Autumn Friday Five

 

 
1. What do you like or dislike about autumn?
I love the color of the leaves, the color of the sky, and the cooler weather
2. Have you raked leaves into a pile just to jump in them?
Raked leaves, many times, but I have never done so just to jump in them. I was always afraid of being impaled on a stick.
3. Have you ever carved a pumpkin and how did it turn out?
Yep so many I can’t count them.
4. Have you ever eaten anything made from pumpkins other than pie?
Pumpkin cake.
5. Where is a good spot to see the leaves change color where you live?
My backdoor. There is a gorgeous view over the Wabash River and the Markle Park.

Wednesday Thoughts

• Sunscreen and lots of water are the best things you can do for your skin.
• All roads do, in fact, lead to Rome. At least they do in Italy.
• There is very little better in this world than receiving a bouquet of flowers for no reason at all.
• It really is all small stuff.
• There comes a point when toenails are too long. It usually happens in a matter of hours.
• You probably don't need to cleanse your colon. It's pretty efficient on its own.
• Managing your expectations makes for few disappointments.
• It really is about calories in versus calories burned.
• Do you ever learn a new word and then see it used ten minutes later? I love it when that happens.
•  Is it possible for a person to be stupid and a narcissist?
• I love every season.
•  I have learned that the older I get, well, the older I get.

Ready for Halloween

5 for Friday

1. What would you do if a random stranger gave you a bouquet of roses?
I would probably ask them what they wanted, because I can't imagine a random stranger giving me anything without them wanting something in return.
2. What is the most commonly used color in your house?
Brown, it's my favorite.
3. What color is your favorite t-shirt?
I don’t really have one, but if forced I would say pink.
4. If you could go back in time, what time would you live in and where would you live?
I think it would be kind of awesome to live in the 1920s in a big city.
5. If you could have any ONE thing in the entire world (not including money) what would it be?
I would love to have my own personal draft room, bigger than the one I already have --- a whole room devoted to nothing but crafts, with built in bookcases, easy chair and a working fireplace
