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

http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/2026/01/hodgepodge-questions-volume-640.html

What's something recent that had you 'tickled pink'? 

Can’t think of anything but I bet I was with Sue at the time

2. A bed of roses, everything's coming up roses, every rose has it's thorn, stop and smell the roses, rose-colored glasses, a rose among thorns...which rosy expression might currently be applied to your life in some way? 

After some thought I am going with stop and smell the roses, because lately that’s what I feel that I need to do, slow down and enjoy what life has for me at this time

3. What makes you feel loved and appreciated? 

Acknowledgement

4. A box of chocolates or a bouquet of fresh flowers-what's your pleasure? Any special plans for Valentine's Day? 

Either, as long as I don’t have to buy my own

5. Share a favorite quote, scripture, or song lyric relating to love. 

Can’t think of anything

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

“It doesn’t make sense to call ourselves ugly, because we don’t really see ourselves. We don’t watch ourselves sleeping in bed, curled up and silent with chests rising and falling with our own rhythm. We don’t see ourselves reading a book, eyes fluttering and glowing. You don’t see yourself looking at someone with love and care inside your heart. There’s no mirror in your way when you’re laughing and smiling and happiness is leaking out of you. You would know exactly how bright and beautiful you are if you saw yourself in the moments where you are truly yourself.”

I do not know who wrote this but I like itl

Not a sporting hodgepodge

 

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

http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/2026/01/hodgepodge-questions-volume-639.html

The Winter Olympics kick off on Friday, February 6th...on a scale of 1-10 how excited are you? (1= eh and 10=watching every event all day every day). What's your favorite Winter Olympic sporting event? 

Since I have zero interest in sport the answer is none

In other sporting news, the Superbowl (American football's championship game) will be played on Sunday, February 8th. So tell us...what's your superpower?’

I would say how I try to see other’s point of view and being able to accept that other people don’t see things how I do and to be able to not have a fit over it.

Are you a romantic? 

Nope I don’t think I am, I’m to practical

Blue cheese-yay or nay? How about feta? If you said yes to one or both, what's a dish you like that calls for one of these? 

Blue cheese yuck and feta not keen on that either

What's more important-doing what you love or loving what you do? 

Loving what you do because honestly you often are unable to do what you love.

Insert your own random thought here. 

Remember that what we tell ourselves can do so much harm to us if we are all running ourselves down with negative thoughts telling ourselves that we are stupid or ugly and unlovable is not good, every day we should remind ourselves that we are indeed loveable and even if we have a stupid thought from time to time it doesn’t make us stupid just normal. I often tell myself that I am looking good when I look at myself in a mirror, yes there are times I will say I look old, but I don’t say I look ugly, just old. We need to have more positive thoughts about ourselves.

This weeks Tuesday's 4

 

Welcome all, here I am taking part in Tuesday's 4, this is the first one for 2026 this year I am going to try and post on the right day of the week, anyway, here are this week’s questions.

Welcome once again to  Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 

Here are this week's questions

What is something you are proud of that we don't know about?

I can’t think of a damn thing, I am pretty sure everyone knows I am proud of my daughters and grandchildren, and I am sure I have mentioned how proud I am of my sister Sue and her struggle with addiction.

What subject or things are overrated or talked about too much in your opinion.?

Politics without a doubt especially since rarely anything new is mentioned and they all lie so much you can’t believe anything a pollie says.

What things and topics should be talked about more often or are under rated in your opinion?

Acceptance of other people’s opinions and believes not just by in general but within one’s own family.

Are there any things you've changed your mind about in the last few years?’

The rights and feelings of transgender people, once this was something I never considered, now I do.
