1. The Winter Olympics kick off on Friday, February 6th...on a scale of 1-10 how excited are you? (1= eh and 10=watching every event all day every day). What's your favorite Winter Olympic sporting event?
I'd have to say a 2.
I LOVED the Olympics when I was a child. I was a gymnast and dreamed of one day going to the Olympics. I wanted to be the next Nadia Comaneci or Mary Lou Retton. I knew deep down I wasn't going but it was fun to dream about it.
For the winter Olympics, I'd have to say figure skating is my favorite event to watch. I've always wanted to learn how to do all the fancy stuff, but I've only skated maybe 5 times in my life. We didn't have anywhere local growing up to ice skate. I have skated at Rockefeller Center in NYC when I lived there. I'm not that good at it though.
I do like watching the opening ceremonies when they are good. I've been disappointed in the past. So, we'll see.
2. In other sporting news, the Superbowl (American football's championship game) will be played on Sunday, February 8th. So, tell us...what's your superpower?
I'm glad it wasn't a question about whose playing because I have no clue. I've never been a big fan of watching football on TV. I prefer to watch in it in person. I'm not a huge fan so it's not worth the money to me.
So, my superpower? I have a way with animals. Every stray that gets dropped off finds it way to my house. Most of our cats have just shown up. They find me. I currently have one outdoor cat that will not come in. He won't be trapped and we can't touch him. I've been feeding him for about 4 years now. At first it was very random. Now, he shows up every day. We bought him a heated cat house and he is loving it. I almost touched him a few days ago. He didn't hiss. He just reached out and lightly tapped my hand as if to tell me no. He is definitely taking longer than any other cat, but I'll keep trying.
3. Are you a romantic?
Yes, most definitely. Lace, flowers, music, dancing, etc. I love the old time feel of things. Maybe because I didn't live in the past times, I find it more appealing. Things just seemed simpler. Life was slower. People connected more. They didn't seem to be distracted by all the craziness in the world. They weren't glued to their phones. I love the fashions from the past. The dresses and outfits were stunning. Woman and men looked stylish, not frumpy and sloppy. The attention to details was amazing.
4. Blue cheese-yay or nay? How about feta? If you said yes to one or both, what's a dish you like that calls for one of these?
I like both, blue cheese and feta, with certain things. I tend to use them in salads...regular salad and fruit salads. I don't like blue cheese dressing though. I much prefer ranch.
There's a salad with grapes, apples, and feta cheese that I love in the summertime.
5. What's more important-doing what you love or loving what you do?
I honestly thought these were the same thing at first, but the more I thought about it I realized that there was a difference. A huge difference. If you can do what you love that's great. That would be the best option if it's possible. However, sometimes that isn't always the case. If you can't do what you love, it's important to love what you are doing. I don't think it's wise to settle and do something you don't enjoy or hate. If you do, I doubt you'll enjoy life. Let's face it, if we are unhappy, we tend to make those around us unhappy too. We need to love what we do in this life. We only get one life, and we shouldn't go through it being miserable. We should love life, love those around us, and love God.
6. My random thought~ I'm getting excited to meet my first grandchild. Only a few more weeks to go. I love this little boy so much already. it's amazing how different it feels to be a grandma. What's some Grandma advice? I'd love to hear it.
