Springing into the Hodgepodge

It seems spring has officially sprung though it's been spring-like weather here since late January which means I've been allergy ridden for what seems YEARS. We had a bit of severe weather alerts yesterday complete with a tornado watch but we live so close to the ocean these things usually dissipate before they get to us which is what happened yesterday, thankfully. We did get some nerve-wracking lightning and sudden loud thunder that frightened ten years off my life but other than that we're good. Spring weather. So much fun. 

What's really fun? The Hodgepodge! Won't you join us today if you haven't already? 

1. On this first official day of spring tell us something (besides the weather) you're looking forward to in this season of the year. I'm looking forward to the end of spring and the end of summer. These are the two seasons that try to kill me every year as they attack my allergies and bring the dreaded oppressive heat. There is a birthday this season, NashvilleDaughter and spring always brings fond memories of my grandmother who loved spring and had a spring birthday. Other than that--

2. When it comes to spring cleaning would you rather wash windows or wash baseboards? Windows. Clean out closets or clean out the garage? Closets. Dust ceiling fans or dust bookcases? Either. Wipe down the patio furniture outside or wipe down the light fixtures inside? Nearly anything INSIDE! Any of these tasks recently completed? Not really but the windows are screaming at me and the closets can just shut up. 

3. Your favorite thing to make/eat that calls for cream cheese? Cheesecake! Sour cream? My cheese sauce for veggies or that yummy sour cream and onion dip that tastes so dang good with potato chips and I'm not supposed to eat. Whipped cream? Just give it to me straight up especially is it's homemade. LOL

4. I read here a list of commonly mispronounced words. What is a word that gives you trouble when it comes to pronunciation? Well, according to the link I should just stop talking because I mispronounce everything. Ha! The one I knew I couldn't pronounce is gyro. I won't even order it because I can't pronounce it even when I hear it I always forget. 

5. What's a song you love with the word 'rain' in the title or lyrics? There are several I enjoy but this one popped into my head first so it wins for today:

6.  Insert your own random thought here. I read Dr. T Berry Brazelton passed away on Tuesday. He was such a wonderful man and my role model because as a developmental specialist he was spot. on.  He was the only developmental specialist I gave credence to while in grad school studying early childhood development. I wish I had known him personally. Happy travels, Dr. Brazelton. 

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