Friday's Feast #196

Feast One Hundred & Ninety Six

Appetizer

When was the last time you had your hair cut/trimmed?
One month ago, I had a trim.

Soup

Name one thing you miss about being a child.
Not having any worries, being carefree. As adults, we tend to worry about way too much.

Salad

Pick one: butter, margarine, olive oil.
Olive oil..... started using olive oil about five years ago. Much better for you than butter.

Main Course

If you could learn another language, which one would you pick, and why?
Spanish, because finding a job is much easier if you are bilingual in Spanish these days. Plus my SIL is Spanish, and she teaches my nieces both English and Spanish. My brother is also fluent in Spanish. It's a little embarrasing when a 3 yr old knows more than you do.

Dessert

Finish this sentence: In 5 years I expect to be…
Post liver transplant, back to work, and doing much better in so many ways, and ALIVE!

Catching up....

The sun is starting to shine in my world again.

I have so neglected my blogs lately. Some days I just want to do nothing! Had way too many of those days lately. I'm trying (with no luck) to get someone local to take me back and forth to Atlanta several times in the next two months. They had a restructure where hubby works, and he is on straight days for the next few months. Not good timing at all. But at least they kept him, as several got the boot. If all else fails, I will put an ad in the local classifieds.

And I have almost completely stayed away from my cooking blog, because the thought of food just nauseated me. But..... I am feeling better. Still swelling again though.

Sorry I haven't been entrecarding much, and although I have done some memes, I haven't been visiting the blogs of others. But that will change now. Hubby will be off on Sat and Sun so probably won't be online much those days. Anyway, I am trying to catch up on everything, even bills.... and none of it is easy. But trying is my first step. Laters, Sandy

David's Cookies are SO good.
