1. April showers bring May flowers...what have you been showered
with this month?
Lots of
sweat! I started exercising again using
The Biggest Loser DVDs and they are quite a challenge. I know they are doing something. Hopefully I’ll see good results quickly.
2. What is the nature of compassion? Is it learned or innate? Can compassion belearned? If you're a parent is this something you've purposely sought to instill in your children, and if so how?

I think it is both.
Some are gifted more than others with compassion but everyone can learn
it. I think we can instill compassion
into our children by modeling it. If
they grow up seeing us caring for others, those things will become the
norm.
3. Do you prefer to watch romantic comedy or romantic drama...or are you rolling your eyes saying bring on the action flicks?

I prefer romantic comedy movies. Sometimes they are so silly but they usually
are feel good movies.
4. It's April which means baseball season is officially upon us here in the US of A. Humphrey Bogart is quoted as saying "A hot dog at the ballgame beats roast beef at the Ritz." Agree or Disagree?

I agree. I’m not one
for fancy restaurants. There’s something
fun about eating a hot dog outdoors.
5. What's something in your community or city that needs fixing or improving?

Unfortunately it would be our Main Street. Many businesses have gone out due to high
rents. While there are still a few great
shops there are many vacancies. We have
such a lovely town, close to the water and lots of nature around us. I would love to see some upgrades done to the
center of it.

7. April
22nd is Earth Day...do you believe there's life on other planets? That
wasn't the question you were expecting was it?
No, and no.

Oh! I love your song choice! I was struggling to think of one. But that one is perfect! :)
ReplyDeleteooh, good song! And good for you, doing the exercise workouts! Keep up the good work, it's worth it in the end! have a great day!
ReplyDeleteGreat answer for #6. I couldn't think of anything for that one!
ReplyDeleteI've been sweating through a lot of exercising lately too. I'm seeing some results, but I wish they were faster. : )
Great song choice!!! And I must add, good luck with your new exercise regiment.
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful song. I missed that question however I might have answered "The yellow rose of Texas"
ReplyDeleteI will definitely be singing that song in my head all day long now!
ReplyDeleteFirst, I LOVE your background! (I have the same thing!)
ReplyDeleteI said the first song that popped into my head, but I ADORE "The Sound of Music"!
I've got the biggest loser yoga for weight loss & its a good one. I was wondering about the other dvd's myself.
ReplyDeleteI'll now twirl in my office ala Julie Andrews :)
Lots of hot dog eaters in the Hodgepodge today :)
ReplyDeleteI think lots of Main Street areas must be suffering these days.
Lovely song choice! And, I hope the DVDs work well for you! :)
ReplyDeleteWay to go on exercising! I love feel good movies. Great song choice.
ReplyDeleteGood song and great movie!!
ReplyDeleteOur Main Street could use some improving too. It's tough to be a small business owner these days!
ReplyDeleteYour background is so springy and happy!
ReplyDeleteI like that song too.
And I'm not fancy either. I love a good hotdog on the grill!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend! :-)
