1. On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate your sense of direction? 1=can't find my way out of a paper bag and 10=if I've been somewhere once I can find it blindfolded ten years later.
I am the chief navigator of the family... Having taught school I am good with maps and have a pretty keen since of direction.. and unlike my husband if I do get us lost I'm not afraid to stop and ask for directions and I do understand spoken directions!
When was the last time you looked at/used a map you could hold in your hand? (phones don't count!)
I got the map out of the dashboard compartment yesterday. We were stuck on the interstate for 45 minutes while a trailer trailer was on fire... I was wondering how far the next exit was, thinking we might be able to finagle an exit, but ,alas, we were stuck.. Thankfully, my Dr in Charlottesville who was consulting me about my upcoming MOHS surgery was so great he took me in anyway, even though we were late!
back east, down south, out west, up north
Choose one of these directional expressions and tell us why you chose it.
We live down south, and we go up north to see our kids!! We've never been out west!...Well, no farther than Indiana!
2. Did you do more talking or listening yesterday? Is that typical?
HAHAHAHA
Yesterday after we got home, I talked at probably 7 folks about the crazy day we had..... very atypical!
Describe your yesterday in one word.
Circus!
3. Time, money, water-power-resources, opportunity...which one on the list are you most guilty of wasting? What might you do to change that?
Lately, since retirement , especially since my parents passed, I would have to say I am a time waster....that would be the last couple of years.... but to be fair those previous 5 years were so daunting I 've just been getting over the ordeal!
But in my life I would have to say I wasted good opportunities... sorry to confess it was my own personal fears as a young adult that kept me from seeking the opportunities that came my way!
4. Did your family take regular vacations when you were a kid?
Yes, we took yearly family vacations.
Tell us something you remember about a family road trip from your own childhood.
When I was about 8 years old, our family toured the Great Smoky Mountains. I loved that vacation and have the best memories... things like autumn vistas,
black bears,
log cabins,
and the wonders of Gatlinburg..
(Bear in mind I am remembering it the way it was in 1958.)
While we were in Gatlinburg I was so proud to have my own earned spending money, so I decided to treat mom and dad to breakfast at the restaurant there at our hotel.I'll never forget the feeling of doing something special for my parents!
5. If you could grow anything you wanted, what would you grow? Why?
Well, Ive been trying to grow these for two years and the plants are either eaten by deer or just wont grow for me!!!
Limelight hydrangeas
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I am so thankful that I bit the bullet and went ahead and called Charlottesville, related to the UVA Medical center.... something I wouldn't just naturally choose to do. But after two friends who had used this physician for MOHS surgery so highly recommended him I was compelled ti give it a try.. He is completely awesome and I got in to see him twice as quickly as I was getting to see a local surgeon.. Thank you, Lord for working all things for my good!!!
