When I am nervous - my stomach flutters
The last song I listened to was - Green Eyes by Misty River. It has a haunting melody that I can’t get out of my head
My hair is - almost long enough to be donated to Locks of Love
When I was four - I broke my collarbone falling down the stairs
Last Christmas - I celebrated three times in three different places
I should be - cleaning the cottage right now but here I am, playing
When I look down I see - where my feet are going
The happiest recent event was - reading my poetry aloud to a crowd of congenial poets at an open mic night and just before that was a surprise shoreline cruise on an ocean liner and right before that was an afternoon-long motorcycle ride through the hazy autumn sunshine and before that was the trip to Oregon where my son and I camped among the redwoods. I’m happy a lot
By this time, next year - who knows? It’s the mystery that keeps me going
My current distress is - wanting to retire but having to work
I have a hard time understanding - quantum physics but it fascinates me nonetheless
If I won an award, the first person I would tell is - whichever of my children answered the phone first
I want to buy a - new winter coat, down-filled with a fur-trimmed hood
I plan on visiting - my grandchildren. My granddaughter will be seven at the end of the month
The world could do without - hatred born of fear
The most recent thing I bought myself is - a pair of Crocs
The most recent thing that someone else bought for me was - a shoreline cruise ticket
My middle name is - not about to be revealed
In the morning I - sip tea and watch the sun rise
Last night I was so tired I - fell asleep with the light on and my book still open and unread
There is this guy I know who - is teaching me to fly
If I were an animal, I would be a - cat, independent and sleek and jungle-minded
A better name for me would be - you know, I’ve never liked my name but I’ve never come up with one that fits, either
Tomorrow, I am - having homemade pea soup. The stock is simmering on the back burner now
Tonight, I am - going to sit up to read…

That coat sounds like as good one for that wicked yard duty!
My hair is a tad longer than yours but I won't get it cut to donate since it's been highlighted and they won't take any chemicals. I look horrible with short hair!
I'm coming back as a cat! Such a great life.
I thought Pauline is the prettiest name and named a doll Pauline when I ws a kid. Ruth sounds so plain and hum-drum..many call me Ruthie or Roothie as I write just to be silly and rhyme with my dad's pet name, "Roothie Toothie"!

A nice filling out of my images of you.
(The left overs of my pea soup is in the fridge to be reheated for lunch.)
A nice getting-to-know-you meme.
Looks like you had a great time camping.
