A Bit of Me

SATURDAY

Good morning all !!  It is early here and the weather is supposed to be hot and humid later on.  So my plan is to get all my Saturday Computer To-Dos done and then grab my book, iced coffee and head on out to the backyard, get in the pool on my float and read.

So if you comment and it doesn’t show up quickly, you will know where I am.  What are your plans today?

We all leave our “footprint” on the world, in one way or another. We each, individually, do something or are someone that makes the world a little better just by being here. I created this weekly meme to get to know the blogging community I love just a bit better. To know what makes them tick, outside of books, that is. Each week I will post a question to be answered in the following week’s “A Bit of Me(Me)”. Check back each Saturday to get the info for next week’s post and link up with your current post right here.
Today’s glimpse:
So, let’s get started!

It also reminds me of vacations, which we are so overdue for.

Then it would be scents of different foods.  My mom and grandmother were great cooks/bakers and I would love walking into the house smelling what they had just cooked and/or prepared.  Examples like homemade pasta dough for lasagna, blueberry and apple pies.

This one will sound strange but its the smell of gas.  That brings back vivid memories of my Dad.  He owned a service station and whenever I smell the scent, I think of him.

Do you have favorite smells, why does it trigger memories?

Today’s Question:
This Weeks Question: What is one thing you are really NOT good at?
My answer:
LOL..Think many of you could answer this one for me.  One word…Computer.  I am so bad with computers.  I have trouble even after given directions between the lingo, codes, how-tos, etc., etc.  I waste so much time trying to figure things out.  I am very lucky that I have a bloggy friend who is my go-to person when it comes to computer questions.  She is always helpful and patient with me.  And who is my computer angel you ask…its Vicki from Reading At The Beach.  Thank you Vicki !!!

Yesterday I didn’t get that much reading done.  My friend Donna, a friend of 30 years….wow….that’s a long time and to see it in writing makes me feel ancient) visited and we just sat and talked for hours about everything.  We even tried to solve world problems but didn’t quite accomplish that.  But we had fun doing it.  Back to the challenge, this is how many hours I read:
Yesterday:  6 hours
Challenge to date:  28.5 hours
