This week's Monday Madness meme:
1. How many clocks (not watches) are in your home? How many of them are digital? How many do you really look at during the day?
A. Eleven. Three.
2. How many lamps (non-overhead lights) do you have in your home? What's your average wattage? Are any of them energy saver bulbs?
A. Twenty-four. 60-75 w. Yes, most are energy-saver and/or coiled-florescent bulbs.
3. How many house plants do you have in your home? How many need more attention than you give them?
A. Twelve. They all get the proper attention. Many I have had for ten years or more.
4. How many photos / pictures / drawings / child's art are on your walls? How many from each of the four categories?
A. Most of the artwork on the walls are prints and/or paintings. There are some antique signs. There are some antique, vintage, and semi-recent photographs in vignettes on tables and the piano. Mixed in with the paintings and prints are other forms are artwork and wall art (baskets, 3-D sculptures, wicker pieces, tribal masks, antique shelving, stained glass, etc.) All-in-all, most wall space is covered with massive arrangements. As a professional interior designer, it is the juxtaposition of filled spaces and voids that create the most unique presentations.
5. About how many electric gadgets are in your kitchen? How many are used on a daily basis? How many are used occasionally? How many have been used once and stashed? How many have never been used?
A. 7-10. 1-2 on a daily basis. 2-3 on an occasional basis. The rest have been used a few times. None have never been used. The bread-maker and juicer should be used more often.
