#ThisorThatThursday Author Interview with Kaye George
/
I’d like to welcome mystery author Kaye George back to the blog for #ThisorThatThursday!
Favorite thing to do when you have free time: In the times we’re having now, nap and
binge watch Netflix are tied for first.
The thing you’ll always move to the bottom of your to do list: Cleaning the house.
Favorite snacks: Lately I’ve developed a string cheese habit. In fact, I just went and got a piece. And chocolate. Dark chocolate in any form.
Things that make you want to gag: Okra.
Favorite smell: My late husband’s pillow. He was in a home at the end and they washed every single thing before they gave it back to me. There was nothing with his smell on it. But the pillow on our bed still, after a couple years, retains something of him.
Something that makes you hold your nose: Okra
Something you’re really good at: I’ve realized recently that worrying is my super power. It’s good to know your strengths, I think.
Something you’re really bad at: Remembering things I don’t write down.
Something you wanted to be when you were a kid: A really young, kid? I used to follow the garbage truck up the alley, fascinated by their job. I thought there was something romantic about what they did, daring and brave. I thought, then, that I would love to have that job. You could see what everyone threw out. I grew out of that. But I still like to learn a lot about people and, honestly, that would be one way to do it.
Something you do that you never dreamed you’d do: I knew I never wanted to get married and have kids. I knew my life would be all dishes and laundry. I met a guy who was very convincing, and actually did get married and have kids. And it was all dishes and laundry. But with a soulmate and kids, and now grandkids. I wouldn’t trade my life for anyone’s.
Something you wish you could do: Right now? Go to any store I want to at any time, unfettered, with no worries.
Something you wish you’d never learned to do: Take precautions, wear my mask, disinfect everything, stay home. But I think we all wish that.
Favorite things to do: That’s easier to answer during a pandemic when you can’t do very much at all. I probably wouldn’t have given the same answers a few months ago. I now realize that seeing my kids and grandkids, being able to go into any store I want on a whim and browse the aisles, and regular grocery shopping are some of the things I miss the most.
Things you’d run through a fire or eat bugs to get out of doing: That’s probably the same. Sky diving. I’m afraid of heights and I think I’d be dead of a heart attack long before I hit the ground after passing out and failing to pull the ripcord.
