1. What are your plans for February?
We'll have mac & cheese on the 4th, for David's birthday. Walt will send chocolate to all the kids and their spouses for Valentine's day (and maybe Ned will pick up heart shaped pizzas for dinner). I turn 81 on the 17th, Walt turns 84 on the 26th.

5. How often do you try something new?
My first opinion is "not very often," but I've been watching YouTube videos this week about how to decorate 3x5 cards and having a great time making little envelopes out of them.

9. Do you like brunch?
Love it!
10. Do you get stage fright?
Very definitely.
11. Which podcasts do you like at the moment?

12. One thing that immediately makes your day better
Waking up to the smell of brewing coffee.

13. Which family members are you closest to?
Walt and Ned, of course, who both live here. Jeri and I also keep in close touch, though she is in Boston, by text messages and phone calls. I was very close to my mother and to two of my cousins, but they are all dead now.

14. Something you practice often
I can't think of anything I practice, unless writing this blog and lots and lots of letters can be called practicing writing.
15. Are you a light sleeper or a deep sleeper?
Oh lord...so very, very light! If I get 3 hours of sleep in a row, that's a full night of sleep!

I should check out Anderson Cooper's podcast. I'm going to two Death Cafes this month.
ReplyDeleteDo. It's wonderful. Particularly check out his conversation with Stephen Colbert, which was I think the very first of the podcasts.
DeleteI think people do need to practice writing. I do it every day too (though I didn't mention it). I also go for a 3 to 4 mile walk every day.
ReplyDelete:o)
