Friday Fill-Ins

Thanks Janet! If you want to join in the FFI's check it out!

1. The crickets sing, but no so much in the wintertime.

2. Your life exists wherever you are.

3. I want to get far away from the inconsistencies that exist that no one is noticing.

4. To lie aimlessly in a sunny summer field without a care in the world; this was a dream.

5. But as for me I will forever be learning as I go.

6. Where I come from you say "please", "thank you", you hold the door for others, you let your elders go first, you say prayers before bed, and you have a strong work ethic.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to catching up with two friends from my last job who I have not seen in far too long, tomorrow my plans include packing myself an overnight bag and heading around the corner to take care of my niece for two days and Sunday, I want eat pancakes for breakfast with my niece, and then do something fun - any suggestions? She is two.

Apple picking? Or the children's museum if you're willing to trek into the city. We took M there and she LOVED it. There's a whole Arthur section...

They might be noticing the inconsistencies, but are choosing to ignore them, too. Have fun with your cute niece!

Unfortunately, the things that you are remembering in #6 are not important to many these days. They appear to be long forgotten. It shocks and saddens me when others stare in awe at my 9 yr old and 3 yr old sons when they say "please", "thank you", "may I", "excuse me" (at all the appropriate times) etc. because it means they are no longer exposed to these things as they should be. Makes you wonder where our civilation will be in 10, 15 or 25 years; doesn't it? (I use that term loosely, of course.)

*steps off the soap box*

Sorry about that. :) In case you couldn't tell, I loved your answers! :) lol

Happy belated Friday Fill-In! :)
