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.
  If you’d like to participate, visit An Island Life answer the question and then post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

Summer is almost over and fall is upon us, which brings me to today’s question.

Today’s Question:

Do you do fall/spring cleaning? To what degree?

My Answer:

Yes!! Top to bottom, cleaning out closets, throwing items out, etc etc. I feel so good when I’m done and everything is sparkling clean and organized. However, can’t do it at this time…doctor’s orders.

This is a new blog hop that I found and will be participating in.  This will be the fist time!!

Are you a blogger over 40? Yeah, welcome to the club!
Please join in the fun and get to know your fellow bloggers!!

From her site:

  Why I decided to start this meme – When I read a book and come across the title, it always brings a sense of accomplishment and I think clever, interesting or I just smile with that ahh moment. So I decided to create this meme hoping it starts great conversation on each others blogs especially when we have read the same book.
Title Talk on Thursday
Title Talk on Thursday is a NEW weekly bookish meme, hosted by Tea Time with Marce. A time to share opinions on how the title represented the story, while networking and adding to your Wishlist. All Genre’s of Books are Welcomed.
Comment and leave the following:
*Title
     Seven Year Switch
*Author
     Claire Cook
*Genre
     Chick Lit
*Summary of the book
     Jill has been living her present life in the past, not facing her personal issues. It takes a girl’s vacation to allow her to accept the past and start to live in the future.
*Include a Teaser sentence the Title was used in if it is NOT a SPOILER
     (borrowed from book’s jacket)  They say that every seven years you become a completely new person, but Jill isn’t sure she’s ready for the big change.
*Opinion on Title, is it a clever title, a grab your attention title, is it original, does it match the genre,etc
     I loved the title and more so the cover.
*Link to Your Review

From Lori’s site:
  It struck me recently how much time I spend on this computer every day, blogging, chatting or playing games on Facebook, emailing friends and relatives, making cards and calendars, etc. etc. etc.
  We depend on each other for book reviews, giveaways, encouragement, friendship, but how well do we really know each other?
  This week school started for my kids and I realized what that means. Think back, if you are old like me, think way back,what happens at the start of a school year.
  You renew friendships and make new ones.
  You get to know each other.
  So that is what this meme is all about, getting to know each other.
Each Thursday I will post 3 questions for you to answer that you can copy and post on your blog with your answers.
