What kind of music do you like?

I like mostly adult contemporary pop, country music, and a little bit of pop rock. I like some folksy tunes and maybe some oldies but mostly, I just like something with a moderate beat – nothing too fast and none too slow – and lyrics that tells a good story. The only music I don’t like is rap though I did go through a phase when I did like rap but not for long.

 What is your favorite food?

I don’t think I have a favorite food. I have quite an open mind when it comes to food as long as the food or dish is lack of things from the allium family.

 What is your favorite tipple? For those who don’t drink, what do you order when out with friends?

I had to look up what a tipple is. 😄 Oh, an alcoholic drink, I see.

I don’t have friends to go out with, you see. The only time I go out is for lunch with my co-workers but I guess I see them as my friends. Since most of my co-workers are LDS (Mormon in layman’s term), they don’t drink alcohol and strangely, some of them don’t drink coffee either. So I mostly stick with plain ol’ water with lemon.

 What relaxes you (music, reading, walking, meditation, yoga etc)

For as long as I’ve known myself, I cannot relax. I’ve tried. Unfortunately, I’m just a high-strung person who just doesn’t know how to relax. My dietitian has been recommending meditation and I have been trying to do one weekly. Though the meditation is only 5 minutes, I’m finding I can’t sit still.

Maybe I have undiagnosed ADHD along with anxiety? Or maybe the years of living with chronic mental stress has made me into a person who must spend every moment moving

Gratitude:
How often do you have some ‘Me Time’?

If I’m lucky, once a week for a few hours when mom heads into the office but those few hours can sometimes turn me into a nervous wreck because I would feel like I must get everything done in those few hours. I am thankful I got those few hours to repot my seedlings as well as get a few more 6-cell trays set up to sow some new seeds. I don’t get to do that when mom’s around.

I told mom I want to make a trip to the nursery this weekend by myself. I hope I will get to do that.
