ALOHA FRIDAY #2

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that Hawaiians take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just answer my Aloha Friday question in the comments section and post your own question on your blog. Head to An Island Life and leave your link there. Don’t forget to visit the other participants.

MY QUESTION:

 

Do you like the hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping?

MY ANSWER:

Not so much, I prefer catalogs and the internet.

 

Random Tuesday #1

It's time again for some Random Thoughts!!

 

Yesterday while grocery shopping I saw my first masked shopper.  It made me wonder does she have H1N1 or was she afraid of getting it. It became obvious to me (duh) since she was walking around gathering goodies for her basket that she must be afraid of us, the other aliens walking around. It sure looked creepy. A scary thought, will we all have to wear masks someday for protection against disease? Also, will we all have to become pistol packin' Mommas again for self protection? Got ME thinking.

 

Birthdays, early in December; just glad  I don't have to host a party.  I can't even get my head wrapped around Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Also, I had the boob squeeze and this time they marked a mole with a red circled tape . Wen I got dressed  I saw a  red spot and really believed I was bleeding because she squeezed me so darn hard. I took a second look and remembered,  I have a mole, there was no blood, only a red marker. I had visions of going to the Operating Room.

The sun is out, it's bright, it's warm and I definitely need a 20 minute dose. I'm going out.

My question:

How many addresses and in what state?

My answer:

I have had 2 in Germany, 4 in Rhode Island, 1 in New Hampshire and 2 in Florida.

Dependence

Bang, bang............what was that? A shooting, an explosion; I had no clue but it was close by. I looked out the window and no one is frantically running around; the night felt calm even though it was raining or I would have gone to investigate. Finally, I saw some trucks with lifts and large lights shining up a utility pole. It must have been a transformer or some other electrical outage, but I did have lights which was odd.  It wasn't until much later I found out, to my dismay, that I had NO CABLE connection. Yup, no TV, no computer. What do I do now? It was truly amazing to find out that I was lost without that connection.  I bet most moms would be soooo happy to have peace and QUIET. Well, for me, it was much too quiet and then I got really worried because I couldn't watch my favorite show "Dancing with the Stars". Totally bummed, I went to bed; took a book. Click, click, I tried the TV remote. There it was, the snowy screen gone and I was hearing a voice. Yes, I got to watch my favorite Monday night program. All is well.

Gratitude

20 years ago today,  then President, Ronald Reagan pleaded:  "Mr. Gorbachov, open this gate. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall." He meant the Berlin Wall which was erected to divide Germany into East and West after WWII and stopped families and friends from seeing each other or even split families in half.

I lived in East Germany and remember that West Germany and the United States were off limits to me and that life was better there. So this is a day in history which affected me personally. Today I can travel freely to see everyone in Germany.  I am thankful.

Why are you grateful? Please share a day or time in your life.
