2023 SYW: Week of July 24

Here are this week’s questions:

1. What makes you smile at the drop of a hat? My grandson is what brings a smile to my face at the drop of a hat. He can be aggravating at times when he doesn’t listen and follow through with what he has been told. At other times he will come up to be and ask for a hug. I could I resist. I can’t. I have to smile and give him his desired hug and tell him I love him.


2. What makes you angry?
People that hurt other people and do not even realize their doing it. I’m not taking about hurting someone with physical violence, but instead by using insulting words, undue badgering, and a controlling nature.


3. What saddens you?
Losing loved ones is what saddens me the most. Whether close or not doesn’t matter, as much as the sad fact that I’ll never in my lifetime see someone again, nor be able to talk with them. So much I would have like to have asked them and wish had spent more time with them. Even the departure of someone I considered a friend is heart breaking, it is saddening.


4. What do you find most frustrating?
I am most frustrated about my inability to financially afford to do the travelling I so desire to do. I so thought that when I retired, I would be able to travel and see friends and loved ones I haven’t seen in a while. I had plans and then Covid it and shut everything down making it impossible to travel and see some of the people I had wanted to visit. It became impossible when they lost the battle of their lives due to Covid. Maybe someday my frustrations will be alleviated.

2023 SYW: July – Week 3

Here are this week’s questions:

1. Do you prefer a sofa (aka couch, settee) or an armchair to relax in? I’ve almost always have sat on a couch to relax in. However, my preference is to relax in a Rocker Recliner, where I can have the options of sitting, rocking, or reclining.


2. Do you prefer to sit at a table to eat your meals, or on a tray?
I grew up always sitting at a table for meals. Since being on my own, I have not always had a table and chairs to being able to sit at to eat my meals. Therefore, I have used a tv table tray to eat my meals.


3. Do you enjoy a glass of wine with your main meal?
No, I do not enjoy a glass of wine with my main meal or any meal. I have never been a wine drinker and gave up drinking any kind of alcohol many years ago.


4. How do you like your chips (aka fries), with salt, sauce, mayo or something else?
I rarely eat chips or fries of any kind. However, one the slim chance that I would eat them I would eat them plain and unsalted.

SYW: 2023 July 3rd

Here are this week’s questions:

  1. Do you own your own home, rent, or something else? Technically, I would have to say where I live is something else. I do not own it. I do not give “money” per say to live here. However, I do give of myself, my time, and my love. You see, I live with my daughter and grandson. I take care of (watch) him 24/7 so my daughter can work. I do all the cooking, laundry, cleaning, and childcare. I contribute to the needs of my grandson, (food and clothing) and try to help my daughter Amy way I can with my limited resources.
  2. What is your favourite ‘go to’ food when you’re feeling under par? I’m not sure that I have a favorite ‘Go to’ food for when I’m feeling under par. If I’m hungry and too exhausted to cook, I tend to fix a tuna fish sandwich. I do not munch just because I’m feeling low. Most days I cook three meals a day regardless of how I’m feeling. After all I will do whatever is in my power to make sure nutritional needs of my grandson are met daily.
  3. Do you indulge retail therapy? No, I believe in only ordering/ buying what I absolutely need. It takes me a lot of time and consideration before I splurge and buy something I desire. Most times I need to justify the purchase to myself buying ordering anything.
  4. How many pairs of shoes do you own? 1 pair of hiking boots, 1 pair of tennis shoes, 1 pair of sandals and 1 pair of slip on clogs. That adds up to a total of 4 pairs of shoes which I own.
A Thankful Heart
