2023 SYW: Week of 6 September

Share Your World

Here are this week’s questions:

  1. How do you get on with your in-laws/partner’s family? Unfortunately, they are no longer around, and neither is my spouse. when were we first married, we got along well with one another but after we moved to a different state we drifted apart.
  2. What is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you? I am not sure what the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. While I was working, I was always told I was dependable. Since I’ve been retired no one says much at all except for What’s for supper? Even so, I think the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me was “I love you!”
  3. What was your favourite ride/stall at a fun fair? It has been an extremely long time since I attended a fun fair. In fact, I do not think I have visited one since I was in my late teens. In the 1960’s my dad entered his model cars for display. He had some first-place ribbons for his model car displays. I do not ever remember going on any of the rides, only going through the exhibition halls looking over all the many various exhibits.
  4. Would you like to be a child growing up in today’s world? No, I would not like to be a child growing up in today’s world. Growing up without technology, being free to roam the neighborhoods without fear of violence was a wonderful time period in my life. It was a life of enjoying the outdoors and not glued to a phone, a computer, or anything. Loved riding my bike of handmade skateboard outside (No helmet necessary back then).

I am an avid reader. I read mostly Amish fiction but also read other novels. I enjoy romance, mystery, and Christian devotionals. I enjoy hiking in the outdoors, especially in Greenways and State or National Parks. I love my grandson. He is my favorite subject, so I'll post about him and his antics.

  1. Thanks for joining in and what a lovely meme Deb. I loved your answer to #4. I was born in 1956 and things were so different then. We could walk to the youth club or ride our bikes, and were encouraged to play outside. We have Sunday picnics and collected berries for Dad’s wine. Mum and Dad didn’t get a television until the early 60s and we made our own entertainment with music, reading or painting. Happy days.

    1. Thank you. That’s very true. It was a great time to be a kid. I’m glad my grandson loves the outdoors and prefers it to being indoors. Hopefully he’ll stay that way, but I afraid when he starts school he’ll succumb to technology. ( By the I was born in 1956 as well.)
