What’s the thing you’re most scared to do? What would it take to get you to do it? I have the story. My grandpa already wrote it, and typed it. It’s his story and it’s literally history. I’m holding these 15 pages in my hands. His time in the US Army from 1944 to 1945,…

What books do you want to read? I want to read these books (pictured below)…these are my books I’ve collected since 2004 when I first started a “hobby” of going to book signings. I have many first edition signed books that I still haven’t gotten around to reading. I would always say someday I’m going…

Write about your first name: its meaning, significance, etymology, etc. Sheila, circa 1914, means heavenly. I was named Sheila Jeanne by my Mom & Dad in 1965. Famous uses of Sheila…a movie from 1973, “The Last of SHEILA” stars Raquel Welch & Dyan Cannon (a classic!), a song “Oh Sheila” from 1985 by Ready for…

What makes a good leader? I’m here for the fun! I tried to think seriously about this and lately I’m at a loss about leaders. Let’s just not go to the political side of this question. Let’s not. However, you want to talk lead singers? Let’s do it! Freddie, Axl, David Lee Roth, Joan Jett,…

While most of these trips were “straight through” due to never having real time to do them slowly, my most memorable was my last one from…

What snack would you eat right now? Hands down! My mom will be 90 tomorrow. I visited her last weekend and she saved me a few of her only batch of Christmas cookies she made last Christmas! I ate them all so fast! I would eat them again in a heartbeat. It’s that darn extra…

Come up with a crazy business idea. I can’t quite think of an exact business idea, but I have a rough business model around my favorite things, which are: cats, tea, books, health, wellness & crystals! I can work on a crazy business with these in mind. It will be an online “shop” of a…

What is your mission? After a bit of thought about what exactly is my mission, I decided to look up the overall meaning of the word. When I decided to start a blog for writing about a month ago, my head was spinning. I wasn’t exactly sure what my purpose was or where I wanted…

What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life? Having recently just said goodbye to my soon to be 90 year old mother and seeing her age after the recent passing of my Dad, I’m sad by long life. While, of course, life is beautiful, lately it seems to be turning…
