1. Describe love using all five senses.
I love the softness of your touch, I love the glow I see in your eyes, I love to hear you call my name, I love to say your name again and again, as we share a glass of bubbly champagne.
2. February is Canned Food Month. What’s your favorite food that comes straight from a can?
Oh my. Not a big fan of canned foods. However, the thing I do buy in a can (that I do not make) is B&M Boston Baked Beans. Love them!
3. A principal in a UK school recently sent home a letter to parents requesting they (the parents!) dress appropriately when escorting their children to/from school (basically saying please don’t wear your pajamas) You can read the letter here. It’s gotten a lot of publicity, both positive and negative. Your thoughts? And do/did you ever make the school run (or hit Starbucks, Walmart, etc) in your pjs?
NEVER would I go out in my pj’s. I was called on for Jury Duty a few years back, and a woman showed up in her pajamas, and fuzzy slippers. Needless to say, she was not chosen to serve. I worse a suit and low heeled shoes. I felt it was an honor to serve my State.
4. Crew neck, V-neck, turtleneck, scoop neck…which is most prevalent in your wardrobe?
Oh dear, turtlenecks. And I am still having trouble wearing them since my surgery. Consequently, my neck feels cold a lot of the time.
5. I read here recently a list of four things to avoid so you wake up happier. They were late night snacks, hitting the snooze button, social media just before bed/upon waking, checking emails.
Are you guilty of any of these behaviors? Which on that list do you need to work harder at avoiding?
I gave up late night snacking. Bad habit. I do not use an alarm clock, so forget the snooze button. Social media before bed and first thing? Guilty. However, it’s interesting to note that I try very hard to limit the negativity I read on FB. Not always possible, but I try.
6. Share something you remember about a house you lived in as a child? Of all the homes you lived in as a child, which did you love best?
I loved my house on Clipper Lane, in Falmouth, Massachusetts the best. It was a short walk to the ocean, and was a great neighborhood.
My summers were always full of sun, sea and soft, cool, cotton sheets after a long day at the beach. I ran barefoot all summer long through the sweet grass, and the scent of lilacs and roses and the ocean were always there. (Or so it seemed) Sunshine and happiness, visiting with relatives who flocked to our house and the beach. Summers at Clipper Lane, are full of some of the best memories in my life!
7.Your favorite movie based on a true story?
The Kings Speech, The Blind Side, A Beautiful Mind, Apollo 13, Zero Dark Thirty, Argo, The Queen. These are just a few.
8. Insert your own random thought here.
The few times I have ever said anything political, on Facebook, I was flamed, called vile names, and told I was a hater. Now this is simply because I said I liked this or disliked that. In fact one person flipped out so badly, that they publicly called me out, and then also publicly humiliated me by a grand de-friending! So since then, I keep my feelings to my self. I simply do not need the grief. Locally, I am very active and being in New Hampshire, I try to see all the candidates speak.
But this also got me thinking. As I was reading Facebook the other day, I noted that many people that have claimed to be open minded, are the same ones who are cruel and say terrible, hateful things, about people who don’t agree with them. My question here is…do you allow people the right to their views? or do you attack them?
If we are to make our country great again, my belief is that we must all work together as Americans, and leave the hateful speeches behind us.
