Random Dozen


Have fun!!!

1. When was the last time you laughed until you cried?
I laugh a lot, and I do remember laughing and not being able to stop, but not what it was about. I know there were a few of us there at the time.

2. If you found $10 today, what would you do with it?
Well if it was obviously no-ones, like in the gutter out the front, I could say I would give it to a good cause, but more likely it would end up with our bills and get used when one of us needed change.

3. Do you volunteer anywhere? Absolutely, we give concerts at nursing homes and for seniors about eight times a month..... we went today, and also tomorrow and Friday this week


4. What is your favorite summertime veggie or fruit, and how do you eat it?
Mango, with other fruit and greek yoghurt

5. Is your social sphere (circle of friends) small, medium or large?
Well that is relative isn't it. We mix in different groups, tennis, church, motorhome friends, going to old-time dances etc. 

6. When was the last time you attended a family or school reunion? How did that go?
Never been to a school reunion, but attended two other reunions in Sydney around the end of June, one from a church from 1980s, and the other to do with my First Fleeter Family going back to 1788.

7. When you're feeling blue, what is the best way someone can cheer you up?
I almost never feel blue, and I get over it in an hour or two.

8. Have you taken a vacation this summer?
It is winter here in Australia, and yes we went to Sydney and had time with both my children and families and Barry's brother in the Blue Mountains.

9. What is the most unnecessary item you carry with you all the time?  ?? I have a couple of handbags, and usually start from scratch each day, so no extras there.... so have to say a bit of excess weight.

10. What is the best summer flick you have seen so far?
Only go to the movies when I'm with daughter, and we didn't go this last time.

11. Describe a perfect summer day. 
Being cool enough would be the first requirement... doesn't matter much what I do if all is well, family safe, we are in good health.

12. Please a share a favorite photo from the summer so far!
 At my daughters, late afternoon

Enjoyed my first visit to your blog, especially the picture, Alpacas I think? It would be hard for me to answer those questions but it has made me think. Looking forward to my return visit.

I enjoyed learning some new
things about you, dear Jan!
Wish I had time for new memes
but alas, I do not.
Love,
Sandy

Your answer to #9 made me laugh out loud!
