I am quite certain that my incessant snoring would effectively neutralize and cancel out any sounds generated by the amphibians, reptiles, mammals and other creatures roaming around in the dark. :)

I lived on Kooaukee Island, located in Strafford New Hampshire for 10 years (1995 - 2005), and use to listen to the loons sing as they swam on Bow lake at sunrise and sunset. I recall the melodic melodies they sang and their playful nature as they disappeared under water for long periods of time without coming to the surface to breathe.. And... I still have fond memories of those good times when I could walk out my front door and encounter a deer, a fox, an eagle, a bear or if I desired, I could go fishing for lake trout or go cross country skiing on the snow covered lake in the winter and visit with friends and neighbors ice fishing and having cookouts and parties on Bow Lake as the moons reflection illuminated the midnight air and the trees swayed back and forth while the stars flickered in the still night sky, reminding me how blessed and grateful I am to be alive.

🌸 Slightly more random childhood facts in no particular order… I grew up camping, travelling, climbing and skiing, catching frogs and building forts in the woods with my siblings. We loved water balloons, Yu-Gi-Oh cards, and air soft guns. Cozy coupe cars, jelly shoes, blacksmithing, the stars and alternative rock/grunge bands were my jam. I dreamed of living on a canal/narrowboat. I think the closest things to dolls that I really enjoyed was the doll house itself and Polly Pockets and what I enjoyed equally as much as playing with my toys was organising them 😂 I think I’m a type-A gal.

I want a van life or something like that, it’s actually less about travel and more about simplicity. The less cluttered I keep my external life, the easier it is for me to think clearly. I’m more able to answer cliche but important questions. Knowing myself is something I really value and it makes me a better person to those around me. I feel much more present and at peace. 🤍

I’m probably a classic 90s kid with a love of learning by doing.

I live alone, but on the weekends (when they don't call me at work), I like to make a breakfast of things that I usually don't eat (due to lack of time), while singing whatever sounds on the playlist, then take a long shower, put on a mask for my skin and my hair, then dress something comfortable, without a bra, then I fix my apartment a bit and dance while I do it, then I put on a movie while I eat a pizza and sleep the rest of the day because I have to take the opportunity to make up the nights I didn't sleep.
My favorite way is to go to a place of natural beauty. I live near a little river, and I go there all the time alone in the early morning and observe the seasons and animals. There is a peacefulness to the natural world that is not to be found anywhere else.
Reading, going for walks, and shopping. I've hated shopping with other people ever since I used to go with my sister when I was younger. She would spend 1 hour tossing up whether to spend $15 on a pair of shoes whereas if I see something I need/ have been wanting to get, I'll just get it without hesitation. Go to the gym early in the morning, come home and have a nice long shower, shave my legs, use my favourite shower gel and get in comfy bottoms and a baggy hoodie. Drink coffee and watch tv. Perfect.
My faves are either cooking/baking or painting! I have recently rediscovered how much I love to cook and bake and I've always loved to paint. They are things that don't necessarily require a "rulebook" but a little studying can improve them a ton!
Reading. Video games. Getting high, blasting music and deep cleaning the house.
Since having my kids, it’s usually a toss-up between sleeping or taking a nice long hot bath/shower, or taking a bath of boiling water.
In a tent somewhere in the woods with a fire going, heating up a big kettle of tea to sip all day and night. With my boyfriend who tends to the fire and pours tea, while I read a book out loud to him. And at night, I go catch some frogs by the lake because I just love frogs.
Being out and about with my friends. I'm fairly extroverted and outgoing, and I feel like a day spent indoors isn't a good use of my time. Go to the diner for a greasy breakfast and then watch a movie at like 9:00 in the morning. Normally movies are an evening thing that we have to make time for, so doing it in the middle of a weekday morning feels so damn decadent.
Make coffee before walking the dog, so I can take a thermos of it with me and go for a long stroll. Then curl up with him on the couch and play some games. There are some parts of this that are dependent on other factors. Is it a friday and I'll have the rest of the weekend off? Head start on resting. Gonna sleep a whole lot and have more energy by Sunday.
Is it a Monday and I rested all weekend? Maybe I'll go to a park or a zoo. Spend time with my kids. Use that time and energy for experiences worth having.

