Wednesday Hodgepodge

From this Side of the Pond

1. What do you like most about your family? 

I like the support and laughter.   My family has helped me through difficult times and there is nothing better than hearing the laughter of my grandsons.


2. What's something nice that's happened to you recently? 

Last week, a friend came and helped me dig my potatoes.  My potatoes didn't do too well, but thankful for his help.





3. Do you like the color orange? Besides a pumpkin and an actual orange, what's something orange you love?

I like the color orange.  Some things orange I love are:
carrots, sweet potatoes, creamsicles , sweet potato fries, cheddar cheese, cheese balls ( I can eat the entire container)(need to get off the food wagon!)

basketballs (love going to games and now will be getting ready for grandsons to play)playing nerf guns with the grandsons and those crazy race tracks and hot wheels!

4.  What's something you have now you couldn't have imagined having five years ago? How does that make you feel? What's possible now because of it? 

My smartwatch.  I always wore just a regular watch and felt naked if I had forgotten to wear it. 

Now, instead of carrying my phone everywhere and leaving it places, my smartwatch has been a lifesaver.  The principal needs to get in touch with the staff sometimes regarding a student and will text us.  Before having a smartwatch my name was usually called over the intercom (because I had left my phone somewhere).  Now, I see the message before hearing my name over the intercom.

I love to walk and never knew how many miles I had walked.  Now, I do!!  Thanks to my smartwatch.  

5. Let's wrap this one up with an October this or that...

  • pumpkin bread or apple cider donut

  • cozy sweater or cozy hoodie

  • apple picking or pumpkin picking

6. Insert your own random thought here. 



I don't think my leaves are as pretty as they have been in the past.

But

this is coming too soon!!  Thankful the weather has been nice to get some of the leaves up.

Have a great rest of the week and Enjoy Life

  1. It is so good to have a supportive family, mine are like that too.
    How great to have your friend help with your potatoes.
    Smartwatches are fantastic things. I don't wear mine but all of my family have their own and love them.

  2. I'm glad you have the grands to add a lot of joy to your life. I didn't think I wanted an iWatch, but I love it. I got a bracelet band to make it feel more like jewelry and that has helped me love it more. Have a great day!
