Friendly Fill-ins

Each Thursday Ellen of 15andmeowing and Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs, provide Friendly Fill-in questions.

Ellen came up with the first two questions and Lorianne came up with the last two questions.

If you need help, please let either Ellen or Lorianne know.

Here are this weeks questions:
1. Something I lost, and was never able to find was __________.
2. When ______________, I want to _______________.
3. _________ doesn’t bother me.
4. I don’t handle _________ very well.

Here are my answers:
1. Something I lost, and was never able to find was a set of keys that my toddler son managed to make disappear.
2. When I wake up, I want to have a hot cup of coffee.
3. Waiting for my turn doesn’t bother me. I always have a book to read and time passes pleasantly.
4. I don’t handle gridlock traffic very well. Our freeways here are clogged most of the time.

      He’s got something to say and we’d better listen. Happy weekend, Steve. 🙂

  2. Ann Thompson says:

    The cat reminds me of the one a girl at work has.
    I’m the same way with wanting a cup of coffee first thing after I get up.
    I’m horrible in heavy traffic. It makes me appreciate where I live since it’s more rural. My trips to the bigger towns are minimal because I hate driving in traffic.

      Sandee says:

      We live in a small town and there’s not much traffic, but where we shop we have to get into the traffic. 🙂

      Thank you, Miss Molly. I do love my first cup of coffee in the morning. Delicious. Happy day and weekend. 🙂

    And what better feline than a floofy one! Dad says he loves that header photo. Reminds him of his roots. As for your #2 answer, I think you and dad are soulmates on that one.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I think me and your dad agree on lots of things. That’s a good thing, Cleo. Happy day and weekend. 🙂

    foguth says:

    Meowser what a handsome cat! As per #2, Mom always has a book in her purse, so she actually seems to like waiting.
    Great answers for all… btw, our traffic is at its worst in the winter (starting now) due to SnowBirds flicking down to Florida… since covid began, some never returned, but many of them are terrible drivers.
    Purrseidon, who thanks you for hosting this blog hop.

      Sandee says:

      Oh I remember hearing about the snowbirds. Bless their hearts. Yes, I’ve heard about their terrible driving too. Happy weekend, my friend. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Yes they are and sometime cats are more fun. Not always. I love gray and white kitties too. Hugs. 🙂

    Such a cute kitty, looks like my Brody. Thank you for hosting Feline Friday and for participating in the fill-ins, great answers. I don’t know how you deal with traffic. We take backroads most of the time to avoid traffic. I wonder what happened to your keys- maybe they got flushed. 🙂 Have a nice weekend. XO

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      He does doesn’t he. We take back-roads when we can too, but we can’t always do that. I hate the traffic. Happy Friday and weekend. 🙂

    Happy feline Friday!

    Something I lost, and was never able to find was my high school diploma!.
    When __Joy Reid speaks_, I want to groan…want to, heck, I usually do!!.

    I don’t handle stress very well.

      Have a fabulous day and weekend, Paul. 🙂

  8. Nancy Chan says:

    I love your blog header. I used to have a problem with waiting but now it is no longer a problem. I know how to keep myself occupied while waiting and plus the hand phone helps a lot.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Thank you on the new headers, Nancy. Trying to be more seasonal. Phones help too, but books are my weakness. Hubby reads on his phone. 🙂

Sweet Blessings!

    I don’t remember ever losing anything I could not find, but I do remember my best friend in Savannah losing her brand new giant jar of Peanut butter. she put it away until baking day and never saw it again, not even a few years later when they sold there house and moved. all the last 3 of yours i could use them because they are true of me..

    Perhaps the reason you can’t find those keys is that your son ate them? Kids do weird things.

      No he was only a toddler, but I’ve always wondered about that set of keys. They just vanished. Yes kids do weird things. I love you Kismet. 🙂

    I wanted to surprise you to show you I joined you today, but I guess you joined me. Someone came to the door (mailman) and then I saw I didn’t finish the dishes, I let out the dog and then went for the mail and I sit down, check everything and there you were. God bless you my sista you beat me to the punch! hahahaha Well, I won’t say I’ll do it every week, but today I was home and getting bored with crocheting (I have a baby blanket to finish before Christmas for my great-granddaughter. She’s such a cutie pie. Anyway, you have a great weekend my love. See you in my dreams… and as my grand-kids say love you all the way around your heart! HUGS!

[See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
