Good Morning Patty,
I appreciate your respectful way of speaking. I am also happy to speak in a respectful way, I enjoy that. I also believe it is possible to speak honestly and also retain good respect for each other.
If you live in Northeast of Thailand, maybe this is a more natural setting with less buildings and more trees. That is ok with me, I enjoy that also.
I understand you enjoy watching TV, it is good sometimes. Mostly I really avoid watching TV, I would much rather put my eyes directly on my partner or friend. In fact, what is tiring for me is always using computer and cell phone screen. Sometimes I just want a hug, or to cook together.
Just like how I love cooking I also love gardening, working outside, but most of all I like to have teamwork with people around me.
In a group, I often become a leader, but not by force, often times those around me ask me to be the leader.
One of the happy things for me is when someone doesn't have a job and I give them work and teach them how to do new skills. They often rejoice if they see they keep learning new skills and doing more and more great work.
If there's a party, definetly, it's much nicer to have a cook, so you can spend time with your friends. Outside of the US there is more culture of food workers, that are affordable. Here in US, it is very expensive for labor, as I'm sure you know.
So yes, I enjoy watching TV and movies but if we were together I would be much more happy spending the time together without any electronics and technology.
That is the quality time for me, that my body and mind feel much better.
