1. The first day of summer rolls in later this week. What are ten things you’d put on your list of quintessential summer activities? Will you try to manage all ten this summer?
- 1. Beach. 2. Street Fairs. 3. Farmer’s Markets. 4. County Fairs. 5. A few visits down to my daughter’s. 6. go swimming. 7. Cookouts. 8. Watch sunsets. 9. Eat some lobster and fried clams. 10. Relax.
- I would love to go to the beach. Hubby is not a beach fan, so maybe my daughter will invite me to go with her and the grands! It would be fun to go to the beach and play with Savannah and Quinn in the sand and sun!
2. Do you collect seashells when you’re at the beach? What do you do with them once you get them home? What’s your favorite place to comb for seashells?
I do collect seashells, and have several jars of them. I haven’t done much of anything with them except fill Apothicary jars. The best beaches I ever combed on was Surf drive Beach in Falmouth, Massachusetts and Sanibel in Florida.
3. At a snail’s pace, shell out money, come out of your shell, go back into your shell, drop a bombshell, happy as a clam, clam up…which ‘shell’ phrase could most recently be applied to some event or circumstance in your life? Explain.
I hope to be Happy As A Clam! I go to the Infectious Disease doctor today and I hope she will say I am ready to discontinue to antibiotics. Then I really would be “Happy As A Clam”!
4. What summer activity do you dislike? Why?
Mowing the lawn. But then, most of the time, Hubby does that.
5. What’s something you see as quickly becoming obsolete? Does that bother you?
Going to the Mall. Most of my shopping is done online now. And from what I hear on the business channels, this is the case Nationwide! I don’t think it bothers me too much because I really dislike crowds.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I wonder how many of you have started watching cable or satellite TV shows instead of the news. I have. I find the International news and the local news is getting increasingly distressing. No, I do not blame any one political figure. I blame the hatred that is being fed out there, terrorism and the real lack of moral values. It saddens me. I hope that one day, people will once again care about each other and that terrorism will be defeated.
