What would you like to do more of?

Without a doubt......"READ"!

Why do you think it is some people don't get along with you?

I pretty much get along with everybody & vice-versa......I'm sure it's "thanks" to my dad.  He never met a stranger. And Mom was a nurse in a very popular doctor's office.....so she still has that way about her of being able to talk with and make friends very easy of people she just met. I find myself talking to people I don't know in the stores or where ever I might happen to be.......I see that both of my brothers do the same thing.  And.....I think I sort of instilled that quality in my son.......because I've seen him do the same thing....he finds it easy to talk with most anyone about anything.

If you could go back and change one thing you've done in your life, what would it be?

Submitted by Devinoid.

The only thing I can think of that I would have changed......is maybe going to college or a vo-tech school for a career in something.......would have probably been one of two things.......some type of office or maybe hair......I enjoyed "fixing people's hair" back then.  I remember having the thoughts towards radiology but don't think I could have handled anything to do with needles or IV's,  so I'm sure that would have let that out. (smile) This area of my life is probably the only regret I have........wouldn't have changed anything else except maybe seeking fertility help earlier on rather than waiting the nine years we did for nature to take it's course. (smile) I had pretty awful problems caused from the "endometriosis" over the years before I found out that's what it was.....could have been taken care of, I'm sure, before it got that far & maybe we could have possibly had more than the one child we did have (not that he isn't a blessing).  But.......we can't go back,  only learn and go forward.  I don't dwell on any of this....God has given me a pretty full life & I don't complain.

What's your morning beverage of choice?  Coffee, tea, juice?  Homemade or store-bought?

Absolutely 100% coffee!!!!    Homemade or store bought......doesn't matter to me. :-) And, must be black with nothing but coffee.......:-)  Course, I do enjoy the Hazelnut Creme flavored coffee from Mobil's On The Run.........but that is about it.   As far as Star Bucks or Gloria Jeans......I love just going in and smelling.........it's heavenly.   :-) :-)

If you were suddenly granted the day off today, how would you go spend your free time?

Probably reading a good book

What are you most grateful for in your life right now?
Submitted by Becca-Pink.

I am grateful that God still hear's & answers prayers.

I am grateful for so many other things,  but this tops the list

What's the best gift you received this year?

Having my family altogether with good food & great conversation. Only one brother missing, but he was at his home with his oldest boy......not on the road, (he's a long haul truck driver) so that was a blessing. 

Did you shop for great deals on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?  Or did you observe Buy Nothing Day?

I did spend some money yesterday on line buying my husband a couple of pairs of jeans & a couple of heavy Chamois shirts because the place I buy his clothes offered 25% off.......so, I took advantage of it. 

What is your favorite dish on the Thanksgiving table?
Submitted by Kadeeae.  

Hands down......cornbread dressing with gravy & cranberry sauce

Which person from your past, who you've lost touch with, do you wonder about the most? 
Submitted by ancora impara.

This is a good question......it made me think & remember some people from my past. 

I guess I wonder about some of the girls I worked with at Cessna Aircraft during mid to late 70's.  There was Frieda & Hazel......as well as Shirley & Louise (who I bowled with on Thursday nights).  I ask Grampa (he was my supervisor when I worked there) sometimes if he's heard from any of them & he will fill me in on anything he's heard,  but that's about it.  I worked with these people closely over a period of five years......you couldn't help but become like family.

There are also some people from my former church that I wonder about.....where they are......what they are doing now?  We were also a very close family knit group way back when........they've since scattered & we've lost touch? People like Dan & Connie........Sam & Linda........Steve & Terry........man.....we all did so much together....our children all played with each other, too.  That was back in the early 80's........
