| I was curious about what I could see from the street, I asked my husband to drive down so I could get a closer look. |
Hello Friends,
It is Wednesday and it is time for the Hodgepodge.
Joyce asks the questions.
We answer the questions.
1. Do you think you're driven more by curiosity or comfort? Explain.
Curious I am, just like Curious George.
Last week we were on one of our 52ish adventures. As we drove along I could see a great Halloween display. I wanted to see more. My husband he goes along with my curious nature, even if it does not peak his curiosity, in which this display did not peak his curiosity. But he drove me down the side street so I could take photos and say
"Oh My That is A LOT!"
2. What non-food item is in your refrigerator or freezer?
My Kitchen Aid ice cream maker.
3. Are you comfortable with silence? If you're home alone, do you like silence or do you need regular background noise? Do you seek out times and places to be silent? What's your favorite place to find silence/be silent?
I do enjoy silence.
When I am home alone I usually have classical or instrumental music playing in the background or I am listening to a podcast or book on audio.
I never, ever go on my walks with music or podcasts or anything in my ears. I love to listen to all the sounds around me.
The silence before and after a fresh snow is magical and is one of my favorite times to go out for a walk in the woods.
4. Carpentry, electrical, plumbing, landscaping...which skill would you most like to possess and how would you put that skill to use today?
Our son Sam is doing some work in his garage, he is insulating it, adding electrical outlets and more. I would love to be an electrician so I could help him out.
5. Do you lean more towards being too needy or too independent? Which do you find harder to deal with in others?
I am more independent and can be too independent. I do not like to ask for help and usually feel like I can find a way to figure it all out.
I do have a hard time with those who can be too needy, especially if added drama comes with.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I am addicted to this game. My friend L introduced it to me during a summer visit. I had to order the game for our family. My husband and I try to play a game each evening after dinner.
Shut the Box







I will look into that game. I am always looking for a good game. I am the exact same way about walking or running outdoors. No headphones, no music- I listen to the sounds around me. I also like to walk in freshly fallen snow. I've never walked in the woods in the snow- I should try that this winter. Enjoyed your answers :).
ReplyDeleteWe have the game and love it too. I like to hear the sounds around me when I walk. We used to take a lot of snowy walks when we lived in NJ, but we don't get that kiind of snow here in SC. When my oldest daughter lived in TN her next door neighbor was 'the Halloween house'. Her little ones were alternately fascinated and afraid. Have a great day!
