December 27th: The Saturday 9...

My Christmas Day was lovely, and I do have a couple of photos to share in my Monday Musings post.  Stay tuned!  

Until then, I am joining in on Saturday 9, and thank Crazy Sam for today's questions!  You can join in HERE!

Bye Bye Bye

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 to answer the questions; however, here are today's questions!

Saturday 9: Bye Bye Bye (2000)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

This song was chosen because it's time to say goodbye to 2025.

Thanks for participating in Saturday 9 this year.

1) In this song, a man predicts his lover will start an argument. Is there anyone in your life who can be quarrelsome?  Yes.  

2) He says he's had it, he's checking out and signing off. Can you think of a time you were glad you walked away from something?  Yes (my first marriage).

3) This week's song was performed by the band NSYNC. The group was formed in Orlando, FL, which is world-famous as home to Walt Disney World. Today, there are 12 Disney theme parks located around the globe. Have you ever visited one of these Magic Kingdoms?  I live just 35 miles from Disney World, and we had season passes for many years.  Now, I don't care about Disney or any of the theme parks.  Been there, done that, and don't see the fun in any of them anymore.  The last time I went to Disney, I came home with covid.  Bah-humbug!  If there is a crowd, you won't find me in it!!

4) They made a celebrity appearance on The Simpsons. What's your all-time favorite cartoon show?  I'm 74 years old and barely remember cartoons.  I liked the Looney Tunes...

5) In 2000, the year "Bye Bye Bye" was popular, Brad Pitt was named People's Sexiest Man Alive. Are you crushing on anyone right now?  Good heavens, no.  (If Sam Elliott knocked on my door....)

Let's look back on 2025 ...

6) What's the farthest from home you traveled in 2025?  Illinois.

7) What was the biggest purchase that you made in 2025?  Getting my roof repaired was the biggest, followed by having the driveway and steps painted.

8) What was your favorite book of 2025?  The Lost Brides Trilogy by Nora Roberts.  I enjoyed all three of the books and rediscovered author Nora Roberts!

9) What are you looking forward to most in 2026?  Learning to use my new Cricut Explore 4, which was my Christmas gift to myself.  That and just living and enjoying family and friends, including my blogging friends!  Here's to a healthy and happy 2026 for all of us!!

Peace and Hugs!

For auld lang syne, my dear,

For auld lang syne,

We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,

For auld lang syne.
