Ew, I'm definitely not a fan of snakes. :yuck:
I've always sort of wanted a Winnebago. My grandparents used to have an RV when I was little. They went away in it once, and then let me use it as a playhouse. Of course something that seemed great when you're four might not seem as fantastic when you're an adult, lolz. :laugh:
Yes but, could be used as your Get a way
Vacation. Somewhere that doesn't have snakes, hopefully. :laugh:
When I was younger I thought Hawaii was a good place to go but since friends went.....nah, don't think I want all the bugs.
But, hearing about the Alaska Cruises that's more my liking, just dress warm.
An Alaska Cruise would be fun because it would be an adventure. :)
Yea it would.
They took a special boat to watch the whales then they got to come a little close to the glaciers, but, certain times of the year you can't do that because they're calving?
While they were there they did see an ice berg roll over.
Orcas...
That must have been something! That does sound like a really fun cruise.
They said the Sea food was top notch.
That's good, it's always nice to have yummy food on a vacation.
I'm not sure if this would count as seafood, but I used to love some good dulse when I was a kid. I wasn't even deterred when I was told it was seaweed. I'm not sure if I'd still like it nowadays, haven't had it for years.
Think I'll hold off on that and go with the real McCoy
lettuce
Iceberg...
The classic 70s lettuce. I don't think I had any other kind until the 80s, lol! :laugh:
Tried to eat a spinach salad once.....
It had not been washed well, left grit in my mouth.
Yuck! I love spinach, but not with grit on it. :yuck:
I remember ordering a cheeseburger on the beach when I was a 5 year old kid, and it tasted like there was sand in it. Surprisingly, I thought the cheeseburger was delicious that way. Kids are weird sometimes, lol.
Seen funny videos of people holding onto food at the beach and sea gulls swoop in and steal it, people are left awestruck.
lol! Those videos are funny. :laugh:
Me, my mom and my hubby were at a dairy queen parking lot a year or so ago eating ice cream, and a gull came along and plopped down on Mom's hood. We weren't sure if ice cream would make him sick or not, so we just threw out pieces of cone.
Be my luck, he'd eat then let loose on my head as he flew over
I like those hiding in boxes, someone comes to look in then
Surprise!
some hit the floor
lol! I've never been the recipient of a bird plop as of yet, I'm hoping it stays that way. :laugh:
My cat likes to play peek-a-boo, she hides under a blanket and then jumps out when you look for her. If she could yell surprise I bet she would. It's a little disconcerting because she jumps out straight up with claws extended but so far she's careful not to actually get me. :)
Had a cat that would hide under the bed, anyone walk by, she grabbed at your ankles
lol. She was letting everyone know she was there, I bet. :laugh:
I met a new kitty over by my Mom's today, a couple had the kitty I usually see out on her harness, but they had their other new kitty outside on her harness for the first time. Both very sweet cats.
Pounce...
My brother and his wife were in bed, their cat entered the room often, she felt it playing with her hair and she opened her eyes to see the cat actually walking in the door
She screamed and they both bolted up and saw a little mouse running
Needless to say, that cat ain't doing it's job.
Yikes! I would have screamed, too. I bet that cat had to take a pay cut...30% less treats.
My best friend used to have three cats, and a couple rats still tunneled up into her house. I couldn't decide if the rats were brazen or a bit dim. I guess they were brazen because the cats left them alone, and she had to get an exterminator in.
My cat is currently banned from our bedroom when we're sleeping. I woke up in the night because she was using her paw to bat at my eyeball. I'm not a fan of that game, lol. :D:
Tom &Jerry...
It's a good thing all this happens when we're young, I'd have a heart attack at this age.
My luck, I'd have a heart attack and just think it was a panic attack. :laugh:
I panic when I see blood
I used to panic when I saw blood, but I also used to almost faint.
I think I'd be OK if I don't smell it
Yes, I always used to think blood had an iron-like smell. What always bothered me the most is the sight of blood, for some reason.
I don't mind blood so much now, however when I go for blood tests, I still stare at the clock so I don't see it going in the needle.
One of the people who work taking blood told my Mom once that on his very first day there he drew blood from someone, asked them if they were doing okay, then promptly passed out! :laugh:
LOL
Most of the time it's pretty quick.
Fast...
Usually, though sometimes mine takes a bit longer because I have small veins, apparently. Then we have to do the "I can't get any from this arm, I'll switch to the other arm" dance. :laugh:
Had a young girl once trying, 3 times and a no go
Said that's it, I'm done
The doctor came in and got it on the first go
I was about to throw a fit.
I can imagine. I'd be ready to throw a fit, too. I'm probably not explaining this right or may have misremembered, but I remember an older man saying he had a younger woman who was just new not be able to get blood from his vein so she went up through his arm or something? I'm not sure if I have that right, but whatever it was, it was pretty brutal, I guess.
We used to be able go in and get blood taken between 7 and 12 Monday to Friday as long as we had a requisition sheet, but since covid we have to make an appointment now. It's too bad(though I know necessary) because you could leave it until the last minute if you liked before appointments. Good for those "Oops! Accidentally stumbled out of bed and drank a glass of milk" moments. :laugh:
Lots of people have horror stories.
When we tested to see if we had Covid, they stuck that thing up our nose
That hurt!
I never had to have a Covid test yet, but my Mom had the Covid test in her nose, and she said how much it hurt. She had the misfortune to have pneumonia during the Covid days and had to go to Outpatients for it, which was a bit of an ordeal for her and the doctors/nurses, as you can imagine. :eek:
I think nowadays it can be a throat swab, can't it?
My first Covid shot I had I felt fine afterwards, but when I got the second one I didn't feel sick or anything, I just didn't feel quite right. My best friend's hubby said he felt pretty much the same with the second one. :)
I've had pneumonia, not easy to recover from.
I'm not sure how they test for it now.....don't really care to do it again either.
My first vaccine shot gave me the side effect of getting sick, was as if I was going through Covid, second vaccine shot just about made my arm fall off, swelling and inflammation was bad....
During that I commented, this better work!
Ouchie! :sad:
Kill or cure...
Don't know what goes on in your neck of the woods (over the origins of Covid) but here
Seems, controversy and cover up
Subterfuge...
I remember in early 2020 before any lockdowns or anything, somebody asked what I thought would happen with covid-19. I shrugged and replied that I thought not much would happen with it, basically that it would be in the news a bit then gone. Methinks I may have been a little wrong on that!
Oh just a twiddle bit
disinfect
haha! :laugh:
Sanitizer...
When you look back on the lockdown, it seems pretty surreal now. I never imagined living through a lockdown in my wildest dreams. I almost feel superstitious mentioning it, like if I do we'll have another one.
YIKES!
Then put a zipper on it.
