  2. I will never stop reading. At 6 am I am giving the cats their breakfast (and Batty his first medication of the day). 10 books is way too little - by my greedy standards anyway.
    I often go eight hours or more without using my phone.

    1. Elephant's Child: Same here with reading. So you're an early bird. 10 books is not enough, nope. I also go without my phone for hours, even days.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  3. Ooh some of these are kinda deep. Reading is probably the one thing I won't stop. I've been doing that as long as I can remember.

  4. 1. I hope to never stop breathing but I don't think I'll succeed at that ambition.
    2. Yesterday I regret nothing.
    3. Every morning I get out of bed, drink coffee, and turn on the TV.
    4. Curse? Fuck yeah.
    5. What five things would I do? Oh honey. Can't say that in a public forum.
    6. What am I doing at 6:00 a.m.? See my answer to #3. I'm a morning person.
    7. I will at least chuckle 7 times per day, yes. That's what LOLs and memes are for!
    8. Oh yes I have. I'm not a phone addict.
    9. Did I think the world was my oyster at 9 years old? I most certainly did not. I've never been that naive.
    10. Only 10 books? Too few!

    1. 2 - I like to think the same way but sadly, I can't.
      3 - I guess you watch the news?
      4 - Same here. It's just hard not to curse if you're having a bad day.
      5 - Thank you for not sharing them.
      6 - I wish I was a morning person.
      7 - Same here, sometimes it's good to have a laugh
      8 - Same here.
      9 - No?
      10 - Same here.

  5. I - I'll never stop sharing my knowledge.
    II - I regret thart I did nok make a soap yesterday - and that I did not pull enough weeds. Many of my regrets are garden-related.
    III - Put on my glasses and my clothes and eat breakfast. In this order.
    IV - No, normally I do not curse
    V - Five things ... anything? I: Make my garden look like in my head. II: Make everybody healthy. III: Make everybody value fun over money. IV: Make it only rain during the nigthtime - except when many many people really would like it to rain. V: Make a lye soap like in a story I once read (Grandma's Lye Soap), so that everybody ever having used it can speak only the truth.
    VI - Sleep!
    VII - I would like to, but normally I'm sorry to report that I do not laugh enough.
    IX - No, when I was 9, I was a timid little girl, unsure of almost everything.
    X - 10 books is way too little!

    1. ... and missing: VIII - Yes, sdefinietly yes. I think I have not used it for 8 days sometimes. It is an emergency thing only. And I do not own a SmartPhone ;)

    2. Charlotte: 1 - I'm glad of that.
      2 - I'm not a gardener so I don't know about garden-related regrets.
      3 - Sounds like a good order.
      4 - That's okay.
      5 - These are all good things. Soap that allows people to speak only the truth - I like that very much.
      6 - Same here.
      7 - That's sad to hear.
      8 - You are right not to own a smartphone, I think they create more problems than regular phones
      9 - I'm the same.
      10 - It sure is.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  6. I - What is the 1 thing you will never stop doing?
    Perming my hair.

    II - Are there 2 things you regret not doing yesterday?
    Housekeeping and...housekeeping.

    III - What 3 things you do every morning?
    Beside personal-hygiene-related stuff? Drink a glass of milk generously sprinkled with coffee, play Wordle and WordHurdle, check my mail and visit a bunch of sites like Goodreads and Twitter.

    IV - Do you curse 4 or more times per day?
    Maybe 40 haha.

    V - Given the chance to make anything happen, what 5 things would you do?
    Get someone to employ me, order a ton of books, have an extended holiday in a number of places I've never been or haven't been for a long while, hire someone to clean my whole house, and summon David Tennant 😂.

    VI - What might you be doing at 6 am?
    Are you joking? I can never get enough sleep...

    VII - Will you laugh 7 times today?
    Oh, I wish.

    VIII - Have you ever gone without using your phone for 8 or more hours?
    Absolutely. Sometime I even forgot to turn it on...

    IX - When you were 9, did you think the world was your oyster?
    I wish I did. Maybe I would have opened it by now.

    X - Do you think owning 10 books is too much or too little?
    Do you mean 10 bookshelves? 😉

    Fun game! Thanks for the questions!

    1. Roberta: 1 - I've never permed my hair so I have no idea the work that goes into that.

      2 - Who wants to do housekeeping anyway.

      3 - Don't most people sprinkled milk into their coffee instead of the other way around?

      4 - Some days, a lot of cursing is necessary.

      5 - They all sound good. I'm not much of a fan of David Tennant but he always seems like an interesting fella, someone with a lot of decent conversation in him.

      6 - So you're not an early riser, me either.

      7 - I do too.

      8 - Same here.

      9 - It's too bad we can't relive our childhood.

      10 - Absolutely.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.
