Hodgepodge Questions-Volume 364

1. In Monday’s post, I mentioned I would incorporate the word I was given for letter K into this week’s questions. That word was karaoke. On a scale of 1-10, how excited would you be to find out there was karaoke happening at your next gathering/outing with friends? 10=gimme that microphone!, and 1=I suddenly remembered there’s somewhere else I need to be.  How about "0"!!   Have you ever actually done karaoke?  Yes, in a family setting - not in public.  If you had to perform karaoke what would be your ‘go-to’ song?  Love Potion #9.  I think I know all the words to that one. LOL

2. How do you listen to music these days? Favorite app or do you listen the old fashioned way? Do you have music playing often in your home? Is there still a CD player in your car?  I rarely listen to music.  We have Sirius in the car and never listen to a radio station now.  There is rarely music playing in our home.  There is a single CD player in our car that we have never used.  Our old car had a 6-CD player that we used all the time but that was before Sirius.

3. The HP lands on US tax day this year. Or what used to be tax day before everything including filing your taxes was canceled, delayed, postponed or extended. FYI- filing your taxes has not been canceled, only delayed for a bit. (July 15th now, I believe.)

Besides staying away from anyone and everyone, what have you found taxing lately?  I really, really miss eating out and hugging friends.

4. You’re without power so no oven, and you can’t open your frig or freezer in order to keep what’s in there from spoiling. And you don’t have access to take out. What will you make us for dinner?  We always have soup in the pantry and a gas grill outside, so soup on the grill it is!

5.  I’ve seen this exercise going around Facebook and thought it would be a good one to include in the HP...what are five things everybody seems to love and go crazy for that you personally don’t care for?  Okra; The Bachelor on TV; the Masked Singer on TV; This is Us on TV; oysters...

6.  Insert your own random thought here.  Joe and I had our annual dermatology appointments yesterday. The doctor sent off three things she biopsied from me.   Joe was clear!  She doesn't think my three 'spots' will be anything but wanted to make sure.  I went online to the Florida Orthopedic Institute to see if my pre-op appointment is still there and it is, along with two post-op appointments.  Fingers crossed that my knee surgery will stay on the schedule for May 12.  I guess we will know by May 1st.  My physical therapy appointment is still on for April 27th, too.   

I hope that things will begin to slowly open up again, little-by-little, so we can get back to our lives before so many more are ruined by job loss and worse.  Things I read are pointing to getting the population most at risk protected and then relaxing things for the healthier population.  I sure don't want our health-care professionals to be at a higher risk of infection (I did get that hurtful and ridiculous accusation by someone).  My husband is also in the higher-risk population and I don't want him getting sick either, or any of you reading this!  The virus is real, though I will never be convinced that the impetus for this world-wide lockdown is not money and politics, but that is another discussion for another time (or best, not at all!).

Thanks for your visit!!

Peace & hugs!!  God bless!!
