walkers walk… but runners fly

Random Likes and Dislikes

Oof.  Our wi fi is out!  It’s a NaBloPoMo tragedy!!!  I was in a panic until my husband told me I could use my phone as a hotspot.  I can?  I can!  How did I not know this before?

Anyway, it’s a good thing, because you wouldn’t want to miss today’s post (eye roll.) Inspired by Tammy, I did a little project.  Check out her post if you want to see what it looks like when an artist does it.  As you will see, I’m very challenged when it comes to visual arts.  But here we go!  Random things I like, and random things I don’t like.

I’ll be back tomorrow with a Day In The Life post!!!

I just wanted to check in and mention that, in spite of the fact that I’m writing cheery posts about

I’ve Changed My Mind

For years, I’ve been adamant about NOT starting Christmas festivities until after Thanksgiving.  However, lately I’ve been re-thinking that.  Today

  1. Boo wifi outage! Yay to your hubby for the hotspot save!

    Well, my favorite thing about Tammy’s list is her #1 dislike of making negative lists. I am with you 100% that we need to live in a biodome from 50 to 70. It’s not too much to ask!

    Check your email for a very awesome update to the thing that I emailed about before;-)

  2. I’d like to live in 50-70 temps, but a biodome feels icky–like would it be recirculated air? I bet a scientist would say But it’s ALL recirculated, dummy. Fair enough.

    Working on Black Friday does suck–I hope people aren’t weird and mean to you.

    Agree with most things on your lists, Jenny.

    The “Cranberry” reminded me: Yesterday, Nu said they wanted something and it sounded to me like “Cranberry Goons” and I didn’t know what they were. (It was Crab Rangoons–haha.)

  3. Well, now I know that Trader Joe’s has a cranberry clementine seltzer, and now I must look for it the next time I go!

    I am with you on the temperature range, though I could go as high as 80 and still be happy. Except it’s supposed to be 80 here today and I’m not so happy because that’s above average for November, and I don’t want to go back to wearing my summer clothes in the fall! But 80 degrees in the summer is nice…but that’s sometimes our low temp for the day here in July and August.

  4. I like this. However, I actually do not mind having a bit warmer and cooler weather personally. What I don’t like is hot with high humidity (aka FL summers) and rain during the summer. No thanks. Summers can be hot but they should not be humid or rainy. I also don’t mind cold winters, but would prefer they were not North Dakota cold. Let’s just keep it above 0 definitely and 20 preferrably, shall we?

  5. Ha ha ha! I joke that I am comfortable from 50 – 75 degrees and would like the world to accommodate that.

    Jenny, I have news for you. Today it SNOWED for the first time this year and I can admit that I got a little excited? Like, it’s going to warm up and change to rain later today, so it’s not snow forever, but I was walking the dog and telling her that it was like living in a snow globe and she doesn’t care because she’s a dog who is just happy to be out walking with her person. BUT! Maybe I don’t HATE this? Maybe it’s going to be fine.

  6. Our WiFi has been in and out. Luckily I’m not working at home.

    Yes. Narrow shoes. DST. Too hot or too cold. Being late. Peanut butter. Milk. Getting slower when I run.

  7. Thank goodness for hotspot and where were those when I parked at Irish dancing forEVAH. I love a great night’s sleep and I love crossing things off of my list. I love my writing group. Such great feedback. I love a clean house – such a rarity. I hate tiramisu. Gross. I’m not a fan of mushrooms or seafood. I wish I liked fish. Maybe I’ll find a kind of fish I like at some point. I hate celiac. I love baking. I love reading in bed, esp if it’s a good book and I can manage to stay awake. I love, love, love when all of the kids are home from college, apartments, abroad, all of it.

  8. I have zero art skills whatsoever so I feel you on the challenge of a visual representation of likes and dislikes. And my handwriting is pretty bad. If I really focus I can write nicely (sort of) but it’s best to just type things out versus write them out if others need to understand what I wrote!

    I also do not like matcha at all. But I love mushrooms! I try to order things with mushrooms when I travel because I don’t make anything with mushrooms at home since Phil doesn’t like them.

    50-70 sounds like a nice range. I could even broaden it to 40-80. It has gotten quite cold in Mn this week while I’ve been in NYC. Temps are in the 30s. I am glad I had gone through winter clothes and had snow pants all ready to go for both boys! We got a bit of snow yesterday but it will melt today prob.
