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

Are you left or right handed?

Right Handed.

If you had only one TV, would you prefer the TV in the living room or another room?

I don’t have a TV in my current location. No room. I can’t afford a TV or the high cost of Cable Television. I did save my Mom’s small TV after she died but that is in storage. Now I’m used to not watching or having a TV so even if my housing situation improves I doubt I would purchase one.

Have you ever participated in a distance walking, swimming, running, or biking event? Tell your story.

Thanks to Uncle Sam who had me marching, walking and running long distances Yes. I served in the U.S. Army from 1977 – 1981 and believe me like that old TV commercial used to say soldiers do more before 9:00 am than most people do during an entire day. Good Old Papa Tango or PT!! CQ banging on your door with a metal stick at 5:00 am so you can make a 6:00 am formation. We ran in boots sometimes our Jump Boots. No fancy sneakers or running shoes. Usually the Sgt. is running alongside the formation calling Cadence. Most of these songs raunchy but you got used to it. They weren’t there to pamper your ears. Here are two of the cleaner Cadence songs from my Army Days.

I was in the 569th PSC, Augsburg, Germany and the 101st Airborne Division (Screaming Eagles)!!

While working at my former company I did participate in one of those Heart or Cancer walks. Can’t remember which one. Maybe once I retire if it is physically possible I might start doing some 5K walks. No running. Bad arthritic knees.

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.

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!

How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

Hard to say. Since I just turned 56 a few days ago it is difficult to imagine a different age. I’ve been told I look like I’m in my 40s so I receive that!

Are you left or right handed?

Right-handed

If you HAD to change your name, what would you change it to?

Cat Woman! I Love Eartha Kitt! She was the best Cat Woman ever!! Plus I Love kitty cats. My two fur children are Sylvester and Weezer.

Where do you hide junk when people come over?

I don’t hide the junk, I throw it away! Or if it is just my brother I might temporarily put it in the closet but I usually throw away junk because I live in a very small space.

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 that God allowed me to see another year of life! Praise God I turned 56! I also Thank the Lord for my good health and strength despite a few health challenges. Looking forward to new income and writing opportunities because God opens doors that No man can close!! Amen!!
