Questions to Answer when You Need a Break
1. What would you rather be doing right now? Donating that box of stuff. I want it out of here! Rehoming usable stuff is my resolution for 2026 and I'm eager to get started. But the local resale shop only takes donations Tuesday through Thursday, and so the box waits.
2. What is always on your grocery list? Coke
3. Have you ever used a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose? I've never used one for any purpose. But now I'm curious – except for putting out fires, why would you use a fire extinguisher? (This reminds me: I should check the little one in the kitchen cabinet. Fire extinguishers expire, don't they?)
4. How many times did you text yesterday? I'm doing this Saturday night, so I'm referring to my Friday texts:
Those five texts went to three different people: my nephew, my friend Mindy, and the owner of the nail salon (confirming my Monday pedi appt.).
5. Would you prefer a slow-paced, relaxing vacation or one filled with new sights and experiences? Depends on where I'm going, what the weather is, and what experiences are being offered. Right now, I'm following friends on Facebook – one took his family to Peru for the New Year, another is in London. He climbed around Machu Picchu and toured Incan temples. She is enjoying museums, pubs, and waking up on high thread count sheets. I'm enjoying living vicariously through them both.
