Time is flying lately. It seems like every time I turn around there is another week gone. It was just summer, now it’s fall and I know that once again, I will be surprised by how quickly the Holiday season will be here.

Yesterday, on my way home, I stopped at McDonald’s what doesn’t happen often. I wanted something to drink and something small to eat, because my stomach was growling. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and something to drink for me and saw on the menu, that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 chicken mcnuggets. I had Patches, our fast growing puppy in the car, so I thought I get her a treat as well.
You get to redesign school as we know it from the ground up. Will you do away with reading, writing, and arithmetic? What skills and knowledge will your school focus on imparting to young minds?
I chose the name “The Happy Quitter” because I started out as a smoking cessation blog. I gave up smoking after 35 years and I gave it up with ease. What I experienced was the contrary from what I had been told. I didn’t fly into a rage, I didn’t feel the need to use medication or other things to help me quit. I put my last cigarette out and walked away.
Last weeks writing challenge was fun, thank you to everyone who participated.
If you have been to a foreign country name those you have been too?
I was born in Europe, moved to the U.S. when I was 20 and started working for a company who paid me to travel the world. I have been very lucky, because I saw many places I wanted to see, but it was although a very stressful time. I packed and unpacked on an almost weekly base and I spend a lot of times in airplanes and airports. The only continent I haven’t been is Australia.
My husband turns into Mr. Football every year in fall. Every Sunday he comes down, wearing his team’s football jersey –which I bought him in a moment of weakness- and he sits down at the breakfast table, with a big smile on his face. “Let’s look who they are playing today,” and he rubs his hands like a little boy in a candy store.
A friend gave me the book “Eat, Pray, Love” and I wasn’t too thrilled about it. I had listened to a few interviews about the book and didn’t really understand what all the fuzz was about.
Last weeks “Knock, Knock writing challenge” was a big success. OK maybe not a big success when compared to other challenges, but it was a big success for my little blog. I enjoyed reading all the posts and it made me wonder how many more treasures we have hidden in our archives.
Oh Boy is it time already? Is my time up? Does that mean last year was the last year on this wonderful, crazy planet or does it mean this year is the last year of my life? Now I am all confused. Maybe I read the question wrong. Nope, it says “from the last year of your life” very confusing.
