Different life

Is your life today what you pictured a year ago? No way. I have a new job and major family disruption. My life has changed so much this year, see post earlier this week. Like most people I had some ups and downs this year. While I prefer to focus on the ups the downsContinue reading “Different life”

Places

Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech? Yes! I am involved in community theater, both on and off stage. I did it as a kid and picked it up a few years ago. As someone who is introverted and shy it gives me an outlet to be crazy and uninhibited. Giving aContinue reading “Places”

Christmas Boxes

Each year I take out the boxes of Christmas decorations from the attic. Each year I always say that I will organize before I put them back. Each year I don’t. Whatever A year passes (well 11 months) from when I put the boxes away and when I take them out. A year of activityContinue reading “Christmas Boxes”

Morning Has Broken

Are you more of a night or morning person? I’m not sure if this is a typical response. I used to be a night owl. As a kid I would stay up late and watch The Tonight Show (during the summer). I loved the peaceful atmosphere of the night. Once I started working and havingContinue reading “Morning Has Broken”

Going green

Do you or your family make any special dishes for the holidays? My mom’s green bean casserole is a family favorite. My mom buys fresh green beans and painstakingly removes the end then breaks them up. This year a few of us helped with that part. Then it’s the traditional cream of mushroom soup andContinue reading “Going green”

March

What’s your favorite month of the year? Why? In like a lion and out like a lamb. It’s the end of winter and start of spring, things are looking better. We get more sunlight in the day, a lot of positive changes. Also, in my job traditionally this is when the year-end madness slows enoughContinue reading “March”

Toy box

As a kid we had a toy box, I don’t remember where it came from or when we got it. I’m guessing it was there before me. It had weird padded wallpaper around it; not wallpaper but something like that. It was wood and the top opened and had wood slots on the top toContinue reading “Toy box”

Ayyyy

Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met? Not sure if he is the most famous but he is the nicest. I recently met Henry Winkler at a book signing. He was so interesting and engaging and took pictures with 400 + of us. I was one of the last andContinue reading “Ayyyy”

Take this job and shove it

What’s the biggest risk you’d like to take — but haven’t been able to? I’d love to change my career or work for myself but I’m too scared. That and the whole money and insurance thing. I would like to do a job that is more fulfilling than what I do now. I’m not sureContinue reading “Take this job and shove it”

Introverted Hugger

Introverted runner is a hugger. I feel like hugging does not align with being an introvert but maybe they are not related. I’m not big on touching people but I love me a good hug. Not the side shoulder crap. I’m talking big smoosh, squeeze hug. Maybe because my circle of people are close thatContinue reading “Introverted Hugger”
