1. What's a winter memory you treasure (can be from any winter
in your lifetime)?
It the time Tim and I went on a snow holiday; Tim
was inspired to take the holiday as our niece was working in snow lodge as waitress.
2. Tell us about the last time or a recent time you were caught
up in red tape. Does it send your frustration level off the charts or is it
something you've come to expect when dealing with any sort of bureaucracy?
I can’t think of any time I have caught in red tape
3. Do you eat/like fish? Do you cook fish at home? What's your favourite
fish dish? Ever been ice fishing?
No, I do not like any seafood, and ice fishing isn’t
a thing as far as I know in Australia.
4. Did you watch any of the US President's Inauguration coverage
on Monday, Jan 20? On a scale of 1-10 (with 1 being not at all and 10 being
very very) how interested are you in politics in general? Do you follow/keep up
with/ get involved with local politics?
Nope didn’t watch it, only saw highlights on the news.
My interest in politics is a 1, right at this moment I can even remember who the
mayor is.
5. What's the coziest thing you own and what makes it so?
I have thought about this answer for hours and
still drawing a blank, can’t think of a damn thing.
6. Insert your own random thought

While visiting blogs this morning I came across
this quote on Jessica’s blog, she can be found here: https://goalsandgoodvibes.blog/2025/01/22/weds-3/
“As you move through the day, may you know it’s
okay to create a little space, to let this day be what it needs to be and
however you can, create room to simply breathe.” By: Morgan
Harper Nichols
This made me think about mostly people have times when
they find being around other people difficult, this is what my youngest refers
to as “peopling”. There are many reasons why a person feels unable to socialise
and be around others, many people who have mental condition will find it
difficult to be around others. If you don’t experience this difficulty, please
be understanding to those who do experience it.
Do you get snow in Australia? We live in the southern part of the US so snow is pretty rare in our area. We get one or two a winter and that's plenty for me. We used to live in the northeast and had feet of snow which got old after a while. It was a lot of work to remove and keep our driveway passable and the gutters from freezing over. We love summers here! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteYes it snows in Australia not everywhere but in parts
DeleteI don’t enjoy too much “peopling” My alone time is very precious to me - it has to be a balance.
ReplyDeleteI so get that
DeleteHello from the USA, via Hodgepodge. I agree that we all need to be more sensitive and thoughtful of those who don't particularly like to socialize, or find it uncomfortable. Me, I can get along with just about anybody for a conversation, so this thought speaks to me as a reminder to let people be who they are and not try to make them keep up a conversation. Blessings to you.
ReplyDeleteYeah my mum could talk to anyone and Tim is the same and Tim at times doesn't understand why Jessica often doesn't like to socialise
Delete1- I have a vague memory of a snowstorm when I must have been around 3, and my sister made us a snow cave... 2- Recent, know, but I have a long story for a later time on that subject... 3- Love seafood, except catfish... 4- clips on X... 5- Hoodies...
ReplyDeleteI don't visit X and I don't own any hoodies, the only thing I have with a hood is my winter dressing gown
DeleteLiving in the U. S., we both love how our elections turned out and are looking forward to four years of freedom and prosperity. Blessings, Jo-Anne!
ReplyDeleteThat is good to hear, I hope the next four years go well for all Americans
