Sunday Stealing
1. Have you ever had a great conversation with a complete stranger?
A. Yes, although they generally tend to be more weird than great.
2. Where did you go on the very first vacation of your life?
A. I have no idea. Probably camping at Myrtle Beach, SC but I'm not sure about that.
3. Open the door of your refrigerator. What is the first thing you see?
A. Mayonnaise.
4. What is your favorite place in your home?

7. What is special about the town you live in?
A. Ah, good ol' Botetourt. Next year she celebrates being 250 years old. Did you know at one point this county stretched all the way to the Mississippi and into Wisconsin? Loads of history here. This is a place full of scenic vistas. I don't live in a town, it's a rural area. But the best thing about it is I live here.

14. When was the last time you needed First Aid?
A. You mean like a cut finger and a bandage? Or an emergency room? It's been a while for either.
15. Can you explain what a first down is in football?
A. It is where the offense has moved the ball 10 yards down the field from their starting position, wherever that was.

Hey--someone else who chose Eleanor Roosevelt!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your first couple of bog posts. So that was 2006--has the area developed, as you feared it would, yet, or do you still have pristine nature to look at>?
It doesn't seem like any of us love the heat. A/C seems to be our natural habitat during the summer. Eleanor Roosevelt is a good choice. She is in my top 2 or 3.
ReplyDelete#9--I didn't think of that!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite place is is actually my deck outside at night so I can stargaze and “ listen” to the quiet. But inside it seems to be the kitchen. Even with my mom gone, I seem to be in the kitchen more than any room of the house. Although my bedroom is trying to win me over. Guess I’m playing “catch -up” from sleep deprivation. I am however still waking up ever few hours until the sun comes up. Then I get to see what new adventure the day brings me!
ReplyDeleteAlways read your articles in the paper, told you that at the salon one day. I’ve been following your blog for about 5 years now. 3 years without responding ...just reading.(you know why) Your blog is informative,interesting, and friendly. I like when you add in your sense of humor to your writings.I enjoy it everyday!
