Rest of 2024
Jan. 1st, 2025 07:34 am26. In the UK it’s Boxing Day – does anything special happen where you live today?
No, usually just recovering...
27. In 1904 “Peter Pan” was first staged in London – have you ever seen it on stage or in a film version?
I have never seen it live, but have seen it on TV and movies as well.
28. The American comic-book artist, writer and creative leader of the Marvel multimedia corporation (Avengers, Spider-Man, Incredible Hulk), Stan Lee was born on this day in 1922. Have you ever read any comic books (graphic novels)?
I did not as a child or young adult, but did collect the first run of the Buffy comics.
29. In 1952 the first transistorized hearing aid was offered for sale (in Elmsford NY). Have you ever had your hearing tested?
Many times. I have hearing loss, due to ear infections as a child, so have been wearing hearing aids for the past 8 years.
30. Do you own personal scales and weigh yourself often?
I do own them, but only weigh myself about once a month
31. Have you ever been on a diet, or do you just try and eat healthily? Do you plan to start a diet in the new year?
I have dieted in the past; as a teenager, I would just cut calories to lose a few pounds. I did Body for Life off and on for a few years, but mostly I try to eat a well balanced diet. No fast food, no ultra processed food, and ver little processed. We do not eat a great deal of meat (red meat only a few times a year and parkas a flavor addition to things mostly.)
No, usually just recovering...
