Wednesday's Hodgepodge....


It's time for the Wednesday Hodgepodge!  Thanks to our hostess, Joyce, for giving us the questions that we answer and then link up again at From This Side of the Pond.  Join us! Her link is in her button below!

Hodgepodge Questions-Volume 295



1. Can you believe it's the end of January?  Time just goes faster and faster the older I get.  What was the best day of January 2017 for you, and why?  The best was finding the perfect retirement home for us to buy!  We are SO excited and hope to get the keys before this time next week!

2. What sounds make up the background noise in your life?  The sound of packing tape being ripped from the roll!  Ha!  Do you know what I mean?  The sound is horrid!

3. I read on the Power of Positivity website a list of ten things to drop from your life right now. They are-

anger outbursts, people who put you down, regret, negative self talk, being a people pleaser, the notion you need to be perfect, the past (but keep the lessons learned!), gossip and judgment, comparing yourself to others, and the word hate (focus on what you love instead)

Which thing on the list do you most need to drop?  Probably gossip and judgment.  Are you trying or will you try?  Trying all the time and have even considered dropping out of Facebook to be done with it.  Instead, I just unfriended almost 100 people.  It felt good!


4. What is sacred to you?  My faith and my family.  Don't mess with either!

5. January is National Oatmeal month. Are you a fan, and if so how do you like it?  I am not an oatmeal fan.  I might make it for breakfast once a year when Joe wants some. I do use it in meatloaf, instead of breadcrumbs.  I like oatmeal cookies too!  :)

6. What feelings does twilight stir up in you?  LOL....it just means jammie time these days!  Ha!

7. Something you're looking forward to next month?  Easy!!  You all can probably answer this for me!  Being moved in and settled in our new home!

8. Insert your own random thought here.  There is nothing random in my life right now. Packing, sorting, tossing, selling....


Thanks for your visit!  Happy hump day!  Happy February!  Peace & hugs.
