Melanie, our gracious host for SYW has asked these questions this week;
QUESTIONS
Has anyone ever tried to scam you?
Oh yes, lots of people, lots of times!
People have hacked my credit cards, used my digital info to do online shopping, and have also approached me through the usual scamming channels like emails, text messages, etc. when I was naive, I used to fall for the hard-luck stories some people used to get money out of me but now I am much wiser! ( hopefully )
What’s the best thing about parties?
If you aren’t the host, then parties are good. You just go there, eat the food, have a nice time socializing, and come home. No cooking and no cleaning are needed.
Do you listen to people’s advice if you didn’t ask for it?
I do, perhaps because I myself am in habit of delivering unsolicited advice. It’s up to me to act on the said advice or ignore it.
Why is it impossible to spell funeral without fun?
This is a tough one!
Spelling it with fun doesn’t mean people have fun at funerals. We don’t as they are somber occasions in our culture. More of a religious occasion than a social one.
GRATITUDE SECTION
How was last week for you?
Last week we were still settling down in our new home. Lots of things needed to be fixed, altered and repaired. It was a busy, busy week. But thankfully, since Saturday, we are almost done. So much so that I had a spa day on Sunday.

Thank you so much Melanie for fun questions.

Great share Sadje.
Not sure that my scamming stories would be good reading. Let’s just say that I can very well relate to your experiences.
I agree with you on parties…the host is very busy. I prefer to be a guest and help out.😊
Congratulations on your new home and kudos to managing the challenges of settling in, Sadje.

Yup, I don’t think anyone who uses digital banking products or shops online has been free of these scammers.
