Oh, how I've missed my weekly Hodgepodge! Last week was nuts, starting a new full time job while at the same time finishing up my evening job too... add in there soccer games, church activities, and just regular every day life, and whew... we made it, is all I can say about that! But here I am - still a little nuts, still a little frazzled, but I'm squeezing in some time for a quick Hodgepodge! Please let me know you've stopped by, and I'll see you next week!
1. What is something you'll never forget about the age you are right now?
How wonderful it is to have all three children at home - my eldest will be off to college in a couple of years, and I know from that point on things will rapidly start changing in our family dynamic. So I'm treasuring this time...
2. What's a household chore you've never done? How have you managed that???
Cleaned the gutters. Either we've had homes without gutters, or, well, I just figure they clean themselves out... obviously we haven't had any major issues.
3. Does nature shape our personalities more than nurture? Explain?
Um, this is a little deep for 6 am with no coffee yet, but I would have to say that, in general, it's a combination of the two. And I'm going to leave it at that because, like I said, no coffee yet... and if I really start rambling now, it's going to go on for fifteen paragraphs...
4. Friday (February 28th) is 'Something on a Stick Day'...funny because Zoanna over atA Penchant for Pens recently sent me an idea for a question relating to this topic. What's your favorite food eaten on a stick?
First, a giant handwave and shout to my friend Zo! HI ZO! :-)
And my favorite food eaten on a stick? A fudgesicle, of course. Yummy.
5. Which of your five senses do you treasure most, and why?
Oh gosh... I'm a huge fan of all of them! When I think about not being able to see, hear, touch my loved ones... it would be hard to go without any of those... but I'd have to say not being able to see would be the worst. To see the ocean, the mountains, my loved ones...
6. What's the best music, theatre, or sporting venue you've been to? What made it great?
I know I can't compete with Joyce, who I'm sure has incredible venues in Italy and England, but for me, I'd have to say it was when I got to perform at Carnegie Hall when I was in college. What an amazing theatre!
7. It's the last week of the month...in five words or less bid adieu to your February.
God is good - Amen!
