1. When and where were the best fireworks you've ever seen? Speaking of fireworks...do you know your hot buttons? The things people can say and/or do to set you off? When was the last time someone pushed one of your hot buttons?
I haven't seen fireworks in many different places, honestly. But the shows in my hometown were usually pretty wonderful. I remember one year the drought was so severe they cancelled the fireworks show and replaced it with a laser light show, that was pretty awesome.
As to my hot buttons, yes. I don't like conflict and I don't like bullies. Last time someone pushed that particular hot button was about a week ago.
2. Have you hosted any outdoor summer parties this year? Attended any? What makes for a great outdoor party?

Meh, sort of. Scout and my husband are both out of town this week on a mission trip, so it's just Sunshine and me...so we invited over a friend from church yesterday for hot dogs and s'mores. It was fun, and it was a nice relaxing evening. (I'd invited over Sunshine's best friend too, but she couldn't make it.)
3. What does freedom mean to you?
It means everything to me. I can mostly go where I want, when I want, speak to who I want, about what I want. I have it really good in a safe neighborhood surrounded by good people.

It doesn't free me from any fallout from my poor choices.
4. July is National Cell Phone Courtesy month...what annoys you most about people's cell phone habits?
Speakerphone. Nobody wants to listen to you make a dentist appointment, stop that!
5. What's your current summer anthem?
Since the boys are gone this week, Sunshine and I had a movie marathon the other day. She'd never seen Moana, or Mulan, or Trolls, and now she has. One of the songs in Moana has been stuck in my head ever since, which is awkward because I don't speak Samoan...
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I feel like I've barely seen my children this summer. First there was a day camp they wanted to be part of, then there was a week of camping (scout camp for him, church camp for her), now this mission trip, and they both have another week of church camp coming up soon.
They're loving it, and I kind of am too, because it's good for them to spread their wings and fly...but I'm missing them. :(
I especially dislike being in a quiet place like a waiting room, hearing someone's conversation. The worst is listening to a phone call from a neighboring restroom stall-yuck!! Camp is so good for kids and I'm sure yours are enjoying their summertime fun. September will be here before we know it! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteYes, agreed! I hate having to flush while someone is on the phone, that's just weird...
