Tuesday 4

 

Welcome once again to  Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 

Here are this week's questions

Welcome back to another Tuesday 4 in honour of Toni Taddeo it's founder.

They say March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb.  

March 29-31 are the "borrowing days" when weather is traditionally rough or stormy and the month was named for Mars the god of war because March was the time for the start of wars.

What brings out the lion in you? What brings out the lamb?

The lion comes out when I feel protective of my family, being around people I don’t know turns me into a lamb.

What are you enjoying in terms of TV, movies or books right now?

Listening to Dawn French book The Twat Files, so funny, haven’t seen a movie in years and don’t watch much on TV either. I do like Tipping Point Australia and Outback Truckers and have a season of Call the Midwife recorded but have to be in the right mood to watch.

It's Spring now... are you happy to see it come?  Will you be going out more?

Here it is Autumn and I am looking forward to cooler weather

Create an ideal weather scenario for each season, the perfect weather for summer, spring, autumn and winter.

I am drawing a blank cannot think of a damn thing so I am skipping this question.

This week her question

Do you look back or forward? 
How do you see your past and your future? Do you worry about the future, given the atmosphere created by the current American government?

Forward, not back I live in the here and now and don’t think much about what might happen. I am concerned about what the future may hold when it comes to this damn war an orange started as I do not want to see people being sent off to fight and possible die.

My answers

I had to think about this question trying to remember when it would had been and I think it would have been back in 2015 after a bad storm, I think we were without power for a couple of days.

After thinking about this I decided that the answer is nothing I am not waiting for anything.

Random stuff that comes to mind from time to time like things that happened when I was a child.

My wedding day, if I could do it again I wouldn’t be so nervous and think I would enjoy myself more.

A Green Hodgepodge

 

Hi all here I am taking part in 2026 hodgepodge Q & A the questions can be found here:

http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/2026/02/hodgepodge-questions-volume-645.html

St. Patrick's Day lands on March 17th. Do you believe in luck? Are there things you do thinking they’ll bring good luck or things you avoid because they're considered bad luck? 

I do believe luck plays a role in our lives; however, I do not do things to bring on good luck, nor do I avoid things because some thing it may be bad luck.

Forest-lime-sage-mint-olive-emerald...what's your favorite shade of green? 

I do like the shade that these answers are written in, I don’t have any idea what the different shades are all called.

In Ireland the meal on this day is often a hearty beef or lamb stew served with colcannon (mashed potato mixed with cabbage and leeks). In the US corned beef and cabbage is the more  with one of these dishes? Baked-fried-roasted-mashed...what's your favorite way to eat a potato?

I don’t celebrate the day, but I do like mashed potato as well as baked or roasted spuds.

What colour of the rainbow best represents your personality/mood today? Tell us why. 

I read this question and couldn’t remember the colours of the rainbow, had to Google it, anyway my colour for today is yellow because it is bright and cheery and that is how I have been feeling lately.

Which 'lucky' quote resonates with you. Elaborate. 

 'Luck is not something you can mention in the presence opoself-made men.' E.B. White 

'Diligence is the mother of good luck." Benjamin Franklin 

'Luck is where opportunity meets preparation.' Seneca 

'Shallow men believe in luck. Strong men believe in cause and effect.' Ralph Waldo Emerson 

I read than I stopped and thought about these quotes and decided on Ben Franklin, why buggered if I know it just feels right.

Insert your own random thought here. 

What is luck? Is it something someone is born with allowing them to glide through life with effortless ease. Does it hide in the cracks where choices are made, showing itself at random times. Often it waits where effort has been waiting for the right time to walk through an unlocked door allowing persistence to win.

I do not think Luck is magic, though it feels that way it’s the meeting of readiness and timing.

A little bit wild, a little bit you.
