It's the Second Friday
of the Month Friday Five...
...and you
know what that means--yet another edition of a Random Friday Five!
So,
without further ado, let's get our random on!
Sadly, I’ve been away
from the F5 for so long that I didn’t know what that meant… but I do now! Thanks, RevGals, for the random.
1. If
a spaceship landed in your back yard, and three very cute little aliens knocked
on your door and asked you to show them around Earth, where would you take them?
(Remember, you have superpowers from last month's Second Friday Five, so
if you need to use them for transportation, feel free to do so.)
Ocean. Stand on the beach and watch the waves through a whole day and
night.
Desert.
Beware the prickly pointy plants that have adapted to survive!
Mountains. Breathe (if they do!) the thinner air and feel the cool of
tree-shade and bare sun.
City.
Know the thrust of human imagination.
2. What
is making you grumpy these days?
My body and its
achiness; my mind and its slowness to respond to my body’s desire for better
health. Wah.
3. O.K.,
so now that you got the grumps out, what is one thing today that will be
sheerly joyful for you?
It’s my day off! And I’m
preparing for a week of continuing education, so I will find a new-to-me book
to take with me and just walk around town (I love just walking around town).
4. I
am pitifully, once again, trying to grow a garden. Last year I only harvested
one cucumber. This year, I have zucchini, cucumbers and tiny tomato plants.
Everything is abloom, but the jury is out whether there will be any yield.
So, do YOU have a garden? What are you growing? If you
don't, what is your favorite fresh summertime vegetable/fruit/flower?
I do not garden. Plant
life looks at me and laughs until it dies. However, I love other
people’s gardens (which, happily, are all around my home!). I’m also fond of
their fresh herbs that they share with me.
5. If
the aforementioned aliens suddenly demanded all the contents of your closet, OR
ELSE (as in clothing, shoes, etc.) but kindly said you could keep three items,
what would they be?
This is not a fair
question—aliens would never be so cruel! Therefore, I cannot answer. (oh how
sad for me)
