? ? ? ? ? ? You have 11 minutes free time, how do you spend it best with regards entertainment? Wordle, Word Huddle and Quordle, in that order. |
| Are you a fan of feet either yours or others or are you averse feet? Why and why? I love taking photos of feet!!! I need to do a blog soon on my accumulation. I guess it is because in Mexico it is so important to look down when you walk due to cobblestones, uneven stair heights and other earthbound dangers. |
| When you are wrong and you know you are wrong do you admit to being wrong or try and find a right for your wrong? I think I admit it. Sometimes grudgingly, though. |
| Are you more of a night owl or a morning lark? Night Owl, but recently a Morning Lark as well. Not getting much sleep. |
| Do you listen to audiobooks and if so what is the appeal? How many do you get through every month? I have constantly had an audiobook to listen to for the past ten years or more. By evening my eyes give out and I’m not capable of reading print, plus I like to listen to books when I’m swimming, doing art, driving or swinging in the hammock. I love doing two things at once. It feels like I’m being granted twice as much life. I listen to a minimum of 2 books a month. Usually more. |
| Do you bore quickly and if so why and how do you combat it and if not, how do you avoid that boredom? I do if the topic is mundane, the speaker quoting the obvious or when talking to someone unwilling to surrender the conversation to any other speaker. I just tune out and start writing a poem in my head. |
| What is one thing that you wish your readers knew about you and your blog? It is an addiction. I think a good one but another part of me thinks it is keeping me from finishing other projects begun long ago that I really would like to bring to fruition. |
| What items do you have on the top shelf of your fridge right now, today? Oat milk with linseeds, salsa verde, prunes, yogurt, Electrolit, Mashed potatoes at least 2 weeks old, cottage cheese, two kinds of salad dressing, peanut butter, a box of baking soda and a bowl with what looks like 3 tablespoons of two-week-old beef stew. Don’t ask me why. Perhaps I thought I’d have it for a midnight snack? Unlikely now. |
| Are you able to stand on one leg for 25 seconds? Not without touching something solid. |
| What are your favourite book titles from the following six categories? [One item only per genre please – use alternative genre if first choice is not your style] Comedy or Children’s literature Sock Talk (self-aggrandizing. I wrote it.) Horror or Historical Fiction Wuthering Heights Mystery or Memoir Michele Obama’s autobiography, Becoming Thriller or Adventure Peter Pan Romance or Poetry Jane Eyre Fantasy or Sci-Fi Batman |
| What twelve items would you take to a deserted island if you were going to be stranded there for twelve months and why those items – how are they functional to your survival? Sunscreen, deck of cards, thick journal or tablet, felt pen, glue, umbrella, sun hat, long-sleeved blouse, long pants, comfortable shoes, phone or ipad loaded with lots of books, spare batteries. I am completely allergic to the sun, thus the umbrella, sun hat, sunscreen and coverup clothing. The deck of cards and audible books are for entertainment, the journal and pens for writing. I guess with an i pad I wouldn’t need the journal, pen and pencil so I could have three more items. The glue is to make collages out of found objects. If there was nothing to eat on the island, I guess it would be a large container of cans of tinned food and a can opener.

| Does the society of today need social media platforms? Are they dying – as is suggested – off or are people simply after something else that is socially oriented but more personable? From being around three kids of the new millenium for a couple of weeks lately, I would say they are not dying. I really do fear the capacity of twenty-somethings and younger to engage in their present reality…It was almost impossible for them to stay off their phones. |
