Sunday Stealing

1. Name a hobby you've learned from a friend.

A. When I was in the 4th grade, my mother had taught me how to knit. But I did not keep it up and had forgotten how to do it. My friend T. brought me knitting needles and yarn and patiently showed me how to knit again, as well as crochet. I managed a couple of scarves but that's about it. I simply do not have the patience for it.

2. What are your physical activity preferences?

A. I like to walk.

3. List music you think is essential for everyone to hear.

A. Music that is essential for everyone to hear includes classical music (Bach, Beethoven, Mozart),  Queen, Pink Floyd, Heart, Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton, and Taylor Swift.

4. Name something you have to relearn every time you do it.

A. I cannot remember how to pay the Medicare bill online for my husband when it arrives, so I have to relearn it every 3 months.

5. When do you start thinking about holiday season planning?

A. I generally start thinking about it in August. I don't want it all crammed onto one credit card bill.

6. List some quirks & preferences you have about writing letters.

A. The only preference I have for writing letters is that I need to do it on the computer because my handwriting is so bad.

7. If you had to limit your reading to only 3 genres, what would you pick?

A. I would pick fantasy, nonfiction, and mysteries.

8. When joining teams, would you rather lead or follow?

A. I'd rather not be on a team at all. Can I simply sit in the stands?

9. What’s your dream concert, and who would be performing?

A. My dream concert would be a completely private performance, with no one in the audience but me and a few members of family and some friends, with a lineup of Pat Benatar, Heart, Melissa Etheridge, Sheryl Crow, Pink, Linda Ronstadt, and Stevie Nicks. (I think I just created a personal feminine festival.)

10. What is the funniest, weirdest, silliest, animal/pet you’ve ever met?

A. I honestly have no answer for this question.

11. How has love changed for you over the years?

A. I think I am more mellow in some respect, but less tolerant and more judgmental in others.

12. Name a book, movie, or song that brings you a sense of peace.

A. I have no idea why this piano song makes me feel peaceful, but it does. I used to fall asleep to it before my husband retired.

 

13. List names you like but which wouldn’t suit you.

A. Buzz, Velvet, Ginger, April, Nicole.

14. What’s a part of yourself you're still working to understand?

A. I am working to understand my very quick temper. Sometimes it scares me, I become angry so quickly these days. My fuse used to not be so short.

15. Name something you love about yourself today.

A. I love that I took the time out of my day to listen to a young woman's fears about the incoming administration.
