Now, it's time for Five Question Friday! Pop on over to Mama M's to link up!
1. What is your favorite thing about summertime?
I love summer... mostly because I don't have to worry about snow! Here in Maryland we had about 70 inches this past winter... ugh! Summer means nice driving weather so we can visit who ever we want without worrying about it. Love it!
2. What is your ideal retirement location (if money didn't matter)?
Where wouldn't matter as long as we are close to family. My ideal retirement would be spent traveling... stateside and internationally!
3. Do you live in the same town you grew up in?
Nope... but I wish I did. Growing up I went to the same schools as my parents, had teachers that my parents had or went to school with, and hung out with kids whose parents knew mine. I miss that sense of community. My dad lives on the same block he did growing up and most of the same people are there too. I didn't appreciate much when I was younger, but it also meant that everyone looked out for you.
4. What nervous habit did you have as a child that you kicked to the curb before becoming an adult?
At first I couldn't think of anything but then it hit me! My mom used to always tell me that when I was a toddler, I would also pick my toes! I know... kinda gross but true. Apparently I hated lit and I would sit and clean in between my toes! I'm happy to say that I have kicked that habit and actually have no memory of ever doing it.
5. What is the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you while on the job?
Oh my... I cringe thinking about it! Let me start by saying, I have a highly reactive stomach which leads to many embarrassing situations. While working for a cosmetic company in a department store my stomach decided to be reactive. So, I said I had to go to the stock room but instead went to the bathroom. I came back and started helping customers. After I was done helping my customers, a coworker came over and told me I had a toilet paper tail! She was nonchalant about it, thankfully, but I was mortified!!! I am so happy she told me and I didn't walk around all night like that! Embarrassing!
I said the same thing about my retirement, I would love to just travel all over!
ReplyDeleteHow cool is it that your dad lives on the same block he did as a kid?! What a sense of stability!
