Hello and happy timezones, kind friends! I have greatly enjoyed your responses to my Get to Know You posts.
So, it’s time. Come sit on my porch for a spell. Tea, lemonade and refreshments will be served shortly.
Here are 3 questions! Let’s go!
Round #81:
These questions were requested by my bestie, Courtney!
- If you could start a business what would it be?
- What was your favorite vacation?
- Do you have a hobby? What is it?
Here are my answers:
- I would own an antique mall.
- The Mister and I took a cruise in 2010, and I hope we do it again, soon.
- I like to antique, paint, do nails, and interior design.
And that, my friends, is a touch of booomcha.
And now, it’s your turn! If you don’t want to participate, no problem! I’m just glad you’re here. A hello would be fantastic, though! Of course, lurkers are always heartily welcome, too. xo
Thank you so much for reading, liking, lurking, and commenting! You are important!

Happy Time zones!! 💜💜💜💜💜
1. I bet you can guess! I would have a bookshop with coffee! And there would be plenty of comfy chairs to sit in for reading or visiting. Coffee would be way cheaper than Starbucks.
2. My wife and I took a trip to New England in 2000 for our 15th anniversary. It was our first time to visit NE, and it was amazing! Oh, and it was October, so the colors!!!!! Wow!!
3. Hobbies. Reading, video games (Fallout 4, The Witcher: Wild Hunt, Assassin’s Creed Origins and Odyssey, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Outer Worlds), listening to and playing music.
Happy timezones, my friend!
Yes, that would have been my guess, for sure. I like that the coffee would be more affordable.
Oh yes, the colors are so beautiful in that region during Autumn. That sounds like a terrific trip!
Great hobbies! I like the list of games you play. The Mister likes some of those, too.
Thank you for playing and Happy Tuesday!
The antique business sounds exciting
Thank you so much. It would definitely be exciting! 💗🌺
I love antique malls and David and I had talked about having one of those businesses that you drive around the country to old estates and stuff and find really neat, unique things. What I have found in recent years is that what people call “antiques” are really just junk they saved from when they were kids.
I’ve been on a bunch of cruises…Norwegian is priced well, but the food is very low budget. Carnival is fun and has good food. MSC is pretty good all the way around. Royal Caribbean had fabulous food!
Oh, yes, I see.
Your cruises sound great! It’s neat you know so many different things about them, including which ones are the best.
Thanks for playing! Happy Friday!
A spirit’shop-Travelling-None
Cool answers! What is a spirit’s shop? I’d love to know.🌺
I like your idea of an antique mall. 🙂
Thank you. I like the idea, too. 🙂
Here are my answers: https://wp.me/p3RE1e-nUm
Thank you! I’ll be right over!
I would own a shop in a mountain town, selling items such as candles, chimes, copper and silver jewelry.
My favorite vacation was our Alaskan cruise
I like to blog, and create images using AI
💕
I love your idea of a shop in a mountain town. Lovely!
That’s awesome! I’m sure it was so much fun.
Meeee, tooooo. 💗🌺
Happy Friday!
Happy Friday, Kymber.

Thanks for hosting this fun weekly questionnaire, Kymber! 😃 Cruising is a great way to travel. You only have to unpack once, and see many places, which leads me to the answers:
1) If you could start a business what would it be?
I did start one, in 1994, and retired in 2021. It was a pet care business, mostly dog walking and cat visits initially, then transitioning to a home boarding service for dogs. We had lots of fun at the “Canine Inn”.
2) What was your favorite vacation?
A 24-day Mediterranean & Adriatic cruise in 2018, starting in Barcelona, ending in Rome. It was to celebrate our 45th anniversary.
3) Do you have a hobby? What is it?
Blogging and photography are pretty all-consuming.
Hi, Debbie! Thank you! I agree about cruising.
Canine Inn! Oh how I love that! That sounds so lovely. I would definitely had my dog cared for by you.
Wow! Wow! Wow! That sounds awesome! What a celebration!
And you do it all so well. Love your blog and photography, my friend.
Happy Friday!
Thank you for those kind words, Kymber! 💖 You’re very talented at web design and I love your blog too. 🤗
Thank you, my friend. That is so kind of you.

