So Much to Say
Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!1) The lyrics refer to a baby's "one year of crying." When was the last time you cried ... felt weepy ... or at least teared up? Yesterday, after hearing of a friends loss.
2) Let's lighten it up a little. When was the last time you laughed really hard? Yesterday, while playing with my kids.

3) Do you have "so much to say" that hasn't been said yet? Tell us if you owe someone a phone call, note, email or text. There are many times where I have so much to say but keep it inside so I don't hurt anyone's feelings or cause more problems.
4) Earlier this summer, Dave took a bike ride before a show and his tire blew out. He didn't have a cell phone with him and was afraid of missing that night's performance. Fortunately two fans -- driving to see Dave Matthews Band in concert -- recognized him by the side of the road and gave him a ride to the show. Share a recent act of kindness you either did, or received.
We had a lot of food leftover after a party I helped plan so we donated it to the local God's Kitchen.
5) Before he hit it big, Dave Matthews was a bartender. What job did you have right before the one you have now? I worked as a secretary at Spectrum Community Services.
6) The Dave Matthews Band recorded an album live at the Red Rocks Amphitheater, in the mountains near Denver. Is there a trip to the mountains in your future? Probably not.
7) Do you suffer from hay fever or allergies? No.
8) What's in your pocket right now? I don't have pockets.

9) American Express promotes "Small Business Saturday," and encourages us to shop at local, independent retailers. Is there a shop, boutique or restaurant in your town that you're particularly fond of? It's not a shop or boutique but I love getting all of my produce at Paulson's. It's a family owned farm just outside of town. They have a very nice selection and I'm never disappointed in the quality of their food or their prices.
It's so great that you donated that food! Our local food pantry reports that, during the summer, people tend to forget about the problem of hunger. Everyone is generous between Thanksgiving and Christmas, but then as the weather gets better it's not top of mind any more. So I bet your thoughtfulness was *REALLY* appreciated!
