FRIDAY FIVE

Can you guess where we are: I don't know-where are we?

Word of the week:

SALAD DAYS

What does it mean? I'm with Patty on this one.

BONUS word:

FIT

what does it mean (to you)? Fit is feeling comfortable and confident in who you are. Being fit is taking care of yourself and doing the things that bring well being to your mind body and spirit.

1. It is HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION time … what was ...

The name of your high school: Mineola High School

School Mascot: Mustang

School Colors: Maroon & Gray (although they changed that by the time my kids attended to red & white)

Were you in the band, debate club, a cheerleader, play a sport, etc? I was in Concert Choir.

Did you have a graduation party? I honestly don't remember. It was most likely a small family gathering.

Wondering if I could talk anyone into posting their senior pic?

Please!!!!! Pretty Please!!!!! With a cherry on top!!!!! It would be fun!

2. When you were 18 – did you ever think about what you would be doing in your 40s and beyond? Never-40 was old and that was going to be a long time coming

Did life turn out as you thought it would? In some ways-yes.

Do you have the career you thought you would? Not what I originally had planned but I did go to school which was a basis for what I do now

Knowing what you know about your life today - if you could go back to high school, would you change your course of study? Probably not.

3. What is the first name of your best friend from high school? Do you still keep in touch with her / him? Lois. No, we attended the same 2 year college and then she moved. We kept in touch but something happened which to this day I don't know what it was She didn't come to my wedding and other than a very basic congratulations card I never heard from her again.

4. JUNE – The month is named after the Roman goddess Juno. Juno is the protecting goddess of marriage and a married couple's household, so it is considered good luck to be married in this month. Thus, why there are so many weddings in June.

Flower: Rose Birthstone: Pearl

a. Do you have any personal goals for yourself in June? I would like to get back into some kind of consistent fitness routine that I'm really struggling with at the moment.

b. Do you have any plans /special events calendared for June? June is full of birthdays. My nephew, bil, sil and DH's 60th. We were planning some type of party for DH but I've dragging my heels on helping organizing it so not sure it's going to be the scale that DD originally wanted to do.

c. Do you intend to make any particular purchases in June? Need to get someone in here about our front lawn. But I'm on my own on this one.

d. What are you looking forward to in June? Vacation time is coming.

5. SMART DIET QUIZ - True / False

a. Whole grains such as brown rice, whole-grain cereal, oatmeal and bran leave you feeling full because they take longer to digest than simple carbohydrates. T

b. Adding proteins such as chicken, fish, and egg whites to your diet can slow down your metabolism. F

c. Skipping meals can help you lose weight. F

d. Studies show that drinking 16 ounces of water can raise the metabolic rate by 30 percent for a period of 30 to 40 minutes. T

e. Drinking a 12-ounce glass of orange juice in the morning is the same as eating a whole orange. F

f. Some studies show that eating 3 daily servings of low-fat dairy, such as yogurt, milk, and hard cheeses such as Gouda, Cheddar and Monterey Jack, can help you lose weight. T

BONUS:

Getting fit in our 40s and beyond – when I think of this board and the members so many things come to mind – we are strong; we are intelligent; we are confident; we are fun; we are proud; we are nurturing; we are dedicated; we are healthy; we are giving; we are living life on our terms; and more. Each one of us is a truly sincere and unique individual.

Taking a page from Redbook Magazine - finish this statement with one word:

I LOVE MY _Rollercoaster LIFE. It does have it's ups and downs and twists and turns. But basically it's a good life. There have certainly been some bumps along the way but I am surrounded by good people who help getting over the bumps more tolerable.

Thanks Karen!
