Hello All! Not the best of weather yet around here. At 7:30 this moring it was all of 44 degrees (currently about 53) and they are only calling for a high of 68 with clouds and a chance of rain. Again. It would be so nice if those areas that need it so desparately could have it for a while! We could use some sunshine around here!

Today's Question(s):
(This one was suggested by one of our loyal posters)

Are you working full time?
yes
Part time ?
Retired?
someday, maybe....

What did you or do you do outside of cyber land? Customer service in a telecommunications office. Outside of work I enjoy reading, doing puzzles, playing with the dog, riding motorcycles and just sitting outside.

Bonus Question:


Have you ever used an outside shower ? only at the beach for rinsing sand.

Extra Credit Question:

Ladies: How often do you change purses ?
a few times a year.

Gentlemen: Do you carry a wallet ?
If so do you keep it in a back or front pocket ?

Just for Fun:
When was the last time you had a snow cone ?
been a while since I have had one of those but around here you can get a Tropical Snow in a cup with flavoring. Very similar but ice is shaved VERY fine and multiple flavors are added instead of just one.
Watermelon: Seeds or seedless ? doesn't matter as long as it is ripe and sweet.
Fess up have you ever joined in on a watermelon seed spitting contest ? no - I am not a good spitter.

Today is:
National Cherry Cobbler Day - actually the neighbor brought me over some rhubarb so I was going to try and find a recipe for rhubarb coffee cake.
NASCAR Day VVRRROOOOOOMMMMMM!
World Telecommunications Day Blah, blah, blah and a good day to you too!
Turn Beauty Inside Out Day That's sounds a little disgusting really.
Kids Helping Kids Day This is a good idea!

Hmmm....I don't know! Been a while.

Yep. both.

Whilst on honeymoon we stayed in a property on a tiny island in the Caribbean. It had an outside shower which gave views right across the sea to the nearby main island- bliss!

Today's Question(s):
(This one was suggested by one of our loyal posters)

Are you working full time?
What did you or do you do outside of cyber land?

I am scheduled to work fulltime... suppose to be at work right now... took today and tomorrow off....need to win lottery and work no more for the place I work for now....dislike job. Easy job they make it more stressful then it needs to be and took away all our fun.



Bonus Question:

Have you ever used an outside shower ?
sure thing... girl scout camp. I want to get an outdoor shower for when I do my camping weekends. this one is of course the delux model


Extra Credit Question:

Ladies: How often do you change purses ?

Only own two...so not very often.

Gentlemen: Do you carry a wallet ?
If so do you keep it in a back or front pocket ?



Just for Fun:
When was the last time you had a snow cone ?
A real snowcone and not the raspas they sure here locally.... wow... a very very long time
rapas have larger chunks of ice and rarely have a 'like snow' texture.
Watermelon: Seeds or seedless ?
mom and both agree that watermelon with seeds taste better then the seedless.
Fess up have you ever joined in on a watermelon seed spitting contest ?
sure thing... strange thing happen at our family reunions when I was younger.
