1. Have you ever known anyone that’s been on TV, including you?
I have sat on Uncle Looney's lap for the local kiddie show probably back in 1956, I have sung in a several choir Christmas production, and I have been interviewed for a news segment to highlight when Amanda sang in the College Children's Choir and was interviewed along with a few other mothers for a news segment highlighting when Amanda went to New York to perform.
2. What do you find yourself buying all the time?
I take so many of them, it seems I buy a supplement every time I go shopping.... turmeric, B12, glucosamine, calcium, D3, magnesium, just to name a few.. I wish they would start kicking in and strengthen my poor knee!!
3. When was the last time you got a real letter in the mail?
Last week I got a letter firm my granddaughter, It was pretty much unreadable but I treasure it!!
4. Have you ever lived in a house/apartment that has been broken into?
Yes, our first apartment was burgled.. they made away with our wonderful stereo sound system we had bought while serving in Germany.Unfortunately, I was alone when this happened.. I mean I came home form work to find the door ajar and the place ransacked. it was pretty terrifying.
I'm surprised so many of T4M bloggers have received snail mail. Nice to know people still write. I was married only 7 months when thieves broke into my apartment and took everything we had. They even emptied out the garbage on our bed. The neighbor in the apt near us watched them remove the lock and tumbler and just locked her door and ignored them. No, you never forget. 😡
ReplyDeleteWe were always pretty sure that our thieves were the guys who lived below us.. Suddenly they had a nice sounding stereo in the back rroom under our bedroom they played late into the night.. I was never so glad to get out of that and into our first home!
DeleteI've done a few television interviews through work-related events and, yes! I, too, treasure those mostly unreadable letters from the grandlittles! They're so special! Am sorry to hear of your break-in experience. How frightening! Hope you're enjoying a lovely October 1st! Blessings, my friend! <3
ReplyDeleteI hope your knee gets better soon. It's no fun to have those kinds of problems. I can imagine how awful it must be to come home to find someone violated your home and privacy.. awful!
ReplyDeleteI wrote to my Grandma too when she was still living. She was the only one I wrote regularly. I quit when she passed away. It may be because it was a special thing between the two of us. I do send lots of Christmas cards, but I do not even think people are really doing those anymore. It is so sad. I love getting mail. That is scary about your house. Hope your knee gets better! Loved your answers! Have a nice week.

DeleteI am so bad about not correcting my typing before sending.. It can really be a mess sometimes! I also love to send Christmas cards I send at least 50 to family and friends.. I hate to see our best traditions fall away! Have a great weekend coming up!
DeleteOh my gosh... that is what I came home to as well.. the door open and the mess.... it was so scary... and stupid me... I went in and walked through the house to pick up the house phone to call 911... all while holding my cell phone. duh. The really scary - I could have walked in on them.. as it wasn't too much time in between the time my son had left to go to work and when I got back home. The door that was wide open isn't even a door we use much (only to get the mail - we use a side door to go in and out of to our cars).
ReplyDeleteHow fun to get a letter from your granddaughter... readable or not.. still special all the same!! Have a great week!
Yes, dumb me went right in as well.. Praise God no one was there for either of us... That episode sort of set me up with a victim mentality that has been hard to shake for many years. We always suspected the culprits were our neighbors downstairs. Suddenly we could hear a fine sounding stereo right below our bedroom late evey night.. I was never so glad to get out of that apartment and into our first home!
