What type of day are you having?
I'm still in bed as I answer these, so it's a little too early to tell. I'm hoping it's a good one.
Was there anyone who "made your day?" So far I have to give that honor to Roy Hobbs (top) and Constance MacKenzie. I know their food dishes must be very empty and yet they are patiently letting me wake up at my own pace.
Are you liking how you look today? I have yet to look in the mirror, but I bet the answer to this one is "no." I had dental work on Thursday and when I went to bed last night, there was still some visible swelling and bruising.
Have you ever eaten a bug? Yes. I had a chocolate covered cricket at a birthday party when I was a little girl. I remember nothing of the taste, just recall feeling very brave.
Are you vegetarian? Nope. In fact, I had sausage on my pizza last night, the first pork I've had in quite in while. My gut has been very sensitive since a bad reaction to amoxicillin back in April.
When was your last paycheck?
Octoher 15.
How many pets do you have? I inadvertently answered this already: Connie and Roy Hobbs.
What kind of toothpaste do you use? Colgate Total.
Are you closer to being rich or poor?
Compared to who? When I read about Jackie Onassis' daily life in New York City -- lunches at the Carlyle, dinners at Le Grenouille, open accounts at her favorite florist and book store -- I know others are enjoying higher-end lives. When I see the woman in a wheelchair in front of my local Target, begging for change, I realize I'm very lucky.
What was the last gift someone gave you? Nancy and her husband Paul picked up the check at dinner. (It was not at Le Grenouille.)
Do you appreciate that person? Very much.
Did you talk to anyone you didn't like today? No.
Do you like picnics? If you mean sitting on the ground and eating off of a paper plate on my lap, then no. I have too hard a time getting up!
What book are you currently reading?

What song did you last listen to? I don't know if it was the last song I listened to, but I recall hearing "I Got You, Babe" yesterday while in the shower.
How many tabs are open on your computer? Five.
Are you a very stressed out person? Right now, at this moment, yes. I've got a lot of shit on my plate. My favorite niece is in the hospital, recovering from gallbladder surgery yesterday. I'm still not feeling so great myself. I believe my last paycheck will be March 15, 2023, and then I'll have to start drawing on my savings. Things don't look good for Anthony Rizzo and the Yankees tonight. Oh well, at least it's unseasonably sunny and warm today!
You do have a lot on your plate. I hope your niece recovers well, and that YOU recover from your dental work. Feel better.
ReplyDeletei too relate to your stress
ReplyDeleteLove the picture of your cats and their names!
ReplyDeleteOh--I'm sending your neice lots of healing vibes. I hope her recovery is as smooth as mine was. And I hope YOU have a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteI love Roy Hobbs' markings. He looks like he's wearing a Batman mask in the photo. Ha! It seems we all had similar thoughts about wealth.
ReplyDeleteThink I'd love to read that Jackie book. And here's a wish for both you and your niece for a speedy recovery from the surgery. The recovery from GB surgery is usually rapid, and you feel SO much better afterward. No more fainting spells.
