I remember that story Steve about the dog ... and I am of the same mind as you,..accuse me unjustly about anything at all and then don't apologise .. then you no longer exist in any part of my world ! I love country and folk music....however when I'm listening to the radio at home it's the same as you...yesterdays favourites mainly and a few of todays hits dropped in for good measure..(BBC radio 2)...most of our radio stations are a mix of talk and music... Do you prefer tea, coffee, or a cold drink first thing in the morning?
Definitely coffee and I take my coffee BLACK please... Actually first thing I like a glass of orange juice but with my breakfast definitely my coffee.... Do you try to walk some to keep up the good body from getting out of shape???? I would love to walk but I am limited to about 15 minutes at a time and I walk the dog as long as the weather permits, winter or summer.....
Yes I love to walk....and always walked as much as possible...until recently. I still walk at work all day...and on my days off ( I have this week off)..it takes me a few days to try and recover from the pain so I stay home (I have recently been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis) in my ankles as well as my hands , knees and shoulders, plus a herniated lumber disc ...but I walk as much as possible. I've been off for 2 days now so Today because it's sunny and dry I will get ready and go into town, and then I'll walk 2 miles along the riverbank to the next town wearing my best friend skecher memory sole Go walk trainers ..but I stop the moment my ankles and knees hurt.. and return to the car. (sorry very long answer) It's my daughters' 41st birthday today.... I nearly forgot even though I'd already sent her a card last week...and just remembered in time to give her a call... Do you always remember your family birthdays?
Good question.. The children, yes but we have 14 grandchildren and unfortunately we don't go that route.. Do you still buy gifts for your friends and family for special occasions such as Christmas and Birthdays ?? We have given up on gifts and gone the route of cards only...
I buy gifts for my husband and daughter, but not for any other family members unless it's a particualrly special occasion... Would you ever pick up a hitch-hiker?
I did a few times when I was much younger and in every case, I found I was taken advantage of by them asking me to drive them directly to their destination.. If it is someone I know from our village, yes but other than that NO WAY !!! Do you get your mail delivered directly to your house or do you have to go somewhere to get it.. I have to go to the post office to get our mail at our post box.. We don't have home delivery in our village.. I only go about twice a week and I find that's enough..
I have my mail delivered through my front door every morning around 10.30am... and parcel come to the door also... My daughter gets no delivery where she lives in Spain ( I can't even send flowers, no-one will deliver them to her remote mountain home) so she has to drive to the nearest village Post office ...once, possibly twice a week... I'm just about to have breakfast...Oatibix and milk.... what did you have this morning for breakfast?
Usually I make my wife a 3 egg omelette with a slice of turkey (or chicken) bacon, while I make for myself 3 scrambled eggs with some cheese or mushrooms or just plain.. However, yesterday we both had a bowl of porridge (oatmeal) with brown sugar and heavy cream for her while I made mine with cottage cheese and sour cream.......... Do you have your main big meal at lunch or at supper ??? We have ours at suppertime as we don't eat lunch at all..
I don't get lunch at work.... I never have time.. so the only time I get lunch is when I go out for it...otherwise I have brunch at home on my days off , because I can't eat breakfast until about 2 hours after I get up ...so the simple answer to your question is my main meal is dinner Last night we had garlic baked potatoes in their skins with a smoked trout salad.... Do you eat more fish than meat?
Actually we eat more chicken than fish and we very seldom eat meat.. Thanks for the question as you just made up my mind as what to make for supper tonight...... FISH !!! We eat fish about 3 times a week.. If you still work, or when you did work, do you work a 5 day week or a 7 day week.. We had shops, and we worked 7 days a week and the shop was open 365 days a year.. We NEVER closed !!!
Until last month I worked a 5 sometimes 6 day a week 11 hour day, on my feet 95% of the time ...now due to some medical problems that have arisen and become much more pressing in the last year causing quite severe pain issues , I have had no option but to reduce my hours...so for the last 5 weeks I've been working around half of my normal hours.. Good question I'll leave it open for someone else
I do not work now but when I did work I worked five days a week. Are you a morning person or a night person?
Definitely a night owl.. We don't get out of bed till almost noon but we go to bed around 2 or 3 am... We did that when we were working for 7 years we had video rental shops that opened at noon and closed at 2:00am and we were opened 365 days a year.... Do you watch the playoffs of hockey?? I have been following the hockey season pretty well this year including the finals to date...
No, I'm not a hockey fan. I am a Nascar Sprint Cup fan though. If you could be anywhere you wanted to be right now, where would you be?
Actually, where would you like to be, Babs.. personally, I am very happy where I am now.. Sitting at the computer at 5:00am while my painful shoulder relaxes and then back to bed for a few more hours of sleep.. Do you change your vehicle often or only when it is badly used ?? I used to trade mine in every 2 years when I was working but since I am retired, I keep them till it doesn't pay to fix any more which is years and years.. I don't do the mileage to warrant changing often..
