This was a lot harder than I anticipated. Lol.

@Whimsical.Curiosity your turn. You've been MIA for a bit.

WhatThePuck 21) my kids were calling my mom "Momo" before Stephen King stole it for Doctor Sleep. 6y
Whimsical.Curiosity @WhatThePuck wheeeeeewwww alright, I'll give it a try. Sleeping 11 hours a day leaves little room for anything else lol 6y
WhatThePuck @Whimsical.Curiosity I slept a lot too. Lol. 6y

britt_brooke I‘m from Kentucky (and still consider it home though I left when I was 20), but haven‘t been to the derby either. I‘ve been to Churchill a couple of times for other races. 6y
WhatThePuck @britt_brooke I've been on Oaks day numerous times. I live 3 miles from the track most of my life. My grandparents have owner's passes from a horse they had in the 80's. 🤣 But, I've never gone to Derby. If rather do a Derby party. 6y
britt_brooke @WhatThePuck Too funny, but I completely understand. Oaks day would be fun, but derby day seems a bit too crazy for me. We went for the Breeder‘s Cup one year and that was crowded enough for me (and that‘s without the bonkers infield party). 6y
readordierachel "Momo" is what my daughter calls Elmo ? 6y
WhatThePuck @readordierachel ours is Mom- O. 6y
Kaye Good to meet you ♥️ 6y
readordierachel @WhatThePuck Ahhhhh, that makes sense 6y
Whimsical.Curiosity I love my shout out! Also so indecisive. Your crazy soccer mom shows and I love it 💕 6y
WhatThePuck @kaye 🤗🤗💗 6y
WhatThePuck @Whimsical.Curiosity If you are going to yell things at the kids on the field you should at least know the rules. My biggest pet peeve and I will tell you when you're wrong. Lol. The most common mistake "Johnny! You're offsides!" Me: "Karen, you can't be offside, singular, on a throw in" #snob 6y

monalyisha I also prefer paperbacks! I grew up in a city & now live in... a city. 😆 But I‘d love to live in the middle of nowhere! 6y
Freespirit I love Rebecca too 6y

Kimberlone I also prefer paperbacks! Cheaper and lighter! 6y
Ruthiella I envy your book journal! I wish I had been keeping one for that long. 😀 6y
rachelk “Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.” ❤️ 6y
Kaye I like Rebecca too. Do you like My Cousin Rachel as well ? Do you prefer country or city life ? Good to meet you. ♥️ 6y
LauraBeth While at the library recently, the librarian looked at my card and wanted to replace it because it‘s so old and damaged and I was like, “I can‘t have a new number - I have this one committed to memory!” And she completely understood. 😀 6y
LibrarianRyan I have 3 library cards memorized but not my current one. 6y
Well-ReadNeck @kgriffith 🙌🏼 @kaye Yes! But Jamaica Inn is probably my second favorite. Did u know that Hitchcock‘s The Birds is based on one of her short stories? @LauraBeth That‘s awesome! 6y
