Friendly Fill-Ins Week 434

51 comments

 

Hi everyone! Time for the fill-ins. I came up with the first two sentences and my wonderful co-host, Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs came up with the second two. If you didn’t do a post for them, you can also answer in the comment section. Thank you to all who participate. Don’t forget to add your link to the hop so everyone can visit you. The link is open until Wednesday night.

1, ___________________________ is a blog I enjoyed that is no longer there.
2  I won’t ever ________________________ again.

3. I once injured myself while _________.

4. I usually get _________ hours of sleep.
My answers:
1. The Opinionated Pussycat is a blog I enjoyed that is no longer there. That was Friday’s dad’s blog and a few months after he passed, the blog disappeared. I had been going back to it to learn more about Elvira and Friday.
2  I won’t ever go to a therapist again. I went weekly for 14 years and I am still crazy, but I have accepted it.
3. I once injured myself while attempting a front walkover in a gymnastic class when I was 15. I broke my foot and still have a bump on it from how it healed. 

4. I usually get 8 hours of sleep. Falling asleep has never been a problem for me.
We are joining Feline Friday now hosted by Messymimi.
My flashback is from September 2016. Angel Joanie made a fine pirate.

  2. My therapist does therapy by fun.
    A few more sessions and she might be cured

  5. That must have been sad to see that blog be taken down,
    My Niece is a psychiatrist, LOL! I guess she does therapy sessions, too…but I don’t pester her about her work, that is private stuff…Her fiancee is an MD, general practice, I think. Maybe he refers clients to my niece, teehee!
    Broken bones don’t always heal correctly…I hope it’s not painful.

    Angle Joanie was such a good sport about dressing up. I wish I could find pirate stuff, but this year everywhere I looked were not carrying that sort of thing, or they were sold out. At least I have a stash, gathered over the years…

    1,One of my own blogs got hacked, so I shut it down along with another old one…so for anyone other than me, they are blogs that peeps enjoyed that are no longer there. (They are inactive. there are a lot of inactive blogs as well, but they are still there to see and read.)
    2 I won’t ever cross country ski again. The heavy excessive makes me wheeze too much in the cold air…and my joints are getting a bit too arthritic to do it. So I gave my skis away. They were quite dirty, LOL!!

    3. I once injured myself while running on a treadmill, I fell on the moving band and skinned my whole shin, up past my knee…I needed three antibiotics to get rid of the cellutitis/infection that settled in. I still have scars from that….2014.
    And years ago I broke a bone in my foot when I was showing a friend how my parents’ new puppy walked…I came down sideways on my foot…and so that put a caboose on the skiing we were planning to do…and yes I did ski a lot of times after that…I really miss that winter activity.

    4. I usually get 6 to 9 hours of sleep. But sometimes only 4 to 6…I am a terrible sleeper, since about age 12. I always feel that if I get 5 good hours the rest if any is a bonus!

    1. How cool that your niece is a psychiatrist. Her kind of appointments are probably shorter than my weekly 40 minute ones were because they prescribe meds and psychologists can’t. Thank you for these great answers. I am sorry about your foot though and the treadmill injury sounds awful too. XO

  6. Lovely photo of Angel Joanie. I envy so many people getting a good night’s sleep. I have never got much, maybe 2-4 hours, but since I have been having chemotherapy I get zero hours and it makes a very long night. I do have sleeping pills now but must take them for 3 days maximum every week as they are very addictive. I have enough to think about without that happening too.

    1. Thank you. 🙂 I am sorry you don’t get much sleep. You should ask your doctor if melatonin would help. I have taken it a few times when I have too much coffee and it knocks me out. XO

  7. The innocent sleep well……mama is up three times a night sometimes! You are one of the sanest women mama and we know, dear Ms E. Keep at it. We should all be as crazy as you!!

