In Dwelling

I'm Roz, and this is my relaxed space. It's about fun, good conversation and — well yes — good conversation. Pull up a well-padded armchair and help yourself to something to drink. You'll find cheese and crackers on the sideboard. What's new with you?

If you're looking for things in a more serious or spiritual vein, you can check out Exultet where I write that sort of thing.

I'm "It"

I've been tagged by Therese to describe five idiosyncracies of mine. All right, dear, if you say so.
  1. Although I am "traditionally built", in the mold of Mma Precious Ramotswe, I don't particularly have a sweet tooth. A pan of brownies is perfectly safe with me. Now a pan of lasagna -- that's another matter.

  2. I am quite extraverted, warm-mannered and sociable. However, I am not particularly gregarious -- by that I mean that I would rather be comfortable with one or two good friends at home than going from person to person at a big gathering.

  3. I like feather pillows that can be punched and molded at will. I prefer them two at a time. I often bring my own pillow with me when I travel, because those resilient foam pillows found in moderately priced hotels and many guest rooms of otherwise estimable hosts are products of the Prince of Darkness himself.

  4. I have never grown up enough to learn to like either coffee or tea. Regrettably, this leaves me with no winter beverage. (See Item #1 for a clue about how I feel towards hot cocoa.) Sometimes coffee shops serve hot cider, and I thank them. But this quirk leaves me in a dilemma -- how do I respond when someone asks me if I want to go out for coffee?

  5. I can't help seeing both sides of conflicts and controversies. This equips me to be even-tempered and a mediating influence, but it hampers me from coming down on one side of a hot issue if that's what's called for. My near and dear ones probably get tired of hearing, "Well, on the other hand . . ."
Okay. It's my turn to tag someone else to do this. I nominate everyone who reads this blog, because there are darned few of you. I know who you are, so no excuses.

      Mother of several, grandmother of a couple, wife to one very good man. My epitaph will probably read, "Well, you just never know." Life is good, but it takes unexpected turns. Good thing I like surprises.

      Julie saw hundreds of people in NYC that she's glad she doesn't know. Scott didn't notice because he was reading The Humourous Tales of E. A. Poe.
