Unwind=probably blogging
Singalong= not a lot I have a terrible non-tuneful voice
Fave food=anything cooked by someone else
Treasured possessions=photos and memories; drawings and cards made by my daughters and grandchildren.
Closest to death=I’ve blocked that one out!

How do I unwind? By turning the opposite direction from the one that wound me up.
What do I sing along to? Show tunes by Cole Porter
Favorite food? Pecan pie and anything with loads of calories. (Can’t you tell?)
Most treasured possession? Today.
Closest moment to death? When I was pronounced as only having 6 months to live by a doctor. Since I was ten years old at the time and am now 84 I guess it’s safe to ignore his diagnosis.

Okay, just because you asked (pretty boring actually):
1. How do you unwind? Depends on how I’m feeling at the time.
2. Who do you sing along to? Any tune that happens to roving around my brain at the time.
3. Favourite food? See #1
4. Most treasured possession? Life (because it’s fleeting)
5. Closest moment to death? Several. But how would I know?

Morning everyone!
Thank you one and all for playing along with my game. I had a very busy day with visitors yesterday so had little time to peep round the corner to my blog.
Back to normal today.
