Hats off to you!
I've done lots of things for my kids, but I'd never dare do what you did. You were soooo brave!

In response to "Sharing"

I agree 100% with everything you said. Sadly though, we live in a pretty small house, there's no room for my children to join us, nor are their houses large enough for us. I think living as a large family is nice, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. My only concern (here in the states) is that the daughter I might live with would get tired of cooking for a group. Yes, we could cook, at times. She has a problem being on her feet for extended periods of time, I can be on my feet, but my sciatica nerve pain tends to 'act up'. It would be a challenge, that's for sure. A challenge, but not impossible.

WDC counts as reading.

I agree with you about Picoult being very formulaic. I have about 12 of her books and I too stopped reading her work because they felt the same despite the story or setting.

In response to "Cursive Handwriting "

I believe he skill of spelling is lacking as well. As you say, they have auto spell-check so they don't have to think about it.

In response to "Peace of Mind"

Worry free time ...what a concept. I like how you and your husband, dropped out of the constant interruptions life affords us. No phone, just each day the way you want to live it.

Yes, peace of mind. It's a blessing, indeed. After 40 years of running a business, that must have been so foreign to you to let go of the "noise."

Rapid communication devices such as mobile phones of today follow us everywhere. I doubt they are as easy to give up in these days.

Thank you for blogging with us this June.

In response to "Peace of Mind"

In a big scheme of things, "peace of mind" can be anything you want it to be. That said, for me, I think you've touched on something important - there's an equilibrium involved - a balance. I'm not too worried about the world, because I'm a peace with myself. What makes me at peace with myself? I'm a good person. I do the right thing. I'm not trying to get over. I'm happy with my work product and I work hard when I'm at work. I do my utmost to show respect to others. And I do my best to be thankful and grateful for the things I have. All this combined, for me, gives me peace of mind.

Anyhoo.. It's been a quick month and I want to thank you for blogging with the Bard's Hall.

In response to "Cursive Handwriting "

Hello Kåre เลียม Enga

yes I agree with you, writing by hand seems to produce different outcomes. I’m unsure why that would be but apparently there’s a scientific reason.

Re the topic of using cash. I almost feel sorry for anyone to whom I give a note to. One gets this unspoken irritation even though they no longer need to work out the change as it’s on the till.

As for the younger generation being unable to hold a conversation, I agree. It’s said that there’s never before been a time when there’s been so much interaction between people. But it’s all done by text! None of my Grandchildren will answer a call but are always happy to have a long text conversation.

In response to "Coffee Time"

I only function after coffee. I'm much better in the early afternoon.

10:30 in Costa Rica: time to go home and bring the dry clothes in and make dinner (main meal of the day). It tended to rain in the early afternoon.
10:30 in Thailand: post-exercise, figure out the day. Hot season... seek a/c.
10:30 traveling: usually check out and catch a bus or train.
10:30 Montana: take a shower (M-Th, before 10 F-S) and get out!
10:30 when I worked... you can speak to me now...

Talk to me

PROMPT May 9th

Write about language - What languages do you wish you could speak? What’s the most pleasant sounding accent? What’s the funniest word in the English language (or your native language)?

I love the sound of the Italian language. You could be reading out a shopping list or a talking about dysentery and it would sound romantic.
I’ve tried several times to learn French. I started when I was at school but if you don’t use it you lose it.

There are some great words in the English language. Old words that have stood the test of time that I still use in everyday parlance. “All that Milarky” meaning goings on or happenings. And I like gubbins too. A thing of no value, or hard to describe.
