Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car).
I got this dinner high table and high stools. Only I think of since I bought it less than just table and chairs you see in stores. That table had heavy and pretty brown wood. Now, I do not know what to do with it. It is just stand there being pretty, and we all used it for everything we had on the table. Meals and crafts. Cutie?
I used dreams or fantasies in the “5 years” and not happening, so I do not want to bother to think of any again.
When I was in high school and always talked about having kids and hubby….ended not happens, I and former sweetheart had lost trust each other. I forwarded it to others and failed again. Never again!
Think I had a wonderful job and ended up three times in different jobs. Do I have a wonderful job? No. Dream job? Yes.
I always wanted to go to vacation in Europe or overseas, whatever. It’s not happening.
Family? No happen.
House? Have twice but not enough.
Vacation? Barely.
My past experiences were interesting and wild in 20 years or so.
I am so forward for next year.
For the next 3 years, I just hope that I have everything back to business. Keeping myself hush and moving forward will succeed. Sigh.
All I could remember was Civil War because I went those battlefields and tours there. It was nice view of land with whole green and trees somewhere. No mess or bad shapes. Nothing. It did feel creepy when walking around or near the areas where those army killed.
One night, I was sleep at the hotel near Vicksburg and had bad dreams about them. I awake and alert so went there to learned what is actually doing. It is just me and strange dream that I was in that battle and lost my husband in the battle. Whoa it was insane! LOL
I would say about I was in 20s because I was in high school and felt like teenagers. I hang out with my teens friends before becoming 20s. It was fun and felt so proud being kid! LOL Now I am 53 and still feel like kid in adult body. Wink! Sometimes, I felt need to be serious adult so I did mostly of time but when fun time comes then I will be like kid again. XOXO ~ DW
What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?
I always think Germany heritage but later on learned we are part of French. We are just on the border of France and Germany , and that makes sense to me because our last name is strange! Lol. Other last names from my mother’s are Welsh and Scotland. Ahh, that explains a lot! I would love to learn about vikings heritage because of us having low blood of Norway!
My cousin’s daughter thinks we are part of Indian heritage and found out we are about 1/8 blood in somewhere in the family. We told her we are not that blood family. It can be in marriage. She believed it, so let her go. Who knows.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
I was familiar with believing others. Now, I have practiced not to believe others if they said so. There is all good and bad advice. Kept it in your note that you had judged by people advice and take it right way. I believed and followed my guts. That is my advice. Smile. DW
At first, my favorite food was Hot Dog. Yes, I just say that. I like American food, Mexican food, and Mediterranean food, too. I would cook Original meals. That was just simple. Forward to eat new meals come up in. Smile.
Funny, you asked. At birth in hospital, I was born with no name! Lol. My mother wanted boys, and names were Andrew and Edward. No girl name! When the song came on the radio, my parents heard the lyrics and decided to name me after that song! JENNY REBECCA. In 40 years later, I have changed my name to JENS RIKER because of my identity due to hormones therapy. Why Jens? I found in baby name book and meaning God is gracious. Riker? You know Star Trek Next Generation, Picard’s right man. That’s him! Smile ~DW
Sometimes I am not really perfect to make any plan my goals. Many times, I think I have already planned my goals and turned not. I would look over and see what i made already for. Whatever I left and starts on it for the goal. Like for example, I have goal for shirt business in Florida and somehow people stated me that would not work or not enough people in weather season, etc. I lost it but notice from my own eyes that is possible for me to set the shirt business in Florida again. I know it is crazy goal but that is true. It was like cut then sew it together and keep going to the goals. ~ DW
When I was toddler, my mom is a dog person and offered me two dogs, who would like them as pets. My dad is nothing person. He and I sat together, and mom took a video of us with dogs. Good enough, we got upset with the dogs. Dad and I dislike dog’s heads over our faces. We like them to be lap instead of our head. Those dogs are German Shepherd and Collie. Unfortunately, mom did not keep them because of me and dad.
So mom wants me to have a pet and not know what kind of animal I would like. My teacher at school offers cat for pet. Mom got me cat, and I fall love in them. Dad seems not bothered. All cats of mine kept are outdoor cats and a lot of accidents through my growing up. One year, I decided to keep the cat inside as a house cat, and mom did not agree with me. My dad started allergic to cats. I had goldfish, too. I not sure know how to take care of them.
Well, now I am a cat person and prefer a lap dog. I like watching fish and enjoy the view.
Many times, I got some allergic from pets but have cleaned more often and less allergies. I learned to take care of it and my cats. Loved my cats!
