Questions and Answers with TBB


And, once again, I'm linking up with the gals over at The Blended Blog to answer their questions.  It's always fun to read everyone's answers as it lets us know a little more about them.  Always interesting!

 1. Pool, lake or ocean? I love the ocean, but I rarely go to the beach.  I'm not fond of sand, but to listen to the waves is so soothing and peaceful.  But, I prefer our little pond just a few feet behind our house. ~just sayin'"
 2. Camping, cottage or hotel? Well, there's NO camping for this gal!  So, a lovely cottage or hotel room will work for me.
 3. Favorite ice cream flavor?  It's rare for me to eat anything but vanilla.  Now, I might add some slivered almonds to it. ~grin~
 4. PJ's, Nighgown, T-Shirt/Shorts or Birthday Suit? I bought some of the silky soft tee shirts from Soma a few years back and that's my sleeping attire.  I cannot stand anything on or around my legs when I am sleeping.
 5. Fave Summer Beverage? I'm a big time water drinker, but, especially in the summer, I love to drive thru Sonic for a cherry vanilla Diet Dr. Pepper.  LOVE!!!
 6. Would you rather be hot or cold? Well, I can warm up easier than I cool down so I'm going to say cold.
 7. Sandals with heels or flats? Heels, always!  I do not like flats at all.  And, I only wear a moderate heel but I love the wedges that are elevated flats with just a slight curve. ~great description, don't you think~ 😉 
 8. Shorts or skirts? This would be a tie, I like them both.
 9. Sit in the sun or the shade? It would be SHADE with a capitol "S."
10. Water, tea or soda? I like all 3, I try to drink mostly water but I do indulge in tea and soda on occasion.
11. Favorite summer fruit, vegetable I'm not a big fan of fruit, but I love some peas and okra
12. Sunrise or sunset? I would have to say a sunset but here on the hill we live on we have some gorgeous sunrises too.
13. Bike ride or walk? I have not ridden a bike in a very long time so I'm going with walk because I do enjoy walking and not so sure I would enjoy a bike ride anymore. ~it's just the truth~
14. Winery or brewery?  Neither
15. Garden or no garden? We have a nice little Farmer's Market where I can get all the fresh produce I want, so it's no garden for me.
16. Big summer concert or music in the park? I'm not much into big crowds anymore so I'd choose music in the park on a cool evening.
17. Fave cookout food  It would b e a grilled hamburger. ~the best~
18. Dine indoors or patio? 90% of the time we eat indoors but we have enjoyed some back porch dining on particularly nice days a few times. 
19. Fave summer destination I have no particular favorite summer destination now.  Growing up my favorite place to go was to see my Grandparents and cousins.  We lived 1000 miles apart and we always traveled to see them in the summer. ~sweet memories~
20. Big theme park or local carnival? Again, at this point in my life I'm not much into either one but I might could have my arm twisted and go to a local carnival.
21. Drinks blended or on the rocks? I love my tea or soft drink over lots of ice but my water anywhere from cool to room temperature is fine.
22. Popsicle or freezie flavour of choice  I'm not much into popsicles or anything of that nature.  They hurt my teeth.
23. Hot dog or hamburger?  A hamburger with spicy mayo, lettuce, onion, and pickles.  Not much better!  
And, there you have it.  

Added Note: If you are connected with me through Facebook then you saw my post about my good report from my Retina Specialist on Friday.  I was most thankful that he said my eyes are healing nicely and he lifted the restrictions.  I will go back in two months.  He did say that I should be mindful of lifting anything that strains my neck muscles because if it strains the neck, it also strains the eye muscle.  I did not know that.  He said folks are always concerned about their backs when lifting but they should also be concerned about their eyes.  Who knew?  I'll stop and think a little harder now before lifting a heavy object.

Have a great new week!

  8. One of the most tangible benefits of blogging is to read and learn from the experiences of others. This time I am thinking of how you shared what your eye doctor said about heavy lifting and straining, how it can adversely affect the eyes. I did not know that and really appreciate you telling us.

    I would have answered many of these questions as you did. We prefer to eat indoors most of the time when there is a choice at a restaurant and I really don't like to be in big crowds nor heavy traffic if I can avoid it.

    Thanks for sharing! Have a good week, Lea!
