Good morning, Karla, and happy Friday! I'm glad to have a bit of a break coming up this weekend.

Today's Question(s):

If you are driving alone in the car:
Is the stereo on?
Always!
Music? This one, always classical.
Talk Radio? Never.
Do you sing along? Occasionally, if the piece that's playing is a choral work that I have performed in past years.
Keep the beat with the music on the steering wheel? I've been known to do this a time or two.
Turn it up really loud when a favorite song comes on? Oh, definitely!
Dance in your seat when the above mentioned happens? Um, yep, this one, too.


Extra Credit Question:
In honor of Celebration of the Senses Day

Which of the 5 senses will you use the most today?


Hmmm, well, given that I'll be working with spreadsheets all day, probably vision.

Which is your "strongest" of the 5 senses?

Oh, goodness. I'm awfully near-sighted, so it wouldn't be vision; maybe hearing.

Inquiring Minds Question:

lol Which of the below do you find yourself doing the most
Asking for permission?
Or
Asking for forgiveness?


It's ALWAYS easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission!

Bonus Question:

When was the last time you:
Swam a lap?
Oh, couple of decades, I guess.
Polished your shoes? I try to do this at least monthly; I'm about due again.
Danced around the house? I don't dance.

Just for Fun:

Is there a Shower Cap in your bathroom?

Nope.

Today's Question(s):

If you are driving alone in the car:
Is the stereo on ?
Well, it would be if it hadn't broken a while back... but I'll answer as if it is still working!
Music ?
Yes - different types according to mood at the time
Talk Radio ?
Absolutely not - can't stand it!
Do you sing along ?
Sometimes
Keep the beat with the music on the steering wheel ?
Sometimes
Turn it up really loud when a favorite song comes on ?
Absolutely!
Dance in your seat when the above mentioned happens ?
Not if I'm driving (which is most of the time)


Extra Credit Question:
In honor of Celebration of the Senses Day

Which of the 5 senses will you use the most today ?
Vision

Which is your "strongest" of the 5 senses ?
Well, I'm both short and long-sighted, somewhat deaf in one ear (including raging tinnitus), and don't have much of a sense of smell (which can be a very good thing ). So I'd have to go with sense of taste. Or maybe touch. Maybe both equally.


Inquiring Minds Question:

lol Which of the below do you find yourself doing the most
Asking for permission ?
Or
Asking for forgiveness ?
These days, neither really, but when I was young and reckless, I'd ask for forgiveness, not permission.

Bonus Question:

When was the last time you:
Swam a lap ?
Never - can't swim
Polished your shoes ?
Hmmm, can't remember, must have been some time ago
Danced around the house ?
I'm trying to do that every day... in a bid to lose weight without pain!


Just for Fun:


Is there a Shower Cap in your bathroom ?
Yup
Is it plain clear plastic or fancy smancy ?
It's posher and sturdier than the ones you get in hotels, but not fancy by any means.
Has it ever been used ?
It's used every day except when washing hair.

What day is it today - ah yes, it's Friday. Have a great day.

Today's Question(s):

If you are driving alone in the car:
Is the stereo on ?
Sometimes

Music ?
70's rock

Talk Radio ?
I would just listen to my ears ring before I would listen to talk radio.

Do you sing along ?
It is against the law for me to sing

Keep the beat with the music on the steering wheel ?
Could happen

Turn it up really loud when a favorite song comes on ?
Did that once. Almost got a speeding ticket because of it. The beat of the song started out slow and then rapidly sped up. I did not realise I was speeding up with the beat. Next thing I know I was doing 75 in a 40. Got slowed down just in time as a cop was parked around the next bend.

Dance in your seat when the above mentioned happens ?
It is also against the law for me to dance.

Extra Credit Question:
In honor of Celebration of the Senses Day

Which of the 5 senses will you use the most today ?
My lack of common sense.

Which is your "strongest" of the 5 senses ?
I can only think of 4 of the senses. So it is probably the one I can't think of.


Inquiring Minds Question:

lol Which of the below do you find yourself doing the most
Asking for permission ?
Or
Asking for forgiveness ?
Neither. I just do it and that is how it is.


Bonus Question:

When was the last time you:
Swam a lap ?
44 years ago

Polished your shoes ?
Hmmmm...Probably has been around 30 years

Danced around the house ?
I keep telling you...It is against the law for me to dance.

Just for Fun:

Is there a Shower Cap in your bathroom ?
Not at home. Once in a while I will stay at a hotel that has them in the bathrooms.

Is it plain clear plastic or fancy smancy ?
The ones in the hotels probably cost about 5 cents each. You decide if they have any chance of being fancy smancy.

Has it ever been used ?
Hmmmmm...The ones in the hotel rooms are usually sealed in a very small plastic bag. I suppose they could collect up the ones people use and reseal them.
