Friendly Fill-Ins Week 17
- My favorite way to exercise is walking. I haven’t done much this summer because of the heat but now that it is cooling down a bit I will get back to it.
- Something I learned last week was how good I feel when I get up around 7:30-8:00. Much earlier than that and I tire quickly during the day much later and I have little energy feeling logy and dull.
- I am sentimental about nothing that I can think of.
4. Some people might find it surprising to know I have never gone back to the place
where I was born and raised and after 38 years have no desire to.

Patricia, I wish we lived near each other. I would really enjoy having a cup of tea with you. Hugs. Thanks for being a part of Friendly Fill-Ins!

Me, too! (((Annie)))
I like your wake up time!! 7:30 – 8 am is my best time too. I cannot get up an earlier unless there is an absolute necessity because I am a night owl who doesn’t usually go to bed before midnight. So that leaves me about 6 – 7 hours sleep. I mean, I CAN sleep into 10 am if I didn’t have kids – LOL – but most days I am awake by 8 am. I have never returned to my birthplace either – and I don’t really have any desire to either. I like my second hometown that we moved to when I was 10 years old much better.
When I moved here I thought it would just be for a year or two. Its been 38 years! Guess this is where I will stay. I try very hard to get to bed by midnight…not often successfully. Naps are my friends.
Hi Patricia Walking has always been my favourite exercise. I don’t “do” gyms although I have been known to join and then not go. I love the kitty snaps. They add something to this post. Thanks.
I am not much for gyms either although I did like Pilates a lot. I do love cats so there are usually pictures of them here. Glad you like them.
Great answers for the questions. Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend!
The weekend has been good. It will be hard to go back to work after four days off.
I believe you! >^.^<
Walking is the one form of exercise that I really enjoy too. I wish my knees would let me do more of it. At one time I walked at least five miles a day and it felt great! I think 7:30-8:00 is the perfect wake up time too. If I sleep in any later I feel like I missed half the day, so I lose all motivation. I think you just might be a little sentimental about a couple furkids you reside with! 🙂 I can count on less than one hand the number of times I’ve returned to the town where I was born in the past twenty years, and the last two were for funerals. I have no plans to go there again. It’s a sad little town now, and the memories I have of there are better left to rest. You have built a good and happy life where you are now, we live in the present, the rest belongs to another time.
Yeah, I am happy here and life is good. Sometimes I get the “if only I knew then what I know now” blues but not for long.
Fun to see your comments tied into the kitty cats. I’m also a walker – and love that the weather has cooled some.
I am very happy that it has been decent walking weather. I tend to get cranky when I don’t get my walk.
Cute kitty pics and cooler weather will be here soon.
The last couple of days have been very pleasant. Hallelujah!
💐
These are some very cute kitty pictures.
There are no un-cute kitties.
David and I are night owls, too, or like he likes to say, vampires. 🙂 We just work much better if we’re allowed to be up all night and sleep during the day. But, that isn’t where life has us at the moment. Because of that, I am draggy all day long no matter how long I sleep.
I can understand you having no desire to go back where you came from, especially if you left due to bad circumstances. We left SC because of family problems, only thing is, they literally came out here with us and we found new ones here. Now, I’d love nothing better than to go back to South Carolina to live, though not necessarily to live in the county where I was born and raised. I want to go to the county that appears to have been the melting pot for both my ancestors and David’s – Edgefield, South Carolina.
The kitties in your post are adorable. I especially love the second one. It reminds me of a photo I took of our sweet Xerxes. 🙂
Have a wonderful, blessed weekend!
I am trying to be better about going to bed before the rest of the world is waking up but it is a struggle. I sometimes wonder how I survived all the years I worked full time.
I know what you mean! When I was younger, I was much better able to burn both ends of the candle. Not so much anymore.
I guess we’ll both get it worked out eventually. 🙂 Have a great night.
I was better able to do lots of things when I was young(er). 🙂
Me, too! Like walk upright and not falling down every time I took a step. haha
Thank you for participating in the fill-ins, you always have great answers. I like walking too when it is cooler. I get up at the same time and it works for me, I hate getting up earlier. Have a great weekend!
I am a night owl at heart so too early to rise does not make me anything but cranky.
