September begins quietly and with somewhat less heat than August but will that last?Today is sunny and warm. The cicadas are singing, crickets talking, fish are swimming peacefully and jumping for the occasional bug that flies by.
The ocean is 78F, the air is 83F but not stiffling at all. A nice offshore breeze is blowing and refreshing.Waves are calm at 1 -2 feet today.
I'm joining in Sunday Stealing again this week: click the logo to join in.
What is one thing that you would change about yourself if you could?
I would have a new spine and new heart.

| Secret to Life?? |
Just one exotic one: Tahiti
What do you think the secret to life is?
There is no secret to life. God explained it all in his Bible. You just follow the directions and depend on Him.
Best concert:
I really don't like concerts because they are far too loud. Trans Siberian Orchestra was good with laser light show and of course, the song Wizards of Winter. But, not a concert fan. Most groups sound far better electronically souped on on digital or records.
Song you can listen to over and over and not get tired of:
None. I eventually do get tired of it.
Though I admit there are songs I like very much but hearing them played over and over is often just too much!
Worst movie music soundtrack or score:
It would be easier to tell you the best. I don't have one that I think was the worst.
A song you wish wouldn't get stuck in your head but always does:
I don't know an answer to this.

What was your FIRST job?
Working in a 5 & 10 store when I was 15.

It was silver with a red racing stripe down the middle. To be honest it was my fiance's car. He was an engineer for IBM. He went to California for extra schooling and I took care of it for 6 months all to myself. He said, "She's yours now, so be sure to drive it daily and keep the engine clean" He taught me to drive stick and down shift,etc. Boy, did I ever drive that car! I loved it. 0 -60 in seconds.
After we married my first car was an old used red car and then a white Ford F 150 because I hauled horses,etc.

Home from school. I flew commercial but thereafter hitched rides with student pilots racking up hours.

Francine Levi was my first friend.

My half- sister. I was 3 years old., she was in her late 20s, not much younger than my mother.

I enjoy ed your post, Annie. It's very humid here in western NY. Sigh....smiles.😊
ReplyDeleteYou do know you're okay even if you don't feel it, right? Or so folks tell me. I miss that old life of mine, too, but accepting the new one is important. So I must try.
ReplyDeleteThere is no secret...isn't that wonderful that it's right there for everyone who accepts it? I wish you could have your wish. My late father-in-law's half sister was a year younger than his oldest child! The girls used to get in trouble in school for lying when they insisted they were aunt and niece. The heat and humidity are both quite high here in southwestern PA and it's to stay through most of the coming week. Enjoy the rest of your day!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your answers! Good questions (again) this week. Wishing you a good holiday and week ahead!
ReplyDeleteWhat a good and honest answers. I wish I could give you a piece of you health back. But I can not. we have to deal with it and that is hard often. So funny what you write about your first car!
ReplyDeleteI love the Trans Siberian Orchestra. Their songs make me happy.
ReplyDeleteHi Annie! I used to be able to tolerate noise, but now I couldn't go to a concert if I wanted to. I agree, they are too loud! I love Trans Siberian Orchestra!
ReplyDeleteGreat answer to secret of life! So true!
Happy Labor Day! I loved your answers!

I enjoy your candor and the openness of both the questions and your answers .
ReplyDeleteIt is frustrating , in this day and age , that the simple things in life are so very hard to find .
Most people want to be loved...for who they actually are...valued and treasured bu the one they love .Those who "got it right" seem to be in the vast minority and are wistfully admired by those of us bereft of those blessings .
May all your wishes come true !
Be well , my friend
