Hello all!

I do miss living by the shore. There was something special about it for sure!

100? I have no clue.

~ If you were aboard the ISS, do you think you could hang out in your socks?
Maybe. But do you need to wear weighted shoes due to the lack of gravity?

~ Do you think if you had a raw egg in the palm of your hand and closed your fingers down on it that you can break it?
Probably, especially if it's NOT supposed to be broken.

~ What holiday was Jingle Bells written for?
Valentines Day?

~ Can you think of a living creature that the males are the ones that give birth to the young?
No idea.

~ What is the name of the United States military branch that was just created this year?
The Space Force!

~ White _Christmas_____.

I don't understand the question...

Hello from very breezy, cloudy, rainy and sometimes cool south Florida, where I live by the Intracoastal waterway that seperates my home from the Atlantic ocean. A bridge goes from by my house to the beach. Sounds like a lovely place.

~ On average, how many miles (or kilometers) up above the earth do you think the International Space Station orbits? I have no idea. I'll say lots.

~ If you were aboard the ISS, do you think you could hang out in your socks? Sure! Count me in.

~ Do you think if you had a raw egg in the palm of your hand and closed your fingers down on it that you can break it? I think so, though I've never tried it.

~ What holiday was Jingle Bells written for? I'm guessing no holiday but simply wintertime.

~ Can you think of a living creature that the males are the ones that give birth to the young? I seem tor recall that seahorses do this.

~ What is the name of the United States military branch that was just created this year? I don't know.

~ White frosting.

~ Water balloon.

~ Red-nosed reindeer.

~ A Day At The Races. One of my favorite Marx Bros. movies.

~ 3 ways you like to have that are made with potatoes: Baked with butter and sour cream; roasted baby red potatoes; American fries.

~ Wonder Years. It was a good TV series.

### We're at the top of the stretch! ### Um, okay. *haha* Not sure what this means. Sounds sort of like a horse racing term. Thanks for the fun Fill-Ins, roosty! Sorry I'm late to the party. I've been busy all day preparing for and then serving a fancy schmancy Christmas dinner for the ladies from my church circle. They left just a bit ago and this is my first chance to get online all day. Better late than never!
