Wonderful Wednesday and More About Myself

Hello everyone!  A very warm welcome to you all! 

I find myself bored by video games but I do like some board games.  Scrabble and Monopoly are my favourites.  I am more of a one on one person than a "party animal."  I am more at ease on a one to one basis than in large groups of people.  I tend to be kind of shy when there are lots of people around. Thanks for listening.  :)

The videos I have selected for this post are:

A Just for Laughs Gag/Juste pour Rire

Tangy Baked Chicken Wings

Vietnamese Coffee (Thirsty for)

Relaxing Colourful Fountain Light Show with Music (Budapest Margaret Island)

Loyalty - Soothing and Relaxing Music for Animals (I know this says that it is for animals, but I personally found it soothing myself, so in my view, it is for both animals and humans.  Enjoy).  :)

For the following, I am providing the link sources beneath each photo.  You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.
















Thank you all so much for visiting me here!  I always appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share.

  1. Bonjour chère amie,

    Je dois entamer le repassage et votre vidéo m'a bien fait sourire !... Il va falloir que je fasse attention !
    J'aime la petite image concernant la petite maison...
    Les petites choses de la vie sont tellement plus belles que des envies injustifiées...
    Très jolie publication...

    Gros bisous

  8. I used to enjoy party but now I am more homey person. Prefer to have few friends get together enjoying some great time.

    I love to play monopoly and scrabble too. Other than both, I also like to play Snake & Ladder and Chinese plane board.

  12. Hi Linda,

  15. Good morning, dear Linda! You and I must be clones because every time you describe yourself you describe me. I avoid modern video games but always enjoyed traditional board games like Monopoly and Scrabble. I come across as gregarious but I am rather shy and prefer one on one encounters to large gatherings.

    I am a longtime coffee lover and that Vietnamese coffee would hit the spot as I write to you in the pre-dawn darkness. When they popped open the can I could imagine that glorious aroma. Could you smell it, too? I often wondered if there is a specific species of animal that prefers rock 'n' roll music. :)

    Happy Wednesday, dear friend Linda!

  16. I love how creepy but endearing the pictures are. Thanks for sharing those videos too!

    I am similar to you. Some people might find us introverted, but I thin that's okay. I don't like large groups as well because I like drowning myself in my thoughts. I also hate large groups because I find it too stressful. Like all of my energy has been sucked out of me. I prefer a few friends to surround me.

  17. Got to wonder what's different about Vietnamese coffee. :) I do like soothing music, and humans are, in fact, animals, so it makes sense that we like that music! Wishing you a great day.

  35. I actually try staying away from video games. The odd game I've played tends to become addictive, so it's best to leave them alone.

  54. Hi Linda! Such a pleasure to meet you! I have to say that I am enjoying the relaxing sounds for animals as I type this :)

  55. The thought came zipping through several months ago that it is a wonder that casinos and/or private gaming parties have not started playing Monopoly with real money. I suppose Parker Brothers would not issue a licence for casinos to do this, but I do not recall every hearing of it being done underground (so to speak).

  56. You made me hungry with the baked chicken wings:)

    ReplyDelete
  57. By the way, I love playing scrabble too. Word Feud is my favorite:)

  59. I miss playing Monopoly with my family, so fun earning money and buying houses
