SHARE YOUR WORLD – 2016 WEEK 1

As a child, who was your favorite relative?

My Aunt Thelma Palmer Varner. I spent many happy times with her at her apartment in Co-op City Bronx, NY.  She also took me to the movies, petting zoos, shopping etc…  Aunt Thelma was the “funny story” Aunt. Always having some weird, wacky yet wonderful NYC adventure. I was truly brokenhearted when she passed away from breast cancer in 1985. After she left the body I became very close to my Aunt Helen Palmer Garcia (the woman in the pink dress) who went to be with the Lord May 2010 at age 89.  Both my Aunts (My Dad’s Sisters) had a great and positive impact on my life.

If you could be a tree or plant, what would you be?

A Palm Tree that way I’d know I’d be in a warm climate!!  Or a Rose bush because that was my Mom Mable Elizabeth Palmer’s favorite flower. She planted many rosebushes in our backyard when I was growing up.

What would be your preference, awake before dawn or awake before noon?

Awake before Noon! Unfortunately my body clock loves to wake me up before dawn! Dang Insomnia!!

Would you like to sleep in a human size nest in a tree or be snuggled in a burrowed spot underground?

I don’t like heights but I’ve rather sleep in a well secured human size tree nest since being burrowed in the ground sounds too much like being buried underground!!  I wanna me Jesus but not right now!!  Let me sleep with the Eagles!

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

I’m grateful for the Blessing to have spent time with my brother Stephen Vincent Palmer on Christmas Day and the following weekend. Regular readers of my blog know how much I Love my brother Stephen. He was my own personal Christmas gift! I’m also grateful for the Me-time I took this past New Year’s weekend. I just relaxed, rested, wrote my blogs, did my Soulful Struts, took photos and just enjoyed my time as a Solitary.  As for the upcoming week I requested Friday, Jan. 8th off from work so I can attend a progress report meeting at Stephen’s Day Treatment Center, AABR.  Anytime with Stephen is time well spent!
