1. Have you ever jumped in rain puddles?
As a kid, yes……… a lot. As an adult……………. a few times, though I tend to ‘paddle’ rather than jump.
2. Do you or do you not use a fork to twist your spaghetti on a spoon before putting it in your mouth?
I don’t use a spoon and just twist my fork in the spaghetti, then move it quickly into my mouth. Half the fun of eating it is washing in it, which is why we never have spaghettti dishes out.
3. If you saw a reflection of your younger self in a mirror, what would you tell him/her?
DON’T MARRY THE FIRST GUY AND DON’T LIVE WITH THE SECOND!
4. How would you describe the sky without using weather related words?
Big, blue, and full of geese!
5. Are you an organ donor? Have you ever received an organ transplant?
I have signed up for it and if any f my organs are any good to somebody after I die, they are welcome.
6. Have you ever taken the punishment for someone? What happened and what was the punishment?
No. I believe in owning up to your responsibilities
7. Tell us something you’ve learned about a culture different from your own.
One year at the firm’s Christmas Party, some visitors from India were seated at the same table as I was. I was surprised they didn’t celebrate Christmas as we do and we were engaged in conversation throughout the meal.
8. Would you please tell me 5 sounds that you hear right now?
Hubby’s programme on youtube, the tapping of my fingers on the computer keyboard, the motor of the fridge freezer in the kitchen, a car gong down the road, and a dog barking somewhere.

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.
