Wednesday Hodgepodge

1. Big week in the US of A...do you do your own taxes? What's something you've found 'taxing' lately? 

I definitely do not do my own taxes!!! Something that I find taxing is all the paperwork special education teachers have to do.  SHEW!!!

2. When it comes to travel are you a last minute packer or a lay it all out a week in advance type? Do you struggle to pack light? Share a packing tip that has worked for you. 

I get all clothes out a week in advance.  Yes, I struggle to pack light.  I make a list of all the things I am going to pack, lay everything out, and then check off my list as I place the items in my suitcase. Of course, my list is usually started weeks before the trip!

3. April is National Grilled Cheese Month. Hmmm...who knew it got its own month? Do you like a grilled cheese sandwich? What ingredient do you add to take yours to the next level? 

I like a grilled cheese sandwich.  I do not add any extra ingredients to my grilled cheese.

4. There's a well known quote that says-


'A ship in the harbor is safe, but that's not what ships are built for." John A. Shedd  

Is constant growth necessary or do you think it's more important to prioritize stability and peace in your life? 

I choose BOTH.  Constant growth prevents boredom, but too much constant growth can lead to stress. I think it is important (at my age) to continue growing and learning. 

On the other hand, stability and peace provides long term health and happiness. 

I think it is a balance of both.

5. Let's wrap this up with a fun spring this or that-

  • daffodils or tulips
  • lemonade or iced tea
  • gardening or hiking
  • ladybugs or butterflies 
  • umbrella or raincoat
  • floral patterns or polka dots
Tulips, iced tea, gardening, butterflies, raincoat, and polka dots.

6. Insert your own random thought here. 


A great Disney Cruise!!!  I don't know who had the most fun...the grandsons or me!!  

I came back to the real world with all this state required testing!!!

Have a great week and Enjoy Life!
