Sunday Stealing

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme.
Let's go!!!


This week's questions come from a blog called In Case You Were Wondering....



Meme 325

Something that’s holding you back from achieving your dreams:  Age.  I got too old.

Something you think you could win an award for:  Really, an award?  Tilting at Windmills?

Something you fear more than anything:   I'm so afraid of it, I can't name it.

Something you wish people would understand:  Life is short.

Something that keeps you going everyday:  The beauty of nature, and Love.

Something amazing that happened last summer:  My oldest daughter talked to me, heart to heart.

Something you hate that people say:  "You know I'm right!" when clearly, historically, they are not right.
Something you refuse to pay money for:   War, if I could do it.

Something you wish you could have told that person that you never saw again:  I would have told my mother how much I love her and appreciated that she tried to give us so much when she had very little.  She gave us all a great work ethic and the love of nature, the plants and animals.  She was a gentle and unassuming person.

Something that really stands out about last year:   Getting over the mind crushing anesthetics from knee surgery.

Something you like that everyone else thinks is weird:  I like skunks and the way they smell.  I think this is because I was sprayed by one when we were trying to catch 13 of them, two mothers and 11 babies, for Project Wildlife.

Something you do when you’re trying to calm down:  I breathe, and tell myself, "It's only a Thought".

Something you do when you wake up at three AM:  I pray a little, then push myself back to sleep.

Something amazing that’s happened this year:    The priest who appeared at the crash scene in Mo. 

Something you love doing on cold rainy days:  I love to knit all snuggled into my comfy chair.

Something you listen to when you’re in a really good mood:  Slack key Guitar, although it PUTS me in a good mood.

Something that irritates you more than anything:  repetitive scratching noises.

Something you’re addicted to/can’t stop doing:  Crafting counts, yes?

Something that really stands out about you:  I'm invisible.

Something about you that’s like everyone else:  I breathe in and out.  I bleed.

Something that makes you change the channel:  I won't watch animal cruelty or anything that is like real life cruelty to anyone.

Something you think about every night before you go to sleep:  I think of Nothing just to go to sleep.  Anything I like would keep me awake all night long!

Something that you don’t think will ever change about you:  I will never, EVER, be cruel.

Something about you that you think will soon change:   Well, I might become a butterfly.
Something that broke your heart as a child:  my paternal unit.

Something that really sparks your interest:  I love flowers and plants and being able to make a new plant with a cutting.

Something that truly disgusts you:  The way that people have been lied to  and manipulated by others who used them.

Something the opposite gender has complimented you on:  my voice.

  1. Your link on the Sunday Stealing page doesn't work, but I knew your blog address, so I could come visit. ;-)

    I also love plants and flowers, but I have the black thumb of death. I accept that I'm meant to appreciate them.

    1. Thank you for the head's up on that Linky. I was soooo tired this morning- after the marathon of activity with prickly pears - that many things got messed up. I redid the link, my bad, and thanks to your kindness.

      Lol, the black thumb of death. Now, now, you can do this. Give the cacti family a try? They are very gorgeous when they flower, and they forgive many, many things even black thumbs. ;o)

  2. Liking the smell of skunks is a little unusual! lol! I'm totally with you on snuggling and knitting on a cold rainy day. Have a great week!

    1. Why thank you Dawn. I did but the jam didn't gel. It is now time to just drink it or freeze in as popcicles!

      Say, I read somewhere that people who had been sprayed by a skunk were likely to think skunks really did smell good. Since it happened to me, I'm wondering if there is research somewhere about it. Dr. Google may know. hmmmmm ;o)
