The Hodgepodge is in the Pink

None of that lovely snow here. I'm still hoping that we get something. Just a little. Enough for a day or two or five off from school. Anyone willing to share? 

I missed the Hodgepodge last week so I'm even more excited about it this week! Come on, let's see what everyone's talking about---

1. Do you wear your heart on your sleeve, or keep your emotions tucked in tight? I think I keep them tucked in but I have a friend from my college years who swears I don't. 

2. How did you meet your closest friend? During our college years. At a bar, of course, where he worked and I played. I walked up to the cash register one night and he said, "Have you ever seen mincemeat?" I said no and he held up two peppermint patties and put them together. I know, groan. But I have adored him ever since. :)

3.  Pink lemonade, grilled salmon, cotton candy, pink grapefruit, a strawberry milkshake, or raspberry sorbet...of the pink foods listed, which one is your favorite? Least favorite? Which one have you most recently consumed? When you write, pink food, I get queasy. I guess the salmon is best and the grapefruit the least favorite.  

4. When were you last 'tickled pink' over something? Explain. Does my dad getting the good news that his cancer is NOT changing for the worse count? Cause I was over the moon about that!

5. Are you a fan of television talk shows? Daytime, nighttime, or both? What's your favorite? Nope. Don't watch them. 

6. When was the last time you wanted to ask a question, but felt too foolish to do so? I outgrew that years ago. I don't care how it makes me seem, if I have a question, I ask it. 

7. My favorite activity right now is sitting.I get up and walk the dog by 5:30 every morning and then wash the dishes that were left in the sink AFTER I washed the dishes the night before. I make coffee, get ready to go to school and head out where I have 7 and 8 classes of little kids who keep me on my toes every day. Then I come home and wash the dishes that were left for me by the one who sits at home all day and then I prepare a meal and wash those dishes and try to do whatever work I need to do and any other housework because, God forbid, the one who sits home all day do anything at all. So, when I get a chance to finally sit, I quite enjoy it. 

8.  Insert your own random thought here. I'm reading a book right now about kids who come back to the nest. So far, the woman who wrote it is an idiot. I'll let y'all know what I think when I get to the end. Let me just say that I already was NOT digging have one back at home. And now that another one has flown in, I'm looking for a new address. I cannot believe I was sad when they all left. 

Do y'all know that commercial with the people with the holes in their necks talking about what not to do if you have a hole in your neck? I think it's a stop smoking commercial. I hate that thing. I turn it off every time. I don't smoke and I don't need to see why I should stop. 

And that's it for me this week! :)

Have a great rest of the week, y'all!