Here’s mine

Thank you, Di! I’ll be right over!
[…] Play along here: Boomcha.com. […]
Probably a bookstore. I hate to shop, so not much else interests me.
This is a tie. For several years on hubby’s birthday in January, all four of us would go to Universal Studios. Italy a couple years ago was pretty perfect.
Reading, building Legos, a little bit of gaming. Not sure if it counts as a hobby, but I’m at the gym 5-6 times per week.
I think a bookstore would definitely suit you, Teri.
Those vacations sound so lovely. What memories you’ve made with your family!
Those are fun hobbies and I think going to the gym that often is great!
Happy Thursday!
f you could start a business what would it be? An ice cream shop
What was your favorite vacation? On the island of Lanai in Hawaii.
Do you have a hobby? What is it? reading
An ice cream shop would be so lovely.
I’ve always wanted to go to Hawaii. That sounds so nice.
Reading is a great hobby!
Happy Thursday, John!
I love these questions today. Also, great responses! 😉
Thank you so much, Helen! 😀 That makes me happy!
If you could start a business what would it be? I always wanted to open a coffee shop, where besides coffee, we will also sell books and crafts that my wife would make…
What was your favorite vacation? A tie between Puerto Rico and Tennessee.
Do you have a hobby? Yes What is it? Writing
That sounds like a lovely coffee shop to me. I’d visit.
Those trips both sound lovely.
And you’re really good at it, too!
Happy Thursday, Willie!
poetry r us
washington dc
crossword puzzles
Nice! You would definitely thrive!
I love Washington DC. So much to see!
Those are fun!
Happy Thursday! I hope you’re having a good week!
ok ty
Hiya Kymber! Happy Thursday!
These should be easy… maybe.
If you could start a business, what would it be? A cat cafe. It takes two of my favorite things and combines them into a job I’d get out of bed early to do every day. Plus, showcasing adoptable cats helps our no-kill community with fosters and more adoption mechanisms. I’d be thrilled to be a part of that.
What was your favorite vacation? It’s been so long since I’ve been on a true vacation, I don’t remember anymore.
Do you have a hobby? What is it? Lately, I’ve been pouring a lot of time and effort in to honing my writing. Maybe that will pay off, or maybe it will be chaos on the pages of The Legacy. Who knows?
Hiya, Wendy! Happy Thursday to you, too!
Maybe… LOL
A cat cafe!! That is such a cool idea! We definitely need more of those in the world!
Uh-oh, sounds like you better take one in the near future.
I think that’s wonderful and that it will definitely pay off. Your Legacy rocks!
I ran a paperback bookstore that my parents set up before. That would be nice to do again.
My favorite vacation was to Toronto. We went and saw a concert of Lord of the Rings music (I’m a huge LOTR nerd), saw the Hockey Hall of Fame, we went to a thing called Little Canada and the Royal Ontario Museum. Everything was great but the ROM. We weren’t impressed. We also went on a fun trip to Seattle.
I like to write poetry and watch tv. I like to chat and hang out with friends. I’m on disability now so my hobbies are pretty limited.
Hi, Court!
I could see you with your own bookstore. How lovely.
I remember when you went on that trip and how much fun you had. So exciting!
You are such a good poet. If you ever want to feature any of your poems here again, let me know. Everyone loved it.
Happy Thursday, my bestie. TTYS.
If you could start a business what would it be? No business. We’re retired and we don’t want to work anymore.
What was your favorite vacation? A bloggers cruise out of Miami Florida. It was good to meet bloggers that I had blogged with for years.
Do you have a hobby? What is it? Blogging, used to be boating, playing games on the computer and loving my husband and our kitties.
Have a fabulous day and rest of the week, Kymber. Love and hugs. ♥
I don’t blame you there. 🙂
That’s soooo cool to go on a bloggers cruise. I want to do that!
That’s awesome, Sandee.
Have a great day! Love and hugs. xo
[…] Get to Know You […]
Very nice.
Thank you, Vijay. Happy Thursday!
You’re very welcome! 😊 Happy Thursday to you too—hope your day is going smoothly and filled with little moments of joy! 🌸✨
Thank you. I hope the same for you.
Stay connected and keep sharing.
You, too, my friend.
Hi Kymber! 💙💜💙💜🥰🥰 Here is mine! https://therapybits.com/2026/03/12/get-to-know-you-round-81/
Thank you, Chickie! I can’t wait to read your answers!
I’m surprised your business wasn’t a story writer!
I’m surprised by that, too! LOL I’m a story-writing-antiquer! lolol
Actually, I forgot to tell you that I believe all the items I collect have stories, and I’ll be posting one of those next week. 😀
A pet sitting business
Brighton in the UK. I have been three times. I am going for a fourth time in June, after several years since I last went. But it’s for a purpose this one as I have blogged about. But it will still be a part holiday. But a more reflective one, this one.
I am out of touch with my hobbies. Sketching has been the last thing I did after years not doing it. I am mostly out and about. But when home, it’s DVDs.
Oooooh, I love it!
That sounds really lovely, Liz!
I would love to see some of your sketches. I bet they’re beautiful. I like DVDs for sure.
Happy Thursday!
If you want to see, just click on the tag ‘sketch’ from the drop down menu and you will see posts with my sketches I last did that I shared here before. The sketch tag though is a mixture of drawings. As I once shared some drawings for just expressing. But the post title ‘Looks nothing like him. But I like the guy.’ That was an unexpected piece I was happy with. (I am not good sketching people.) 🙂
Oh, thank you! I will definitely look at them!
I can’t wait! Thank you for the info!
I would own a business that sells boats of all kinds, especially small speedboats.
My favorite holiday was many many years ago…
My hobbies are Ham Radio and Photography. Great fun!
That would be a cool business! How fun!
I bet it was very nice. 🙂
That sounds like loads of fun, John!
Happy Thursday!
I’d go shopping at your antique mall 😊 Maggie
YAY! My first customer! xoxo
3 easy questions:
1) Either photography or a bakery
2) We have had so many, but likely our 1985 trip to Japan, where we travelled through the country on our own.
3) Photography
Happy Thursday Kymber. Allan
A bakery? I didn’t see that one coming. Both answers are great!
That sounds like it was lovely.
Of course, and you’re so good at it, too.
Happy Thursday, Allan!