I have two pit bulls. And they are absolutely the sweetest. And I really want a teacup Chihuahua. My husband is really thinking about getting one. I might wait a little bit though. One of my pitbulls likes to play with birds and frogs so I'm sure that he will be good with the little puppy. The other Pit Bull is a mama. I'm pretty sure that she would probably try to take care of the baby like it is hers. But I can definitely relate to you when you say that you feel really good about you're puppy looking at you as if you were absolutely the world and are the world. Mine look at us the same as well. We also have this little Chihuahua but it is my husband's grandmother's Chihuahua and he for sure looks at me like I'm the world. He can be a little mean but he's very protective and just doesn't like a lot of people. But honestly if I can get a girl Chihuahua he will be completely fine with that. He's not much of a fan of boys. It definitely feels good to feel the world to anything.

️️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️she had MISSED it so terribly. the smell of nan cooking, and that chicken and ham pie, those delectable bacon sandwiches, and the absolutely-to-die-for homemade strawberry ice cream. she missed doing the picking for it, scouring through the garden with the gnomes hiding about. it made her heart melt just ( THINKING ) about it!! being home for CHRISTMAS ──── finally ──── was more than she could ever dream of.
️️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️spending time with her grandmère in france was lovely, no doubt, but for merlins sake, she had never realized how much she had missed the always perfect pranks of fred, the arguments between lily x. james x. albus, the careful decoration of molly, and albeit she was not completely sure it was ( REQUITED ), lucy and her BURSTS of... profane language during breakfast, lunch, &. DINNER! she loved luce. of course she did, with her whole being. more than she loved any delectable nan snack, as OUTRAGEOUS as that sounded. lucy was carefree, full of life and the bravery that domi so wished she had.
️️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️’ LUCY?! ' she calls out. domi knew it was the right thing to do ── ── just RIP the bandaid off, and sometimes just KNOWING is all you need!! domi gave herself words of positivity, and she had already done her breathing exercises and meditations 10 mins. previously. merlin, they didn’t seem to be working. ' lucy! ' she called out again, looking in each room with everyone tucked in carefully and cozily. perhaps it was TOO early. domi walks back into THEIR room, and sure as godric gryffindor, there she is. ' lucy! ' a jovial smile presses upon her lips, like a smile that was meant just for lucy. something sacred, the one thing she felt like she could GIVE to her. it smelled like hidden chocolate frogs and bertie botts that were not allowed to be eaten before breakfast, quite delicious.
️️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️RIPPING THE BANDAID OFF. ' are you mad at me?! ' she just HAD to ask. it wasn’t like she NEEDED to know the answer, she already did. but she had to ask. if anything about lucy weasley was true, it was she was NOT the best of liars. and that came in handy. ' don’t lie, i KNOW you are. i can feel it. ' she could. ' it makes me nervous when you’re quiet. ' anxious, anxious, anxious!
️ ️ ️ ️
️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️' i think i KNOW
️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️️ ️ ️ ️WHY you’re mad, ️ ️ ️ ️ ️ ️ ️ ️ TOO . . . '

Can i just say that all of the questions you sent me are quite serious and thought-provoking, whereas the answers on your page make you out to be as mad as a box of frogs but with twice the energy (not a criticism, I love that about you :-) ).

I think mostly what I have learnt about myself from past relationships is that I shouldn't make any judgements or have any pre-conceived ideas about people based on the flimsiest of evidence. My "type" is not based on looks, height, age, education or anything like that, and it isn't even based on people having similar interests or experiences to me. Quite the opposite. The people I seem to like best are the ones who are complete polar opposites to me. It's the differences that make things interesting, not the similarities. I have therefore learnt to be much more open minded and accepting and embracing of other people, just as long as underneath everything they are basically just kind.
