1. The Summer Olympics begin next week and London is playing host. If
you had the chance to go in person which (non-Olympic) London site would
you most like to visit?I really can't say on this one as I don't know the sites that are there.
2. What is something in your life right now that feels like an Olympic event?
Everything is really going pretty smoothly right now. If I had to pick something, I guess it would be the house remodeling - very slow process as I have to do it a little at a time as I can afford it.
3. What's your favorite supper to prepare and serve when it's too hot to cook?
Maybe a salad with either some chicken, turkey, or ham.
4. July 18th is National Get Out of the Doghouse Day...when was the last time you were 'in the doghouse'?
The only person who can put me in the doghouse is myself - well maybe that's not true. My kids can sort of "reprimand" me when they feel like it.
5.
What television advertisement do you find particularly irritating or
inappropriate? You may not answer with 'all of them'. I know some of
you were thinking about it.
The Progressive Insurance commercials are so stupid they annoy me! Also the cable TV - "Don't fall into a dinner party" - those annoy me too.
6. Share one piece of interesting news from the year you were born.
Typhoon Georgia struck Japan, killing 137 people. Hitting Honshu Island, the typhoon caused the worst damage in history to Japan's rail lines. This happened on August 14, 1959 - the day I was born!
7. What's the best part of your average day?
In one word - COFFEE!
8. Insert your own random thought here.
I am very late today (or tonight). I looked at the questions this morning and knew they were going to require some thought. Had tomatoes to can tonight so I had to do that first. Better late than never, right?

I don't always comment, but always enjoy your blog. I notice that you were also born in 1959...as was I. My birthday is October 9, 1959 so we are pretty close! I didn't know those facts about things that happened in 1959. Very interesting. Have a great Thursday tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteIt was interesting reading your answers. I agree with your answer to number 5. Those ads are ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteI am often in the better late than never camp :) Joyce does come up with great thought inducing questions...I think if I was doing it my questions would be more like, "Do you like the color red?"
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of the Progressive commercials either. Home canned tomatoes-yum!
ReplyDeleteI can't stand those Progressive commercials either. My baby sister was born in 1959.
ReplyDeleteI hate all insurance commercials. Who comes up with those things?
ReplyDeleteLove home grown and home canned tomatoes, tho...today is farmer's market day, so maybe I'll get lucky and find some!
I see you don't like Flo, either. I found a few others also agreed with us on the Progressive commercials.
