Summer Hodgepodge in winter

 


Here I am doing another hodgepodge which is brought to you by Joyce over at http://www.fromthissideofthepond.com/

Here are this week’s questions.

1. The midpoint of summer (believe it or not) is August 7th. Describe a perfect summer day. Have you had one this year? 

A perfect summer’s day is one that is cooled by air conditioning if there is no cool breeze. It is a day that I don’t have to go out due to the heat.

2. What's one thing you wish you knew before starting high school? 

That it was a place I had to attend day after day for the next four years, I hated high school, but I went pretty much every damn day.

3. What's something that bothers you if it's not done perfectly? 

I remember when I was younger and went shopping on my own leaving Tim at home with the girls, he would do a load of washing and hung it out to dry and the way he hung it really annoyed me, I wanted to go and “fix” it but told myself he wouldn’t do it if I did that. So, I left it.

4. What's the most overrated food you're convinced people are just pretending to enjoy? What's a trendy food you actually do enjoy and would say is definitely not overrated? 

After giving this some thought I can’t think of anything except maybe tripe that sounds disgusting. As for something not overrated that’s easy chocolate.

5. Wrapping it up this week with five fun this or thats...

personal stylist or personal chef? Personal Chef

Dance like nobody's watching or sing like nobody's listening?

Dance of course


Unlimited tacos or free pizza? Pizza

Bookshelf organization-by size or by genre? Both

 
Ten minutes late or ten minutes early? Early always early

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

No matter how long or short one’s life isn’t the point of life but how we chose to live it, go through it, or experience it say it how you will. We have a choice whether we see the glass half full or half empty, seeing the negative in life’s experiences over and over leads to sadness and maybe depression. Yes, life is full of twists and turns, ups and downs like a roller-coaster but as long as we stay on the tracks, we should be ok. Remember, yesterday is done and dusted, tomorrow is unknown and today is what is.
