Our family reunion picnics, now sadly a thing of the past, were like that. We'd all meet in a public park and bring our own chairs.

Do you like to swing on a swing? When was the last time you did so?
I love it, but I get dizzy a lot more easily than I used to. The last time I was on a swing was about 20 years ago when a friend with a three-year-old came to visit.

Is there a rocking chair in your home or on your porch?
The recliner rocks, but that's Mr. Bay's chair.

Have you ever sat on a glider chair or glider bench? Example.
Yes, I like gliders.

When was the last time you blew up a balloon?
Oh, gosh. I can't remember. It's been a lo-o-o-ng time.

Are you still able to blow up a balloon?
Yes, but probably not as quickly as I used to do.

EXTRA CREDIT QUESTIONS

  • a paper tablet?
  • a sticky note (e.g. a Post-It)?
  • a scrap of paper?

    All of the above except the napkin.
It's your birthday and you may have any kind of layer cake you desire with a special filling between the layers. What flavor of cake and filling will you have?
Oooh, yeah! Bring it on! I'll have a devil's food cake with cherry filling and fudge frosting.

If you dare, tell us how many candles will be on your 2017 birthday cake.
69 *eek!*

If you don't like cake, what special dessert would you like on your birthday?
I love cake. It's gotta be cake. Hand over the cake and no one gets hurt.

BONUS QUESTIONS

Are you good about having your car serviced (oil change) when it's due?
Not really. We put so few miles on our car (2,000 something) that at our car's first service, the Subaru mechanic told us we could wait a year for the next one.


Are you a procrastinator? If so, what is something you are presently putting off?
Yes, I have a tendency to procrastinate. I am putting off hiring an attorney and making a will.


Do you have any potted plants in your home? If so, tell us about it/them.
Yes, several. I've had a dracaena Janet Craig plant for 32 years that's now taller than I am. There's a large Japanese Aralia and two jade plants on the front porch. I also have potted flowers and some herbs on the deck, a fern in the kitchen, a philodendron and a miniature palm in the living room and a succulent in the bathroom. Phew. I didn't realize I had that many potted plants!

Have you ever grown a flowering plant from seed to flowering (outdoors or indoors)?
No, I've never done that unless sprouting an avocado seed counts.



Thanks, Pam!
