Have you ever, or would you like to, go on a whale watching expedition?

Yes, Hubby and I went on a whale watching boat trip off the coast of Nova Scotia. It was nice. We also saw an Atlantic puffin. We also took a lobstering boat trip off the coast of Maine.

Have you ever been on a boat? What type(s)? And for what purpose(s)?

MuddyBoots · Jan 08, 2021 at 06:03 PM

I've been kayaking and canoeing a lot in years past and went on a whale watch once as a biology class field trip (we didn't see any whales, but three people threw up)

What's your favorite outdoor activity?

Question: if you have a birthday between now and February.... how will you spend it what will you do to make it special? We all need to be treated and to treat ourselves right?

Jan 09, 2021 at 10:15 AM

mine isn't until May.... and I don't celebrate anyway!. last year I had KFC, sat around feeling like I'd wasted an entire year, and did nothing else

but the KFC was nice..

do you believe in tarot cards, and have you (or someone you know) ever had a reading

*Beth* · Jan 09, 2021 at 03:56 PM

I believe that there's "something" to tarot. Maybe our subconscious energy affects the outcome of the cards. I owned a beautiful Aquarian deck that I had for 52 years, but it was stolen. Fie on the person who stole my deck. I used to do readings, and I have had readings done for me. Mostly, it's a game to me.

Are you doing any chores today?

Jan 09, 2021 at 04:11 PM

nope.

do you have a big collection of dvds?

Miss Laura · Jan 09, 2021 at 04:18 PM

Yes including boxsets I have 300 I have bad obsessions with collecting dvds ooops

Question: Favourite boxset you have or have seen?

BeyondtheRainbow · Jan 09, 2021 at 10:31 PM

I have Friends box set and use it to fall asleep most nights. I'm going to buy the Office set too. The price went up after Christmas and I missed the lower price because I didn't expect it to go up as fast as it did.

Have you ever planted a tree?

lightly toasted · Jan 09, 2021 at 11:08 PM

Yes. When I was little my brother gave me a seedling for my birthday. But it got ripped up when a man came with his plow to till my mom's vegetable garden

Are you nervous (covid-wise) going out and shopping for essentials? Or do you feel pretty safe as long as you safe distance and have your mask on?

Jan 10, 2021 at 07:55 AM

I do all my shopping online so I don't really think about it.
I wouldn't feel safe thhough if I went out- scared of zombie apocalypse

have you ever, in someway or another, helped someone who is homeless?

Fuzzybear · Jan 10, 2021 at 01:01 PM

I have not (I would have done if I'd known someone already who was homeless).

Favourite place you've lived? (location)

lightly toasted · Jan 10, 2021 at 01:22 PM

An apartment a few blocks from me that I lost to my ex.

Before covid, did you like browsing a new grocery store?

Fuzzybear · Jan 10, 2021 at 04:41 PM

Sometimes.

Age when you first showed symptoms of bipolar?

I can't be 100% sure since as a child one can deny, hide, or just misunderstand what's going on. I do believe I likely had symptoms before age 14, but I can say with certainty that I had them at 14 and on. My first severe episode was at age 16. That year my school even forced my parents to send me to a child psychologist. I was also transferred to a private school because of what was going on with me. During that period, I also "sought God" despite never being religious (nor were my parents), to the point of joining the Roman Catholic church. I was hyperreligious.

If you could walk outside right now and see anything you'd like, what would it be?

lightly toasted · Jan 11, 2021 at 11:24 AM

Sunshine, and a friend who could give me a hug.

Is your home drop in visit ready, or would you be embarrassed if someone saw the state of your home? I would be ashamed, I've just not been able to keep up, despite doing my best each day.

Fuzzybear · Jan 11, 2021 at 04:23 PM

Definitely not ready for a ''normal'' visitor. They would not be approving of it at all.

Do you like the snow?

Moose72 · Jan 12, 2021 at 06:14 PM

No, I don't like the snow. It's cold and wet and you have to shovel/scrape your car in order to go anywhere. And if they don't scrape the roads its very slippery out.

What are your children doing these days?
