Chinese New Year will be celebrated
on February 10th, and 2013 is the year of the snake. When did you last see a
snake? Are you okay around snakes or do they give you the shivers?
They
give me the beyond shivers! Yuck! When I was teaching in public school I took
my class to an assembly. It was a
reptile man! I had to leave and have
another teacher watch my class and I didn’t care if the principal knew!
2.
The color red in Chinese culture
usually means good luck. Do you believe in luck?
No. I don’t believe
in luck. I believe there is no such
thing as chance circumstances. Every
little detail is only a small piece of the big picture.
3.
sledding-ice skating-building a
snowman...if given a choice, which activity would you choose? Which of
the three have you done most recently?
I’d choose sledding.
I went a couple of weeks ago.
There wasn’t much snow so we went to a local state park and found a
couple of hills covered with a little snow and leaves. I am hoping for a big snowfall this weekend
to go again when the ground is totally covered in snow.
4.
Ralph Waldo Emerson is credited as
saying, "The years teach much which the days never knew." Where
have you seen this quote played out in your own life?
I guess to me it means the big picture. It is a long story and one I probably couldn’t
describe fully in words but let’s just say my family and my husband’s family
crossed paths many years before we met.
We only found out years later.
5. When was the last time you
ate a cupcake?
I last ate a cupcake in September at
my daughter’s birthday party. I ordered
cake but since I can’t have eggs I made some egg free chocolate cupcakes and
froze them. Then I just took one out
when I wanted to enjoy dessert with everyone.
6. What's something you can't say no
to?
I
have a hard time saying no when there is a need. As long as it is supposed that is possible
for me to do I usually can’t say no.
7. Are you a doodler?
Yes.
I learn best by taking notes and doodling. I still doodle when I am on the phone or at
church. I like to fill in all the bubble
letters and then make random circles and shapes.
8. Insert your own random thought here.
I just realized I didn’t get to do my hodgepodge questions
and it is well into the afternoon. I
need to get ready for the chiropractor so that is about as random as it is
going to get today.

They are forecasting a ridiculous amount of snow here for Friday. I was supposed to take my dog to the vet for a shot and just called to change the appt to Thursday. She said the whole town had the same idea : ) We haven't had a huge snowfall yet this year...they keep changing the amounts so we'll see what we actually end up with.
ReplyDeleteI don't do snakes. Wow, I think your the only one I read today who actually did something in the snow recently.
ReplyDeleteI am loving winter this year! The snow is great! Wish I had my grand kids here to play in it
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you are going to get some snow and have a chance to play in it again! :)
