Hello Friends, it is Wednesday and that means it is time for the Hodgepodge.
Joyce asks the questions.
We answer the questions.
1. What gives you energy? What takes it away?
Having a fun project to do gives me energy.
Time with my family and friends gives me energy.
It might seem strange, but working in my garden gives me energy. If I am having a bad day, just feeling low and tired, a bit of gardening usually helps me feel better.
Drama ... drama saps my energy.
When things should really be easy, but red tape makes them difficult, I get very tired, very quickly.
2. How often do you shop for clothes? What accessory do you always wear?
I shop for clothes if I need something for an occasion, like attending a wedding or fun party. I will shop for clothes if something I currently have has seen its day. I recently purchased a new sweatshirt.
I wear earrings everyday... in fact I feel naked without them. Hee Hee!
3. What's something free that you feel grateful for?
LOVE
I am so thankful to be loved by my family and friends.
4. Breakfast, lunch, dinner...which meal of the day do you enjoy most? What's your go-to comfort food?
I will say dinner because I enjoy dinner with my husband most evenings. I do love our weekend breakfasts together, my husband enjoys making breakfast for us on Saturday and Sunday.
My go to comfort food is.. chicken noodle soup.
5. This week the world remembers the tragic events of 9/11. Do you mark
the day in any way? How do historical events shape your perspective on
your personal challenges?
My husband and I pray for those who have died, not just on September 11th, but years later from the toxic air that those later developed cancer from. We pray for our military. We will reminisce about what we were doing September 11th during our evening conversation.
Historical events shape my perspective on my personal challenges in ways of gratitude.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
Autumn is starting to visit around here. We dipped down to 36 degrees over the weekend. Summer is coming back this week. I am alright with that.
Beautiful flowers! We dipped, too, temperature wise at night and we're also going to have much warmer, summer type weather for at least the next week. I said the same thing you did about dinner- it's the only meal of the day that I regularly eat with my husband. Agree about drama and red tape as being draining! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful picture of flowers! I agree with you about the red tape. I work in public service and it so draining dealing with it. Some days I want to pull my hair out! Stopping by from the hop!
ReplyDeleteWe are currently having lovely weather with sunny warm days and cooler, but not cold, evenings. Ah yes, red tape is draining. I've recently had to interact with a government agency and they didn't make it easy, but it's done! I wanted to pick up some mums this week, but I know we'll be hot again before October rolls in so I'm waiting. Have a great day!
