What could you do less of? Pitying myself! Yes, not to indulge in self pity party. Most of things are under our control. Things beyond us are not happening to us alone and it is for everyone in this world. Let me tell you it is not an easy task. The mind fools us so…

My mom called and asked what I was doing? I told her after a long day of Yoga, basketball and window shopping my body was in a horizontal position staring at the television. Morning began with yoga, yup and every week I get introduced to muscles I did not know existed. Today it was followed…

Do you ever see wild animals? If chipmunks, squirrels and rabbits that live in my yard are considered wild, I would say, yes they are my friendly (not so friendly) neighbors and I have a love hate relationship with them. All summer I see them! One time, we did call the gas agency since we…

Do you have a favorite place you have visited? Where is it? I was watching a video about Yosemite National Park’s half dome hike. I saw not one but two youtubers mention how friendly people were on the trail encouraging each other. Half done climb is a vertical climb on a granite rock. Even though…

The mall was not crowded yesterday. My young man was really happy to be there since we have been avoiding due to crowds the past weekend. He was scanning for junk and my eyes were scanning shops that sold girly stuff. Having boys and me not a person who is into dressing up, a lot…

What is one thing you would change about yourself? Two days back I watched the movie Home Alone one. Kevin’s mom rushed back to her child from Paris taking multiple transportation and undergoing so many obstacles in her path. As soon as she reached home and hugged her son, they hear a doorbell. They were…

Are you more of a night or morning person? Written for this prompt multiple times. Always not a morning person. Anyhow woke up to this beautiful winter wonderland! I am promising myself not to feel depressed that we are now in full blown winter so sharing some beauty Mother Nature threw at us. Remembering the…

November ended with me binge watching and trying to avoid shopping. Amazon kept popping ads like, click the button here to add the product to cart. Ha, I won and Amazon lost. Nothing much to shop for cyber Monday either. I don’t need any electronic upgrades or wardrobe changes. But there is tons of upgrades…

What are your two favorite things to wear? How about gold and cotton? My earrings need to be gold. I love any artificial jewelry but lately I can just tolerate only 22k gold. I still wear artificial jewelry but I keep itching on it. Cotton dresses make me comfortable. Even my winter clothing is layered…

What technology would you be better off without, why? I need pen and notebook to take notes. I need printouts of materials I am studying. I need a desk with books, markers and folders 😃! Google classroom, google sheets, notepads 🗒️ and online material I am not a fan. Yes, I can use all of…

What’s the hardest decision you’ve ever had to make? Why? We didn’t travel this Thanksgiving week. Usually we would spend atleast one night outside our homes, drive a few hundred miles but this year we wanted to rest ourselves before and after the turkey trot. That meant the dishwasher and washing machine are running overtime…

Do you or your family make any special dishes for the holidays? Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating the holiday! Autism and rituals do not mix. I think autism has a tough time with any kind of social event as it is hard with the sensory overload of noise and lights. But over the…

As a Gen X person, I am interested in learning anything and everything. I am not too old to say, “oh I am old” and not a Gen Z or an alpha to ignore something that is happening around me. Two things the past year has interested me. One I saw physically outside in parking…

Name your top three pet peeves. Interesting prompt. I now have to start noticing my pet peeves. Once at a movie theater my younger one was asked to stop eating his nachos since he was too loud by the person sitting next to him 🤣! A pet peeve of that person? maybe? Some people say…

The weekend turned out to be more than I wanted it to be! It was hectic and fun. We have been pushing our young man to walk fast so that he can make a mile under twenty minutes. He did it this weekend. Can he repeat the fear on Thursday? Time alone can tell. My…

What are your favorite animals? Got up a bit early but it was not time to be out of bed. My mind was like a monkey jumping over things that have been done or things to be done. I really just wanted to hibernate like a bear or a chipmunk but that was not the…

Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why? We are off to a trail tomorrow. Checked the weather just now. It is not freezing nor does it have precipitation. Not to a National Park but to a state park just a hour from us. We live in the appalachian mountain ranges, so I am privileged…

What are your family’s top 3 favorite meals? Last year when the prompt turned up I just wrote that I do not know! But today I can say with confidence my husband loves beans! Fresh green beans from the market. I got up today and he told me not to get irritated and that he…

If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why? For nearly half hour I have been thinking about this prompt. I really have no clue for this answer. Wow! I am surprised at myself since I do not have any idol figures from the historical past that I am attracted to!…

Do you trust your instincts? This is the third year in a row that I am attempting on this prompt. I really do not want to trust or attempt to believe in my instincts. The reason being only instincts with negative thoughts happens. This has been my opinion. That said, two days back I told…
