I thought I might try this, so here goes:
Do you prefer shopping, or going to the park?
The park. I do not like to shop even for groceries. I will eat whatever I can find in the house until even a mouse would be getting thin.
Music or silence while working?
Silence. Music makes me cry.
If you could have 3 wishes granted for you alone, what would they be?
1. Good Health
2. Wisdom
3. Wealth
Are you a collector of anything?
I used to be a collector of angels,clowns, chickens, lighthouses, carousel horses, pink satin glass, birds, books, books, books…well, you name it and I probably collected it, except pigs.
Now I wish I had never collected anything because what do I do with all this stuff that I no longer want? Anybody need a clown? an angel? but not a book!

Hi,
Great answers, I totally agree about the shops.
Thanks…shopping reminds me that perhaps folk are looking for something that they might could find within.
Very fun. Hey, we are kindred spirits once again. I do NOT like to shop and get annoyed when women friends always want to go shopping. I’d rather stay home and watch football or baseball (depending on the season, of course). Heh.
You know, Lori, as I stated to Mags, I think if a person is searching for something and they don’t know what, perhaps they go shopping. We are not “missing” anything or “wishing” for anything, content with what we have, therefore, staying home, watching a football game, reading a book….kindred spirits!
Great point, Linda. When I read travel blogs, I feel like I have no sense of adventure. Perhaps it’s just that I’m not really searching/wishing for anything else. Sometimes I do feel like something is missing because I don’t have a family, but I’m also grateful for what I have. As you’ll read when I put up my post tomorrow, I’m more into sharing the love, then accumulating things (or adventures).
I don’t believe in shopping for groceries, either. Or cooking, for that matter.
How I love that comment…I really don’t either! I thought I could make my kitchen into my office!
I tried that challenge last year, but didn’t keep it up. It became too overwhelming for me.
I love roaming big malls here in North America. I look at purses. The last one was so expensive so I have to avoid those stores now for a long time.
I also read travel blogs sometimes, and realize how many places there are I NOT want to go to. In fact there are very few places I WANT to go.
No clown for me. I’m afraid of clowns.
I do have a lot of ducks … mallards, porcelain, wooden…. They have accumulated over the years, but apart from that I can’t say I collect anything per se.
I don’t know if I can keep up the challenge or not. When I go to my daughters in Boston, it may become difficult.
I wish the duck would arrive.
I, too, love purses but have so many I started selling my for fifty cents at yard sales!
Oh, I hate shopping, too.
Interesting and sad that music makes you cry although I’m a big fan of silence.
A number of years ago, Trisha Yearwood sang a song called :The Song Remembers When.
The last chorus seems to sum up a lot of what moves us, particularly to tears:
“But that’s just a lot of water
Underneath a bridge I burned
And there’s no use in backtracking
Around corners I have turned
Still I guess some things we bury
Are just bound to rise again
For even if the whole world has forgotten
The song remembers when
Yeah, and even if the whole world has forgotten
The song remembers when”
Music transports and sometimes even good memories are poignant
Thank you for the song…I think it sums up the feelings! Good to see you. Happy New Year.
Linda, I was reading this while I stall on going up to the grocery store! But, since I have to walk–and the weather reports are not favorable–I s’pose I’d better put a smile on and go. I’d take a spare angel–but I suspect you’d best keep them around! By the by, Cee’s email this morning said to tell you she’s open to helping you with the tech issue we discussed previously–good news, eh?
You are so thoughtful, Caddo. I haven’t even found all my awards as yet but will give Cee a holler, so to speak, however, using your instructions. I had already gotten the one award I found onto the page, just as you said!
I think my 3 wishes would be the same as yours!
1. Good Health
2. Wisdom
3. Wealth
