You’ve got JJ posting today. As you know, The Boss is on stress-rest (she’s not looking too good, poor thing).
Yes, I confess, Rey’s post re “favs” got me thinking . . . why not share things we dislike and like, our current pet peeves and pleasures? It was a great exercise; it had us thinking (focusing) really hard.
Here you have them, my friends, the Triple Threat Investigation Agency trio’s bugbears and blisses . . .
Peeves
JJ:
♦ bombastic, verbose persons who love the sound of their own voices . . . blab a lot, but say little ♦ people (businesses) so desirous of profit and power that critical concerns—like climate change—are scoffed at and shelved ♦ abusers of all kinds
Rey:
♦ whiners and wieners . . . folks who fret and complain, but won’t do anything to change their circumstances ♦ people who don’t/won’t listen, be it friends or family, politicians or superstars ♦ creamed corn—someone served it the other day and, gawd, I nearly gagged (my mom and aunts had a thing for it, so it was always at family dinners)
Linda:
♦ fakers and liars—I’ve no patience for phony people in any shape, size, or form ♦ fake news when it truly is fake news, as propagated by those who like to spin real news for their own benefit <LOL> ♦ garbage here, there and everywhere; is it really that difficult to place it in a bin?
Pleasures
JJ:
♦ volunteering time and/or money—what a truly gratifying pleasure ♦ Hawaii . . . it’s in my heart and soul ♦ animals/pets . . . and their wonderful (!) unconditional love
Rey:
♦ acting . . . still keen on it (but being a private eye is better) ♦ catching the bad guy, speaking of being a P.I.—there’s nothing like helping put a criminal behind bars ♦ pizza . . . still love it and there’s no better way to end a trying day than with a [huge] slice of heaven
Linda:
♦ relaxing and spa retreats are definite [hedonistic] pleasures ♦ hiking and walking, and being active (fitness and health are everything) ♦ reading, writing, and blogging
What about yours? Ever give thought to what floats your boat . . . and sinks it?
From the gals at the TTIA, have an amazing weekend!
Aloha!
