This is a slightly altered poem by Carol Thomas, called I’m So Glad We’re Family
Family
is a feeling of forever, without having to say the words.
It’s a
feeling of love without needing to explain why.
It lives
in the deepest places of the heart where memories are kept, where laughter is
free and unspoken and never broken.
Nothing
could make me feel better than having you as a sibling. I know you will always
be there for me when needed, loving and supporting me.

Here are this week’s questions.
What do you like most about your family?
How close knit we are and that we are supportive
of each other
What's something nice that's happened to you recently?
I can’t think of anything
Do you like the colour orange? Besides a pumpkin and an actual orange,
what's something orange you love?
Yes, I like the colour orange, and I like mandarins
What's something you have now you couldn't have imagined having
five years ago? How does that make you feel? What's possible now because of
it?
Parkinson's disease, I hate it, very little
Let's wrap this one up with an October this or that...

This weeks random thought is a quote from Tasha Conhran.
“Spend time thinking about what matters to you and
what you find to be meaningful. Invest in those things. It’s wonderful when you
can live your life in accordance with your own values rather than what other
people tell you what you should want. Leave everything else behind because it
really doesn’t matter if it doesn’t bring you joy.”
-Tasha Cochran

This week we are thinking about reading.
How do you relax in the evening
after dinner?
The same way I relax during
the day, I put my feet up and watch TV.
Do you read in bed? What kind of
books do you read?
Nope never have read in bed,
I like historical fiction, stories about real people and events.
Do you have a list of books you
look forward to reading?
Nope
What is the best book you've
ever read and why?
I can’t think of anything I would
call the best book I have ever read, there have been many good books over the
years.
How about the worst book you
feel you wasted time reading?
If I read a terrible book, I
do not remember what it was mostly likely because it was terrible.

Here are this week’s questions.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.' How does this saying
ring true in your own family, either the one you grew up in or the one you
made?
Well I think the fact that all my siblings as well
as myself are a lot like our parents says that the apple really did stay close
to the tree. I have been told by my siblings that I’m so much like mum many
times over the years.
Something you're nuts about these days. I
cannot think of anything that I’m nuts about at the moment.
How about something that's driving you nuts?
Tim drives me nuts often, it’s a good thing I love
him so much.
What does abundance mean to you?
Well since abundance means to have plenty of my answer
would be frustration, I have a lot of that.
Caramel apple-caramel cake-caramel corn-caramel sundae-caramel
macchiatto...what's your caramel treat of choice?
Easy a caramel slice or a caramel tart
What's a childhood memory that always comes to mind as the
leaves start to fall?
Can’t think of anything

This week’s
random thought is the quote by Sangeeta Rana
“Your beauty
is not because of your external appearance. It’s mostly because of the way you
think, the way you see, and the kind of feelings you have in your heart. Beauty
has very little to do with how you look. It has everything to do with how you
are, and how you make others feel.”
Here are some questions I found over here.
