Many times, often on primary school trips or family vacations. Shoes, chocolate, ice cream, dresses, dairy farm, perfume, whiskey, beer, wine, champagne, gin.

Oh my.... If this is about the number of times I've been engaged but never married, the answer is: an embarrassing number of times.

It took me an exceptionally long time to find him, but good things come to those who wait.

Yes, I've missed a train and a ferry. It's a sickening feeling.
9. Did you ever sleep in a bed with fleas?
Yes. Below zero, late-night rescue of an abandoned, terrified Labrador Retriever who spent a week hiding in the woods, emerging only to search passing cars. He gave me fleas - oh Lord did he give me fleas! - but he gave my sister's family years of love and devotion. He was a Good Boy. Rest in peace, Max.
10. Can you get up by yourself from lying on the floor? Do you ever lie flat on the floor? Why not?
I'm not gonna lie, it ain't as easy as it used to be but I can do it. I never intentionally lie flat on the floor because it hurts my back.
----------------------
Good questions, arr430!
1. Do you have a matching canister set? What's in them? Not canisters, but a matching set of decorative glass storage jars that I keep pasta and rice in.
2. What jewelry are you now wearing? Two rings in white gold, an aquamarine and what is probably a spinel.
3. What general worldwide zoos have you visited? Maybe a half dozen or more, all here in the states. I really liked the Memphis Zoo tropical aviary, with all the birds walking around and flying through the open exhibit area where visitors walked.
4. Did you ever tour a factory to see how things are made? What? Yes, Sunbeam bakery and a confectioner's shop.
5, How many people have you known in your life hat you would have liked to marry, with a fair chance of success? Other than the two I married? Two or three others.
6. What city/metro that you never lived in, do you know your way around in best? Metro = don't say Boston if you lived in Cambridge. I don't care for cities, so unless I've lived there I probably haven't spent much time in one.
7. Ever work the all-night shift? Yes, it's hard to adjust. And the public at night are a different breed to the public during the day.
8. Ever miss a plane, bus or train that you had a ticket/reservations for? No, thank goodness.
9. Did tou ever sleep in a bed with fleas? Not intentionally, but kids sneak in strays, and strays bring fleas and share them with the family pets, so....
10. Can you get up by yourself from lying on the floor? Yes Do you ever lie flat on the floor? Not often. Why not? There's not much I can't do lying on the bed that I would do lying on the floor.
thx