    1. I get up about 3 timnes too, but fall right back to sleep. Thank you to your mama, she is so kind. XO

  8. Yes, Angel Joanie was a most excellent pirate! Ouch to the broken foot. Ellen, your #1 Fill-In is a great idea. Remember CATachresis?
    My Fill-Ins…
    1. CATachresis is a blog I enjoyed that is no longer there. Well, it’s still there but Carolyn passed away on Christmas day 2023. Austin, her handsome black tuxedo cat went over the rainbow shortly after in January of this year. She hadn’t posted on Austin’s blog since 2018. Carolyn and Austin are missed♥ I kept up with Carolyn on her IG CrinklyOldPerson.
    2. I won’t ever eat tuna again.
    3. I once injured myself while taking one of my horses to turnout. When I slipped the halter off he turned around and kicked my thigh. Left a perfect shoe print!
    4. I usually get five hours of sleep.
    Thank you, Ellen!

    1. Thank you and thanks for these great answers. I miss Austin and his mom too. Ouch on the horse shoe print. XO

  9. I loved Gorogoro Nikoniko by Tamago. And Whisppy. Two great great faves. Still miss them.

    Well…gotta get my face washed and get dressed, trying again to get Katie to the Vet.. hate liver by the way..any liver, and…loved roller skating!
    Joanie…you were precious as always. XXXX

  10. Adorable photo of Angel Joanie.
    It’s sad to see blogs that I enjoyed disappear for whatever reason.
    I won’t ever go to a beauty salon again. I can cut my hair.
    I once injured myself when I fell and landed on my hand. It still is a little funky.
    I usually get 6 to 9 hours sleep. Sometimes, I can’t sleep and need an off switch for my brain. LOL

    1. Thank you and thanks for these great answers. I wish I could cut my own hair. Sorry about your hand. XO

  15. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sleep is fleeting here…I average about 6 to 7 hours a night but also I get up at least one time. We got our Covid /Moderna yesterday. WE both has sore arms and I had a spell of chills that kept me awake til I took Advil. Hugs Cecilia

  16. 1. I can’t think of one off the top of my head, but there are many that is no longer there.
    2 I won’t ever bar hop again. In my younger years it was fun. Didn’t get drunk, but met up with friends and bar hopped. Mostly into the music.
    3. I once injured myself while exercising. Doing sit-ups and hit my head on the floor so hard it almost knocked me out.
    4. I usually get 6 to 7 hours of sleep.

    Thank you for co-hosting the Friendly Fill-Ins.

    Have a fabulous day and weekend. Scritches to the kitties and a big hug to mom. ♥

  17. Great job on getting enough sleep! I usually say my body gave up sleep for Lent and doesn’t know when Lent is over, or even that I’m not Roman Catholic.

    Angel Joanie was always so good at posing with costumes. Thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!

  18. I’m replying to your latest comment on Dani’s blog. Did you ever check out the white chin on the black cat spatula? It looks like Friday now. Glad you enjoyed Friday’s spot this week.

  21. Cute photo. Some nights my cat Scout is restless and I wake up every time she jumps on and off the bed.

    1. Thank you. 🙂 I am not brave, I am an idiot. 🙂 Thank you to your mum for her wonderful answers. I am glad she won’t allow herself to put up with abuse in any way. She deserves to be treated like a queen. Ouch on the bicycle. I take a nap in addition to my 8 hrs. XO

  23. Chaplin: “Our Dada looked at the list of fill-ins and got to the one about ‘I once injured myself while ____’ and he kinda chuckled ruefully and said that list is far too long for him to go through …”
    Charlee: “Angel Joanie, you are also just about the best pirate we ever heard of!”
    Java Bean: “Ayyy, better than Captain Ja—”
    Charlee: “YES, BETTER THAN CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!”

  24. Dad says he still misses William of Mass Destruction. Old Cat and Daisy the Curly Cat were a joy as well, way, way back when dad first started with Orbit.

  25. I broke a bone in my foot stepping off a curb in Manistee while we were on vacation.I switched flip-flops with my son (he was still a kid) because they were hurting his feet. Unfortunately, they didn’t have much support and I slipped.

  26. We also miss so many blogs, Ellen, but it’s worst when they left the planet✨#3 OMC that must had be very painfull🙈 We don’t have an answer to what is normal…MOL…Angel Joanie was a very cute pirate😻Double Pawkisses for a Happy Monday to all of you🐾😽💞
