Shortie

I was never a fan of going to the dentist. When I was younger, I had a dentist that was really good and he used to do all he could to make my visits better and make me less worried and scared. Unfortunately, the dentist I had left and I ended up with another who was not as understanding as the last and that brought my fear back.

If I am too hot such as in a heatwave or too cold such as during the winter when I have gotten cold and can't seem to warm up, I find that I struggle to sleep and that usually results in me passing out from being too tired. I like it when I am warm enough that I feel comfortable when it comes to sleeping.

I used to love colouring in as a kid and would often get a colouring book that I could sit for hours completing. I always loved to use pencil crayons for colouring as they wouldn't soak through the page like felt tips would and I loved how they looked when a picture was fully coloured.

I always like to get gifts and keep them as a surprise as I feel them knowing takes away the joy of giving. In some cases, my kids tend to find out what they are getting but I always try to make them believe they will not be getting something even if they are to try and keep the excitement and surprise there.

Can't believe we are almost at another New Year. Doesn't seem that long we were ringing in 2023 and now we are about to ring in 2024. I will be spending it as I always do with family, party food, a small drink and some music and fun.

I live in a town and there is for sure some areas that I would say are bad or dangerous but we tend to stay away from those areas, especially on a night. Where I live, we do tend to get a little trouble but it is not as much as some areas get. Most of us keep ourselves to ourselves as to not be aware of any problems unless it directly effects us.

Christmas is not what I would say is a religious day for me. We celebrate by getting together with the family and having fun and just enjoying the day. I do know there are many who tend to go to church and such on Christmas Eve and tend to celebrate religiously on the day.

I have always said Mum as that is what I was brought up to use but I did have friends and still do have friends who tend to call their mum 'mom' so I think it is a preference more than anything. Some even go as far as to say Ma which my daughter has done a few times.

Not going to lie, being a phoenix does sound interesting and sounds like it could be fun for a day so I would definitely want to try that out. I also feel being a leprechaun or a gnome would be quite interesting too for a day.

I usually don't tend to remember my dreams even if I dream but I have on odd occasions remembered some. I have had times where I have dreamed and I have woken wondering if it was a dream or real life, those ones are quite weird and strange.

I can't say that I have ever eaten anything like this but I do know of people that have and they seemed to like it. I just can't get behind eating something such as an insect as part of a meal, just doesn't seem right to me.

I would have to start with Cats Pros: They are dedicated to their owner They can bring comfort They are easy to take care of as they tend to do most of the care themselves, we just have to worry about treating them for fleas and worms, feeding them and ensuring they are healthy You don't have to take them on walks as they tend to do this themselves unless you choose to as an owner Cons: They can be quite expensive especially if they are fussy with the kind of food they eat It can be difficult to bathe them if needed with their fear of water unless they do not mind it Vet bills can be expensive

It is a worry that many years down the line, AI could have the potential to take over jobs that humans are now doing to earn a living and that may cause an issue when that is possible. How long it is going to take for AI to become that developed though, humans have the chance to stay ahead of AI to lower the risk of losing their jobs to AI. The government will of course use it to scaremonger and some will believe it but if you do your own research, you will realize that there is nothing to worry about at least for now.

If our family cat was still around I for sure know if she was able to gain access to some money, she would definitely buy treats and as many as she could get. She always loved treats and would always try and trick the others in the house to giving her more even if she'd had some. Our guinea pig would more than likely spend the money on treats, carrots or dandelion salad.

One of the biggest advantages I feel PC gaming has is that it can be cheaper in the long run for the best gaming experience, the only downside is you need the funds first before you can purchase the PC which will come at a price when first purchased. It is a good investment though due to the huge catalogue of games you have access to on PC.

If I have the time and I know about games being available for free for a weekend I will do my best to jump on them. In some cases you can complete the game within that weekend which saves you some money but it also helps you decide whether or not you would buy the game instead of buying it and it being something you regret. I haven't jumped on a free weekend in a while to be honest.

Still Fortnite 🙂 been swamped with work just recently coming up to the Christmas season and I haven't been gaming as much as I would do. Will admit, I am excited to get back on and start on Winterfest and play the new game modes again 🙂

I would say that my smartphone is the one gadget I use the most as I use that daily for all different kinds of reasons. Second would be my Alexa, I use that daily to play music which helps me stay motivated when working 🙂

From experience and using the same SD card for quite a few years now regularly, I have found that if you use them regularly you can get around 3 - 4 years out of them but they will wear down eventually. The good thing is they are not overly expensive to replace and it's not going to be something you will have to replace too often either.

This is the first time I am hearing of Geocaching but I will admit, I am quite curious to see what it is all about. Something I need to research now just to see what I am missing 🙂

I guess it would depend on how much your budget is and whether you could afford the Meta Quest 2. We now have the Meta Quest 3 that has released and that is quite expensive but it seems that the Meta Quest 2 has dropped in price quite a bit making it more affordable. It all depends on what you feel you can afford.

This is a tough question as if we did gain access to something like this, there would be so much that we could play or use it for. I wonder what Fortnite would be like on it if were ever gained access to that?

I just mentioned this in another thread but it is still relevant for this question as well. I would like to see a game or some kind of feature that uses VR in which people who need to learn skills can do so without any issues. I feel this would help so many in the long run but would also help the job world too.

As of yet, I have not played any VR games but I am looking to getting my kids one to share for Christmas so will get the chance to try it out when they get it as their gift. I would think that VR is definitely more immersive than gaming without VR.

I never thought about using VR to teach people skills that they could use out the in the real world for jobs and such but I can see where that would work and would be ideal. Right now, so many seem to struggle when it comes to the skill they need for a job they wish to work in, having something like this could make it easier for those that need to, can gain the skills needed.
