About 50% of the time, nowadays. Most afternoons before our move. The mornings would be regular American coffee, the afternoons, single espresso. Recently, I reheat leftover morning coffee. As for tea, I used to be a major hot tea enthusiast in my youth, but for some reason that stopped. In warmer months, I do make and love iced tea. Coincidentally, I did make hot tea yesterday afternoon. Earl Grey. Do you consider yourself a somewhat picky eater? What foods, if any, do you really despise? |

oh yes!. I am defenetly a picky eater. if it is not fries, chicken or sausage, their's going to be an issue
I would say I despise anything green. litirally I do not eat my veg and I don't like pasta and baked beans and I'm alergic to nuts and icecream and hate cheese and the list goes on and on.. how worried (if at all) are you that people you know might be reading these forums?. are you careful about what you say in your threads just in case? |

I am careful not to post anything too identifying about my location and who I am exactly, just for general internet safety reasons. And I'm definitely not worried about anyone I know reading my posts. I just can't imagine anyone being even remotely interested.
It's an interesting question. I'll repeat it..Do you think anyone you know reads your posts, and does that influence what you post? |

I do avoid important topics on my blog and any social media. Doing so there can be dangerous! How private of a person are you in real life? |

I overshare and I’m working on not doing that as much. Do you let other peoples opinions or perceived opinions affect you? If so do you wish to change this?
|
#31
|
|||
|
|||
no, and no.
I don't change for anyone and if people have something to say, they can say it to my face and probably... (more often than not) get something just as harsh back in return. my one problem (that makes me angry) is compliments. I just can't see what good anyone would see in me- and no, I don't want to change that, either. bottom line: I don't see it, so that is the end question: what is something that you used to be able to do when you were younger which you miss doing now? (something you can no longer do for what ever reason) |

Riding a bike. Shoulder injury prevents that now.
Have you ever gone scuba diving? |
#33

|

Never gone scuba diving but I do wish I could sing like I used to be able to. I did sing in the shower this morning and that was nice. (Sorry couldn't resist answering that one because its a big part of my life.)
If you have grown kids how often do you see them?

My daughter, age 35, has not communicated with me since I went IP in November of 2018. Prior to that we were extremely close. We saw each other several times/week. The entire situation is heartbreaking to me. I believe her husband is encouraging her to stay away from me. It was an argument with him that precipitated my IP stay.
My son is 32 and I communicate with him almost every day. I was seeing him and my dear DIL about 4 times per year (they live in San Francisco now, but were living in Paris previously). Because of stupid covid, we hadn't seen each other for a year - until 2 weeks ago. We finally decided to meet with masks on and we had a fabulous afternoon together. Do you dream in color?

Do you have a pet that sleeps with you?

Too numerous to count! I've had many dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, reptiles, birds, tropical fish, a domesticated squirrel...I hope I'm not leaving anyone out. I've had as many as six dogs at one time in the past, but only have one now. Dogs are my favorite; I haven't always done a good job taking care of myself, but have always taken good care of my animals.

The most exotic place was Israel. A bit too exotic, frankly, to my surprise.
Do you enjoy visiting book stores?

Yes I like book stores. Every so often I find a book or two that I'm really interested in. Before covid, I used to hang out there with my friend and we'd read a million magazines or pull out a book that looks good and go sit in the comfy chairs and just read for hours.
What do you do when you disagree with your child(ren)? I hate arguing with them because they'd never say "You know... You're right, Mom!"
