood floors...carpet gets so messy. I've lived near the pacific and the atlantic...I prefer the mountains, much prettier, greener, cooler.... Beef it is.. I loved taking baths until I was 16, my then boyfriend spolied it by asking me how I could sit in dirty water and call myself clean. Besides it easier to wash my hair in the shower, than in the sink!

I like TV 'cause I'm a Gemini ( two heads= two lines of concentration) . I can read and watch TV and keep track of both at once. I love my hardwood floors.. I am a Beach Bum and have been all my life.. I do not have a favorite between pizza and roast beef.. I much prefer other foods.. I love long lazy baths, but I take showers (hot water better for my aching bones)

TV or Radio- Radio. I can't sit still long enough for tv. The cats have to have the radio on when we leave them to go to work, shop etc. too. Bare floors. Fleas like carpet too much to have carpeting. I live on the East Coast smelling distance from the ocean, love the smell of salt spray but hate the beach and the waves. Give me the green mountains with the fresh crisp smell. I love both pizza and beef. Long hot showers if arthur is acting up, quick ones if not. Brockie

I prefer radio because I'm always doing something and tend to miss what's on TV (oh, smooth jazz sounds good or maybe talk radio) Bare floors, easier to clean. Ocean, of course! We live by the coast for that reason, even for a quick get-away, we drive up the coast. I also love pizza and roast beef, but I'll have to say roast beef, because when I make it we all sit at the table and have great conversation and then have dessert! Showers, because it's easier and cleaner to wash my hair. |

Hi! T.V> / Radio: I like T.V.-when I can watch it-and when I can, I watch the sewing & crafting shows. Carpet/Bare Floors-I like wood floors,although I have carpet in most of the house-the bare floors would be hard on the kids-they are young-oldest is 11-this Friday & youngest is 2.Ocean/ Mountain- LOVE the ocean-I go to the beach whenever I can-kids & all! They love it too! Pizza/ Roast Beef- PIZZA! Not that I don't like roast beef-but I like a great pizza. Quick Showers/Long Lazy Bath- I would have to say showers-it's hard to take any kind of a bath with 6 kids around & plus I don't fit length wise in the tube- I'm 5'10". Mary Lou

Which do you prefer..... TV or radio, I love my music and love to dance so it's Radio. Carpet or bare floors, Bare floor's with area rugs. I have ceramic tile through out and when I mop I know it's clean. Ocean or mountains for a get away , The ocean for a summer get away and the mountain's for a winter get away. Depends on the time of the year. I love to swim but not in cold water. Pizza or roast beef, Roast Beef, Prime Rib medium rare. Quick showers or a long lazy bath Long lazy bath but who has the time, most of the time it's just a fast shower just short of a cat bath. |

Which do you prefer..... TV or radio Both, as I mostly just listen to it. Carpet or bare floors plush fluffy carpet any time. Ocean or mountains for a get away lived near the ocean and on it most of my life, would love to live in the mountains next, fresh and cool. Pizza or roast beef neither, seafood or soup are my favourites. Quick showers or a long lazy bath always a shower in the morning and a relaxing bath at night (note- not to clean thyself, but to relax) with a good book or music and a glass (or two) of nice wine. We used to have a great hot spa bath where my DH and I spent an hour or so every night. Now we have a hip bath, as I call it. No, I did not grow out of it, we've changed house! My biggest regret (the bath, I mean)! I also love sauna, you chaps, up there in the Great white North must have a few of those!

TV or radio: TV. No reception for radio anyways in the house, so listen to the radio only in the car. Carpet or bare floors: Definitely bare floors, and I can't wait to get rid of that carpet! Ocean or mountains for a get away: Love the beach. Pizza or roast beef: neither one - chicken. Quick showers or a long lazy bath: neither one - long showers. Adva Price

TV or radio: Radio. My first media job was in radio and I still love it. Carpet or bare floors: Wood upstairs and carpet down. A perfect combo. Like the wood best though. Less to clean and never needs replacing (just spent a month's pay on that downstair's carpet!) Ocean or mountains for a get away: Texas has more than 400 miles of beautiful coastline and no mountains. I'll take the beach. Pizza or roast beef: A big pepperoni pizza, eaten with hubby while watching a movie. Ah, our old newlywed idea of a fun Saturday night that still works 17 years late. Quick showers or a long lazy bath: Showers. When I take a bath, everyone knows I'm stressed to my max and they'd better leave me alone. Shelly Moon

Which do you prefer..... TV or radio Depends what's on - most often the radio in my sewing room. Most times like the peace and quiet of nothing at all. Carpet or bare floors Bare floors, but most of my house is carpeted Ocean or mountains for a get away Ocean but only because I have always lived so far away from them. Do love the mountains but some of those mountain roads are not the best. Love the prairies. Grew up out there. Pizza or roast beef Do I have to make a choice? Oh, OK, then roast beef Quick showers or a long lazy bath When I was younger, the long relaxing soak, now a quick shower, soapsuds flying every which way, the massage head on the shower, and a good brisk scrub with a towel. Heaven!! Kay

I prefer..... TV or radio - TV. I have several in the house an I need one close by all day. Carpet or bare floors - Carpet. Ocean or mountains for a get away - Both.

Quick showers or a long lazy bath - Quick showers, life's too short! LeeAnne
