1. In what ways do you indulge yourself?
I used to be a big shopper. Now my only big indulgence is getting my hair done every 6-8 weeks and driving down to see Mandy and Savannah. Gasoline sure is pricey, but I wouldn’t miss this time for anything.
2. Have you ever taken a cooking class? Any interest? What type of class would you most like to try?
No, I have never taken a cooking class. At least not a proper one. I watch Cooking TV and then try to replicate what I have seen. Yes, I would love to take a class. I’d love to take a class on French Cooking given by Julia Child!
3. What does it mean to be a good citizen?
Contributing Time, Talent, and doing due diligence for your country/state/county. I served on Jury Duty over a six week period, I vote each election and I have held public office.
4. ‘Tis the season of the political advert…do these ads influence your vote?
I live in the “Meet and Greet State of New Hampshire! We are fortunate that when someone is running for office, especially for President, we see them first! So no, the ads do absolutely nothing for me. Well, let me answer that again. The negative ads often make me refuse to vote for that candidate. If you want to tell the country about “your ideas” for the future that is fine. Just do not tell me, all the dirt on the other candidate. That is dirty politics!
5. What’s something you see today that makes you wish you were a kid again?
We live near one of the biggest Arcades in the northeast. Oh, how I wish I was a kid again and could play all those games! I walked through the other day, smiling with anticipation! In a year or so Savannah will be old enough to bring and enjoy the Arcade with!
6. What’s your least favorite cliche?
My dogs are barking (meaning: “my feet hurt”) I’m sure that there are others, but this blog is G rated!
7. What percentage of your Christmas shopping has been completed? How does that make you feel?
Only about 15%. I need to get going!!!
8. Insert your own random thought here.
I get to go see Mandy and Savannah on Friday! I’m trying to get down every two weeks. We visit, talk, and I get all sorts of baby loving time with Miss Savannah!!!
OMG, I don’t have any Christmas presents jet.
And the bad things is this year I really dont have a good idea what to buy for everybody.
Road trips are somewhat of a luxury these days. How lucky you are though, to be close enough to see your baby and her baby so often : )
Ha, Ha, Ha! Christmas shopping will begin sometime before Christmas arrives. Not sure when or if I’ll have much time for it this year. Love YOU, Mel
Your gas prices are low compared to what we pay. And I’m sure no price if too high, if you want to see your grandchild, right? 🙂
