No…I’m the oldest of six, and no twins…the only twins in the ‘family tree’ are my mother’s two younger sisters.

Do you have insomnia?
 
Yes, badly.

Do you have a history of at least four generations of your family?
 
Yes. Great grandpa was an indentured servant from Sweden.

Do you have memorabilia of “the old country” where your ancestors are from? For example, photos of land they owned, or remains of a building in which they lived, etc.
 
I do live just a few miles from the land that was once the farm my three times and four times great grandfathers lived.and was able to find a copy of the land platte showing their property location and lines. Unfortunately, it’s all been subdivided into some really nice homes. I also found the church he attended. It’s still there, but has been rebuilt twice since.

Do you have any books that were written by or mention an ancestor?
 
That’s really cool!

I have a book my uncle put together, it is a genealogy report, but not an actual published book.

Do you have weather outside that includes 50 degree weather?
 
Not right now, but late tonight the temperature is supposed to get down to the fifties.

Do you have a DVD of Captain America: The First Avenger?
 
No. We have a couple of hardwoods but no fruit trees.

Do you have a convertible style car?
 
No, I do not have a vehicle of any kind.

Do you have a signet ring?
 
No, but my wife and I have custom wedding rings I designed (strands of white and yellow gold braided, reaching around to hold up the diamond on the engagement ring, another pair with a bridge to hold it for her wedding ring, and a flattened version for mine)

Do you have a class ring?
 
No, my father is an Anglophile in a big way and took his second BA at Oxford. He decided that class rings were vulgar, essentially because they didn’t have them at Oxford, so I never dared to get one! He was horrified to learn that Oxford has subsequently instituted class rings. 🤣

Do you have a hydrangea?
 
Our rental property does but not my yard.

Do you have your lawn mower ready to mow the lawn yet?
 
No, I need to buy a new one (and not a Husqvana, he last one was shipped defective).

Do you have to sweep your porch and sidewalks, or does the wind are care of it?
 
No, I need to buy a new one (and not a Husqvana, he last one was shipped defective).
I’ve had a John Deere for quite a few years, and no problems other than routine maintenance…cut the lawn for the first time last Saturday…
Do you have to sweep your porch and sidewalks, or does the wind are care of it?
I have to sweep the patio every once in a while…we have ornamental grasses, and a strong wind will leave strands underneath the patio furniture and the charcoal grills.

Do you have a rotisserie?
 
We have an attachment for our grill, but have only used it once.

Do you have tickets to an event you can’t use because of the pandemic?
