These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Saturday 9 -- Letting the Sparks Fly
1. Where would you go if you wanted to spark your creativity? Water is very good for me. A quick shower, a leisurely soak in the tub, even a walk along the Lake. I get my best ideas when I'm near water.
2. What would be one thing that would embarrass you a great deal? I can't sing worth a damn, so the thought of soloing at a karaoke bar is just too awful.
3. What values did your parents instill in you? I got my patriotism from my dad, and my love of animals from my mom.
4. What’s a fad of your teen years that you remember well? Smiley faces. "Have a nice day."
5. What is your favorite breakfast? Eggs. I switch it up from time to time (scrambled, poached, over easy), but I love eggs.
6. What is the best birthday gift that you have received? When I turned 50, my best friend got me the book that was at the top of the best seller list at the time of my birth, the movie that won Best Picture that year, etc. I loved it.
7. What gadget could you not live without? My iPod!
8. Do you collect anything? Purses. I looooove them.
9. What website (non-blog) do you regularly visit? MSNBC. I'm a news junkie.

Kareoke was my answer too!
ReplyDeleteI never thought of my love of purses as a collection. I do have quite a few.
ReplyDeletethe one good thing is that a karoke bar often everyone sounds good because the alcohol helps that out lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a creative birthday gift! Have a great Saturday...
