Share Your World

Been anywhere recently for the first time? Well one of my many doctors moved their office further uptown but that’s about it. I don’t do any traveling that entails leaving New York City. I’d like to but I don’t have the money for even a bus or train trip upstate to the country. I still want to go to Saratoga for the hot springs but that is only a dream/fantasy. No money. No tickets! However my doctors are getting rich from me so they are probably taking many wonderful trips and vacations!

List three favorite book characters.

Alice in Wonderland

Pippi Longstocking

Prophetess and Biblical Warrior DeBorah from the Book of Judges Chapters 4 & 5

What is your favorite non alcoholic drink: hot or cold?

Water or Tea

What was or is your favorite cartoon?

Buggs Bunny or Woody Woodpecker

Which cooking utensil (other than the usual pots and pans etc) would you miss the most?

I don’t cook so I don’t or would not miss any of them. As long as Take Out and Grub Hub exist I’m good.

Would you dare to sleep in haunted house overnight?

Nope

What is your favorite color of hair? You can name your hair color or a color that you just like.

Purple or Red. Right now I’ve gone back to gray since my hair has started to come out I just cut it all off.

List at least 5 things that you are good at.

Photography

Collages

Writing

Being Alone

That’s about it. I have no special gifts or talents. You won’t see me on Dancing with the Stars or America’s Got Talent because I have none!

Plus I don’t think I’m a good writer. Nothing stands out about me. Obviously I’m Not good at keeping up with Share Your World as I am almost 3 weeks behind but a lot has been going on in my life mostly not good but I won’t share that. Way too depressing. I will only share happy news when it comes.

What is your favorite animal or type of animal? (pets, dolphins, stuffed, wild cats, etc)

Cats, Especially my cat Sylvester

With your answers, please remember we are in the SYW world which may not always match our reality.

If you were given a boat or yacht today, what would you name it? (You can always sell the yacht later)

My Yacht worthy of the Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous would be christened “The Wanderlust!!” As you can see Stephen is ready for our great Sailing Adventures!!

Sailor Stephen

Sailor Stephen

Which of Snow White’s 7 dwarfs describes you best? (Doc, Happy, Bashful, Sleepy, Sneezy, Grumpy, Dopey)Plus what would the 8th dwarf’s name be?

Sleepy. I Love Napping and my job makes me tired after a long week at work. Even though I have chronic Insomnia which only bothers me at night. During the day I could easily be a Professional Napper. The 8th Dwarf’s Name would be Wacky!!

I will survive – Gloria Gaynor

The Pointer sisters – I’m so excited

Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

That I was able to help a co-worker who was depressed about a family situation. Not that I did anything special but I listened and gave her a shoulder to cry on plus some words of encouragement.

Getting dance crazy with buddies this weekend!!

Looking forward to and hoping for a quiet calm work week.

Share Your World – 2016 Week 34

With your answers, please remember we are in the SYW world which may not always match our reality.

What is your favorite comfort snack food?

CHOCOLATE!!

Is the paper money in your possession right now organized sequentially according to denomination and with the bills right side up and facing the same way?

Yes! Nerd City! LOL!! 🙂

If you were a mouse in your house in the evening, what would you see your family doing?

Being that my family is my cat Sylvester. (My brother Stephen does not live with me.) And Sylvester is a Mouser Extraordinaire that would be one Dead Mouse!! Be it Chuck E. Cheese, Mickey, Minnie or Mighty Mouse (which are nothing but glorified rats to me!) I’d be playing Taps for the mouse before evening became morning.

Would you rather not be able to read or not be able to speak?

Speak. Reading is my Life. Anyway technology exists for people with brain damage, damaged or non-working voice boxes that enables them to speak.

Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

I will use a modified Facebook post to declare my Gratitude and Appreciation!!

First reason for my Love of my Dresses: The Visitors/Public often mistake me for a man. At least once or twice a week museum visitors address me as Sir or Mr. ???? Sometimes instead of the pants I’ll wear the skirt so they will at least see me as female not male.

Why do I Love wearing dresses?! Because of all the Lovely compliments. Usually many of my co-workers are only used to seeing me in my rather drab ugly uniform. This morning I ran into male co-worker at the local deli not far from our workplace. He had such nice things to say about my dress and about how much better it looked than the uniform! LOL! I just felt so happy and the good feeling stayed with me all day! For women our uniforms make us look like Charlie Chaplin! Yes Dresses are much much better. Makes me feel so feminine. Singing the song, “I feel Pretty! Oh So Pretty!” LOL!!

Another male Co-worker complimented me either Friday or Saturday at work. It felt so good to hear his wonderful words. At least I know I’m not a total dork or nerd. It does not matter how old you get as a Woman you still want to hear from Men that you look good. Especially now that I’m in my late 50s I really appreciate those special uplifting words from men of all races.

I’m also grateful that Thursday I was able to attend the annual Union Basketball game. Free pizza and chicken. Nothing like seeing our guys get down on the Basketball court!! A great time was had by all!

As for next week I look forward to my weekend which is Sunday/Monday. Rest, Sleep & Relaxation.

Share Your World – 2015 Week #11

List 2 things you have to be happy about?

Life and Health

Do you prefer ketchup or mustard or mayonnaise?

Ketchup but if no Ketchup I’ll take honey mustard on my sandwich. I’m allergic to mayonnaise.

If you were to paint a picture of your childhood, what colors would you use?

Red, Blue & Green.

Do you prefer a bath or shower?

Shower. Quicker and more efficient. I do enjoy baths when I have time to enjoy a long soak. I Love Bubble baths but I usually wind up taking Epsom Salt baths to soothe my arthritis. I wish I lived in a High Tech House by the beach with a Hot Tub and one of those showers that has shower heads that massage you from all angles. Long ago I went to Warm Springs, Ga to visit FDR’s Little White House. At the time it was thought that the hot springs soothed and eased President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s polio.

Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

My New Bed. Great for my aching back. Warmer temps in New York City. Now I can do more walking exercise outside. Being outside on a warm Spring day gives me more photo opportunities.

Share Your World

http://ceenphotography.com/2015/03/09/share-your-world-2015-week-10/

When you lose electricity in a storm, do you light the candles or turn on the flashlight? How many of each do you own?

So far no blackouts have occurred since living in Brooklyn. Before when I lived in Queens I was fortunate in that the development I lived in had its own power plant so if the lights went out in the rest of New York I still have electricity. If that happened now I’d prefer a flashlight.

You are given $5,000 and the chance to exchange it for one of two envelopes. One envelope contains $50,000 and one contains $500. Do you make the trade? Why or why not?

I’d trade up to the envelope with $50,000, quit my job and travel for one year to every warm sunny island I could get to. I’m ready for adventure! Roadtrip!!

What’s your first memory?

I must have been around two and saw my baby brother in my former crib. He reached his hand out to me and I bit him!! He screamed, my mother ran in the room and put me out!! LOL!! Fortunately now I’m well past the biting stage and my brother and I are very close.

What do you do if you can’t sleep at night? Do you count sheep, toss and turn, or get up and try to do something?

I have chronic insomnia. I rarely sleep well. When the problem first started the doctors put me on Ambien, however that has very bad side effects so I had to stop taking it about 2 1/2 years ago. Now I just take Advil PM. When it does not work I write.

Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

Made it through work last week. Awaiting my new bed which I hope will solve my back pain problems. So I look forward to getting relief from back pain. Am Also grateful that the snow is melting and the weather is getting warmer here in New York!
