Hi Robyn!

If you were stranded on a deserted island for a week, what three things would you bring?

BUT WAIT-THERE'S MORE!

You already have food there, and you will be alone, so humans can not be brought (sorry DH). No magazines, radios or any communication lines may not be brought either.

Now what would you bring?

Hi Robyn,

(BTW, good question Danielle!!! :-)

So Robyn, if you had $10,000 for you to spend with the following rules:

1) you can't pay down debt

2) you can't buy anything useful (food, shelter, medicines or medical care)

3) you can't give it away (to charity or friends or family or strangers)

What would you do with the money?

Welcome!

Hmm, a week all alone on an island with food given to me? I think I'd bring a big blanket, sunscreen, and a LONG book. I'd also LOVE it! Hmm.... maybe I'd leave the sunscreen home so I could have a lighter for a nice fire at night. That's debateable because since I'm all alone there'd be no clothing to worry about getting dirty or anything so that sunscreen might get pretty important.

Hmmm...

I think I'd buy stuff for the house. big wonderful matching furniture sets, coordinated decorations... etc. I'd have to hire a california closets person to come organise me too. I hate mess but I can't stand to clean and I'm constantly surrounded by chaos. If someone could figure out how to make my life organized and make it easy for me I'd love it!

Aww, it's not personal, and even if it was, I have no issues with that. I'm a pretty open book.

Hmm, well, on days that outside is not good, I'm pretty big on snuggling together to watch a movie. We also like to cook together, though that gets messy. Another big thing is to head out to the stores together. Gavin LOVES shopping. (He's going to have a very happy wife someday. LOL!)

Also, when it's rainy outside that seems like a perfect time to me for a nice long walk. Much better than the hot days and Gavin likes to puddle jump.

Thanks!

Well, this is less than exciting. hehe.

We both went to the U of MN. I was in Alpha Sigma Kappa, a sorority for women in technical studies. (I started out a Chemical Engineer and then changed to Computer Science.) The Fraternity for guys in technical studies is called Triangle. Yes, we're all a bunch of total nerds. Anyway, the first day I met Kris was when our two groups had a valentine date set up thing. We all answered questions on a form and then the organisers paired everyone up. Kris and I were not paired with each other, but he was paired with a friend of mine and I was paired with a friend of his so the whole group of us went out. I was really drawn to him then. We were friends for a few years after that, all the while Kris was kinda hinting that he liked me but he'd never ask me out. Then one night at a party at their fraternity house I was sitting talking with him and I just asked "So, do you like me or what?" hehe. He admited to it and we started dating. 6 months later he was about to head out for basic training after joining the army. He wanted to be engaged before he left. I kept saying we should wait for him to get back. He ignored me and picked out a ring anyway. We had been out shopping and I had gotten the CD from the "Phantom of the Opera" which I LOVE LOVE LOVE. We were at my room at the sorority house listening to it and when the song "That's All I Ask Of You." (Or whatever it is called... I don't honestly remember) was on he gave me the ring and asked me to marry him. It was less than my big dreams of elaborate proposals, but it was sweet none the less. We were engaged for a LONG time and got married in 98. (I think he proposed in 96.) Gavin was born on 7/11/99, so today is his birthday. : )

Sounds like so much fun, Robyn!

If we werent prepairing for a storm here, getting out to play in the puddles would have been so much fun. I used to love that when I was little, dancing around with my sister..lol.

Anyways, just wanted to say "Happy Birthday, Gavin!" Hope you guys have a great day:)

GM Robyn hope you are enjoying being queen. My question is pretty simple. Is there anything that you dream to do one day, but know you could never do.

Example, I would love to go skydiving, but I know that when I got up there, I would freeze
