HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE!! I’m loaded in good energy and so excited about a few new hobbies I’m interested in (thanks to a few videos I’ve watched this weekend). Never fear… my books remain my #1 hobby (but it’s hard to say books are a “hobby” when it’s almost my whole life, right? It IS my LIFE!!!) But it’s always fun to have a few things to pick and choose from on the spot. 😉
Three things:
1.) HOBBY #2: I planted my purple heirloom tomatoes!! Purple Cherokee I think? Anyway, most delicious tomatoes I’ve ever had (I get them at Aldi) and I saved the seeds out of the ones I made sandwiches with and every single one of them sprouted. And now I have 12 and have no idea how I’m going to do this, but I’m doing it. LOL!! Florida is REALLY BAD for growing tomatoes (at least for many, so I may just need 12 plants just to get a few). We’ll see… 😉 I’ll keep you updated. *ahem* Remember my “bird poop corn”? LOL!!!
2.) I watched Den of Thieves 2 Pantera, and I LOVED IT!!! Excellent, exicting, edge-of-your-seat movie and I may just have loved it even more than the first one. Also I loved listening to the French and Italian in the movie. I’m French so I had no issue understanding that, but I once spoke almost fluently Italian as a child (due to where I went to school, and lived – very Italian focused) and it was fun to realize I understood most of that, as well.
3.) I think my next mini hobby will be learning Spanish and Italian on my spare time. It would be wonderful to be fluent. Or… do I want to start a dual-purpose hobby where I’m doing cardio and learning the “Shuffle” at the same time? It looks like SO. MUCH. FUN!!!! But I get exhausted quickly doing any cardio (I have no endurance yet – but it will build if I don’t give up, right?). Yep. I have all the hobby interests, so I hope to fit in a few more. 😉

Somehow, we manage to rebuild a fragile friendship; and the more time I spend with her, the more I find myself drawn to her.
But then my fiancée decides to dig up the past, dragging Pearl’s name through the mud all over again...”
