GardenGerty responded to a discussion called I found a pair of earrings that make me feel like a princess in life.

I bought a lovely new seasonal shirt off the clearance rack. It has a printed design that is done in gold and tiny red and gold beads. Pretty. And perfect to complete an outfit, matches a chiffon skirt I already have. Love it.

I am a "point and click" type of girl. Not into taking fancy pictures. I do enjoy seeing well planned shots by others, though. Evening shots look awesome, even if they are hard to stage.

We call that procrastination. You have analyzed it very well. I do not know how to get over it, other than to break your plan down into small steps and perhaps reward yourself for each step you accomplish. It is a really common human problem.

Food purchases are often disappointing. I understand that there are people called "food stylists" who set food items up to look it's best for photo shoots. They have tricks like angling the meat and things or piling it up differently so that the picture looks so much more filling and appetizing than the plate you receive.

I put very little of my private stuff up. I have a few pictures but not a lot. I use very little of Facebook. I have no pictures up on Twitter.

Okay, that makes a bit more sense.


GardenGerty commented in a discussion called Do you have a pantry? in questions & answers.

I keep powdered milk and canned milk on hand as well. I suppose I could get liquid eggs and freeze them. I am rebuilding my stores right now. I also buy toilet paper and cleaning supplies in bulk.

It was not too bad. My bus was never over full unless we were going on a class trip. Then there would be teachers and helpers on board. I tried to be light hearted and interesting. I would tell kids not to stand up and do things that would hurt them because if they did get hurt I would have to do paperwork and I hated it. It was a different approach from yelling or nagging and it amused them.

What is your ideal work situation?

Do you like a varied schedule? What hours do you prefer to work? I currently have to pick up a new schedule on a regular basis, because they do not call and tell me it is changing. I work mostly...

I have a confession to make. . .

I have never been to a Starbucks. There are reasons, or excuses, so let me explain.
The closest Starbucks is more than thirty miles from my house. I do occasionally go to a town where it is...

Is there any industry or business that is strong where you live?

I live in a small town of about 14,000 people. About twice that many in the whole county. We have a number of industries in town that are unique, one of a kind, but we also have a few that are...

If you work around sick people a lot

It will eventually catch up to you. I had to be relieved early last night, and I am off work today because of a stomach virus. Clients and staff at my workplace have been sick, some of them numerous...

When you go on a trip, or take a vacation

Do you allow enough time to rest up before you have to go back to work? In June, we went to Minnesota, came back, answered phone calls, then went to Oklahoma, then I went to work the next morning. I...
