a downton abby style house, with servants and stuff.

have you seen downton abby?. did you like it?

Bipolarchic14 · Jan 28, 2021 at 12:59 PM

I have not seen Downton Abbey. My brother has watched it though and he loves it. Patriotic question here… Have you thought about things you could do to help your country? That has been on my mind a lot. I don’t feel that I have done enough for my country.

it's never really crossed my mind, no.
question: where do you see your area being in the summer (refering to covid restrictions?)

Fuzzybear · Jan 30, 2021 at 12:41 PM

No idea.

Were you ever asked when about aged 20 ''where do you think you will be in 5 years time'' in a job interview, and did you dislike this question?

Not at 20. I was a junior at university. I did work summer jobs, but the bosses at such jobs didn't expect I would be looking for a career position with them. I have, however, been asked that question, but not until I was more in a career position.

I do think the question has merit, not only for the hiring manager, but for the interviewee. One generally wants to know what the career path is. I've interviewed for positions that I decided against. The interview is a two-way street.

How close to your interests has any particular job been for you?

Miss Laura · Jan 30, 2021 at 03:20 PM

Very close... I wanted to work with people with special needs and I did both voluntary and paid for over 10 years. It gave me so much experience, I gained a lot of respect for individuals with disabilities and I saw the outcome of sheer hard work from both client and worker.

Question: How do you deal with wearing a mask? What are your experiences? How do you feel? I mean the masls we all have to wear now to protect us

MuddyBoots · Jan 30, 2021 at 03:27 PM

I have no problem wearing a mask. Remembering, yeah, that's a problem, but actually wearing them is not a problem at all. Wore one while working outside in humid 90+ degree weather over the summer, wear one while skiing or hiking on busy days (usually I just keep it in my pocket and put it on when I hear people coming when hiking though). People that complain about having to wear one while in the grocery store are wimps. I will say, last time I went skiing it was below 0F and I only have a cotton mask (my face mask doesn't stay over my nose very well so I can't wear it) so it was a solid brick of ice, but I can't imagine it being any worse than a beardcicle.

When's the last time you got precipitation and what type was it?

I don't know. not read a novel in months. just don't have the attention span for them anymore. sad really, their's a lot of good ones waiting to be read.
something that you don't have the focus for anymore but wish you still did?

Actually, on the topic of novels, I'd say reading long books or novels is something I have trouble with now. I actually read a great deal, but it's now easier to read many many shorter articles/bits than to commit to a single long written piece. In my youth, I could sit for hours reading a single book. I haven't read one, cover to cover, in a long time. I'm almost embarrassed to say so.

What is your favorite kind of reading (or writing) to do?

Jan 31, 2021 at 05:17 AM

journalling, because it's all just so random and you can say what you want. for ages now I've wished this forum would have a private journal section

also I like poetry- both reading it and writing it
what is the best meal that you have ever had.

Feb 02, 2021 at 05:16 AM

anything with chicken in it,. chicken is my life!.

ever felt embarrassed to post something on here?

lightly toasted · Feb 02, 2021 at 04:50 PM

I have felt embarrassed by many things I've posted here - but I'd have very little to post if I avoided the embarassing things I guess. There are many things I still keep private.

What are you looking forward to doing once you've had the vaccine, and covid is more contained?

Fuzzybear · Feb 02, 2021 at 10:06 PM

I am unsure...

Colour of your first bike?

Bipolarchic14 · Feb 02, 2021 at 11:36 PM

Hot pink! Do you have anything you’re working on right now to improve your life?

BeyondtheRainbow · Feb 03, 2021 at 12:07 AM

I'm doing a Bible study course thing on grieving that is really helping me.

Have you ever been to Niagara Falls?

Yes, once. It is nice. We were driving from NJ to Michigan to visit my husband's nephew who was there staying with his American godfather. It was sort of en route.We also visited a friend near Toronto, Canada on that trip.

Do you like any form of water sports? What?

MuddyBoots · Feb 03, 2021 at 06:58 AM

Water volleyball is fun.

Do you like any winter sports?
