Wednesday Hodgepodge







First I am so glad to be participating-have had my plate overloaded!!!

1. When is your next big deadline? What's it for?

Deadlines..... I need to finish moving daughter our of her apartment before May 25th.  Went last Saturday to pack up pictures, dishes, etc. but did not have a U-haul available.  It is going to be somewhat difficult because hub can't lift over 10lbs doctor's order!  But I will manage--this is big for me because if I am unable to finish moving her then I will have to pay another month's rent.  The end of the school year is approaching so I continue to get bogged down with paperwork.  Oh yeah-I am still planning a wedding in August.

2. May is National Barbecue Month. Do you prefer cooking indoors or out? What's the best thing about a barbecue? What's the last thing you cooked on an outdoor grill?

Hub loves to grill out and I never have any objection!  We have grilled out in the snow...
We grilled out Sunday-barbecue chicken and corn.

3. What is one thing on your "never again" list?
Stumped on this one-passed and then came back to answer.  Speaking of age in #4 how about Never again be pregnant!!

4. What's something that annoys you about people your own age? Something you love about your generation?

Annoys me--I know I am not a spring chick anymore (haha) but I don't feel I am over the hill.  It annoys me when I hear someone say I am too old to do something.  What I love about my generation is our character/integrity.  I believe my generation posses these traits which is lacking in our younger generation today.


5. Lilac, iris, hyacinth, pansy...your favorite purple flower?

6. Whats a song that always calms you down?

This song always calms me.

7. What's the last thing you donated?
Clothes and food.

8. Insert your own random thought here.
Again, I am happy to be participating again-have missed this.
Daughter had a great check-up at UVA cardiologist appointment yesterday!!  Yeah--Praise God!
I was approved to retire in December last night at the school board meeting so..as another chapter closes one new chapter will begin to open.

  1. Wow, there sure is a lot happening in your life right now. I am glad to hear of your daughter's good report from the doctor. Everything else sort of pales in comparison to good health, doesn't it. Have a good Wednesday!

  7. I also don't like when people tell me i'm too old for something. Some people are just a little too critical sometimes. ;) Congrats on retirement! Must be nice & you can travel more etc.
