LOOKING FORWARD TO FEBRUARY
This week I thought I'd answer more questions about myself.

- What was the last movie you went to? What did you think? I went to see the latest "Spiderman" and it was pretty great. I liked the idea behind the different dimensions.
- What did you want to be when you were small? I'm still small, lol. No but in all seriousness. I wanted to be spiritual leader or a teacher, which I eventually taught for three years.
- If you could choose to do anything for a day, what would it be? I would probably go to the Olympics, especially the Winter Olympics. I enjoy watching the figure skating and skiing.
- What two radio stations do you listen to in the car the most? I listen to KDWB (new pop, hip hop, rock, and some other types) and the classical station. My car finally has a radio that works after three years so I enjoy it (minus the commercials, self promotions and pledge drives)
Went to Whole Foods grocery for scones and brownies - Which would you rather do: wash dishes, mow the lawn, clean the bathroom, or vacuum the house? Wash the dishes. When I was a kid, I used to imagine I was a character from Miss Piggle Wiggle and I would try to see how well I could do the dishes because Miss Piggle Wiggle taught important lessons on how to trick your mind into doing things you didn't want to.
- If you could hire someone to help you, would it be with cleaning, cooking, or yard work? I'd hire Marie Kondo to help me clean and organize my home. I do a bit of hoarding and need some help.

Reading:
I remember reading Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle! As a grownup, I can see that her ideas are actually a powerful psychological technique called reframing. It's a very effective way to change the way you look at things.
ReplyDeleteAnd 99 Percent Mine looks fun, too!
Thanks for sharing a little about yourself.
Yes, reframing can do wonders.
DeleteAlthough heartbroken and furious over the ice skating issue, I've really enjoyed watching as much of the Olympics as I could, and will really miss them.
ReplyDeleteYes, besides the drugs and controversy. it was quite interesting.
DeleteI wish I could remember which of my elementary school teachers read Mrs.Pigglewiggle to our class. We loved it although it was so didactic.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Love that word, didactic
DeleteAre we talking vacuuming under everything or a quick whizz around the bits you can see? On balance, I would still choose vacuuming as the machine does most of the work for you :D
ReplyDeleteI love your photos, they are so beautiful - especially your little boy!
Vacuuming under everything lol, who does that? (he he)
DeleteIt was interesting to get to know you a little better!
ReplyDeleteThe Mrs. Piggle Wiggle books are great. I loved them as a child and still love them as an adult.
KDWB brought back memories. I used to listen to that station when we lived in the area.
I hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather today!
if I could hire someone I would go with a cleaning service. I hate cleaning.
ReplyDeleteI love the Winter Olympics too! And I would definitely hire someone to help with house cleaning.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely hire someone to do the cleaning too. I don't mind cleaning but I love someone to come in and do a deep clean once a month.
ReplyDeleteYour son was adorable in that picture!
Jennifer Aniston plays a role in a movie as a cleaning woman, it's quite humbling.
DeleteI loved Mrs Piggle Wiggle as a child and bought hard covers as an adult. In addition to the great lessons, the illustrations are very cute.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, makes me want to open a book cover right now.
