Greetings. Running a little later than usual. Can be hard to get motivated when I have too much time on my hands. Oh wait, that is dirt not time on my hands. Never mind.

Sunday's Questions:

-If you were moving across town would you hire movers or put the squeeze on family and friends to help you move?

-Thinking back to a move you have made was it easy for you to get rid of things while packing?

-Have you ever made a long distance move where you loaded everything into a large truck and drove it yourself?

-When you were growing up did you ever try to get to the end of a rainbow?

-Do you ever pack a picnic lunch to take with you on an afternoon drive?

-Have you ever driven a car that had a space saver spare being used on it?

-Does anyone have a sourdough starter tucked away in the fridge? If so how long have you been using it?

-Strawberries or smoked oysters?
-Iceberg lettruce or romaine lettuce?
-$10,000 or one pound of yucky veggies?


Well I guess that is all for now. I ordered some face masks from bjh enterprises. When the box arrived all that was in it was some used questions. I think I have been had.

Sunday's Questions:

-If you were moving across town would you hire movers or put the squeeze on family and friends to help you move?
I would hire movers. Most of my friends are 70+, like me, and not up to doing that kind of heavy labor.
-Thinking back to a move you have made was it easy for you to get rid of things while packing?
Yes, I think it was fairly easy because I didn't have a lot of stuff then, and there wasn't really anything to get rid of.
-Have you ever made a long distance move where you loaded everything into a large truck and drove it yourself?
No, I've never done that.
-When you were growing up did you ever try to get to the end of a rainbow?
Ha ha, no. But when I was very young and living in the San Fernando Valley and riding in the car, I used to imagine that we were chasing the mountains in front of us and that the mountains behind us were chasing us.
-Do you ever pack a picnic lunch to take with you on an afternoon drive?
Not exactly, but for long road trips I would pack a goody bag with car-friendly snacks such as grapes, cookies and energy bars or trail mix.
-Have you ever driven a car that had a space saver spare being used on it?
Yes, if that means those tiny spares that new cars come with these days.
-Does anyone have a sourdough starter tucked away in the fridge? If so how long have you been using it?
No, I don't have any, but they're pretty easy to find.
-Strawberries or smoked oysters?
Strawberries
-Iceberg lettruce or romaine lettuce?
Romaine
-$10,000 or one pound of yucky veggies?
With $10,000 I could buy lots of non-yucky veggies and have cash left over.

If I'm getting rid of things, why am I packing them?

-Have you ever made a long distance move where you loaded everything into a large truck and drove it yourself?


-When you were growing up did you ever try to get to the end of a rainbow?
No, but I did wonder how the moon followed us home while riding in the car.

Not unless going to a picnic.

Good for one case of cheap beer for a Mutt from Alaska who may be accompanied by a moose!

Sunday's Questions:

-If you were moving across town would you hire movers or put the squeeze on family and friends to help you move? Family

-Thinking back to a move you have made was it easy for you to get rid of things while packing? When my wife and I finally moved in the same house (6 year long distance marriage, living 70 miles apart. Imagine most of you have heard that story several times by now. lol) We got everything from both houses that we wanted, or needed, and after we moved from the trailer she and her parents lived in to our own house, we advertised a "free yard sale". Everything free. First come, first served. Unlocked the door around 7:45 AM and locked up and went home about 9:15 AM with only 3 things left that went to Goodwill later.

-Have you ever made a long distance move where you loaded everything into a large truck and drove it yourself? We used a large truck and 3 cars, 2 with trailers to move where we are now, 50 miles away, 8 years ago.

-When you were growing up did you ever try to get to the end of a rainbow? Did it about years ago. Looked like IRS got to it before we did because there wasn't anything there! lol

-Do you ever pack a picnic lunch to take with you on an afternoon drive? Several times. During all this virus crap, I take my wife for a "get out of the house and get some fresh air" trip somewhere in the area. That's about the only time she gets out right now, so we take a little snack with us.

-Have you ever driven a car that had a space saver spare being used on it? Yup. Hate 'em.

-Does anyone have a sourdough starter tucked away in the fridge? If so how long have you been using it? Nope

-Strawberries or smoked oysters? Strawberries
-Iceberg lettruce or romaine lettuce? Iceberg
-$10,000 or one pound of yucky veggies? $10,000 definitely!

If it's a short move, I'd recruit family and friends.

-Thinking back to a move you have made was it easy for you to get rid of things while packing?
I didn't really have that much to get rid of at my last move, so it was easy.

Yes, once and never again.

-When you were growing up did you ever try to get to the end of a rainbow?
No

No

No, but I've ridden in a car that had a space saver spare tire being used.

No such thing here.

-Iceberg lettuce or romaine lettuce? Romaine

Sunday's Questions:

Hire movers

-Thinking back to a move you have made was it easy for you to get rid of things while packing? In my move from MD to TN, I hired an outfit called Got Junk. Sometimes when you live up a flight of stairs, you forget that a lot of things in your apartment arrived at your door via delivery men from the store, UPS or FedEx. I had what I like to call a graveyard of old desktop computers and computer-related equipment, dishes and furniture, NHL hockey sticks and other memorabilia and bags of clothes I didn't want that I could not carry down the stairs. They donate the clothes, ditch the junk or see if they can sell it and carried everything out in under an hour. In TN, I used a similar type company called Junk Bee Gone (the logo is a bee, I didn't spell it wrong). They are godsends.

-Have you ever made a long distance move where you loaded everything into a large truck and drove it yourself? No.

-When you were growing up did you ever try to get to the end of a rainbow? No

-Do you ever pack a picnic lunch to take with you on an afternoon drive? Does it count if I eat it in the car, instead of on the ground?

-Have you ever driven a car that had a space saver spare being used on it? Do you mean a donut tire? If yes, I have.

-Does anyone have a sourdough starter tucked away in the fridge? Not me. If so how long have you been using it? N/A

-Strawberries or smoked oysters? strawberries
-Iceberg lettuce or romaine lettuce? iceberg
-$10,000 or one pound of yucky veggies? Well, even if I was a huge vegetable fan I would take the $10,000, use some of it to buy a pound of vegetables and then probably buy an expensive camera and a new lens.
