From An Island Life:
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

I thought this would be a fun meme to participate in.  So here goes…my first time joining in.  Care to join me?  Click above.

This Week’s Questions:

What is the kindest thing anyone has done for you?
I have been blessed in this area.  There have been so many times, that family and friends, have been kind to me that it would be unfair if I just named a couple.  However, I will mention one that happened recently, which brought me to tears.  As some of you know, my youngest son is getting married  this year, which is taking place out-of-state.  A few weeks ago I received a surprise text from my future d-i-l.  When I opened it, it was a picture of her trying on wedding gowns and asking what I thought.  The fact that she thought of me in wanting to share this special day, brought me to tears.  She is going to make a beautiful bride.
What is most memorable about your high school years?
Being with friends, my 11th grade English teacher (we had to read/review a book every week), travelling abroad twice, getting my driver’s license.  However, there was an event that overshadowed my HS years, and that was the loss of my father.
Have you ever gotten up early for a “black Friday sale”?
LOL…never have..never will
Were you named after anyone?
No
Would you bungee jump, skydive or something similar?
Another LOL…since I have a fear of heights, that will never happen!
