Man, I'm on a roll with yet another Hodgepodge under my belt! Pretty impressed with myself. Now, if I could just get in the swing of posting about my everyday life, again, that would be awesome. All in due time, right? If you'd like to join in, it really is easy. Simply answer the questions on your own blog and link up. Let's do this!
1. Are you more task oriented or people oriented? Elaborate. I think I'm both, actually. When given a task, I tackle it until it's completed. I can't rest, otherwise. I'm people oriented in the sense that I feel as though I get along well with others and I enjoy their company.
2. December 15th is National Wear Your Pearls Day...do you own/wear pearls? If you're a man answering the question, does your sweetheart own/wear pearls? Everyone share a 'pearl of wisdom' with us today. I do own a couple of strands of pearls that belonged to my mom. No, I don't wear them (not sure why). I have them tucked away safely in my jewelry box. My 'pearl of wisdom' for today...don't let the hustle and bustle of this time of year turn you into a Scrooge. Stay focused on what this season is all about...love, compassion, kindness, and generosity.
3. Speaking of pearls...oysters? Are you a fan or not a fan? If you answered yes, tell us your favorite way to eat them? If you said no, be honest-have you ever tried one or does the thought of eating an oyster make you gag? Nope...not a fan! I have never tried one and I'm not about to start now. They look downright disgusting to me and I'm not one for anything slimy. BLECH!
4. Time Magazine has named President-elect Donald Trump as Person of the Year. Let's take presidents and presidential candidates out of the mix for a minute. If a political figure had not been chosen, who would you name Man or Woman of the Year for 2016? I'm going with Simone Biles, USA Olympic Gold Medalist. Talk about grit and determination! That girl has it all and made our country so very proud! Talk about a million dollar smile...
5. The Pantone Color of the Year for 2017 has been announced and it's a vibrant green aptly named-greenery. Your thoughts? If this a color currently in your home or wardrobe? Will you add something in this shade for the new year? Click here to see the new color. Green has never been a favorite color of mine, regardless of the shade, so I wouldn't say I'm a fan. No, this color isn't currently in my home and definitely not in my wardrobe. Green works against my fair complexion and makes me look very washed out. I highly doubt I will add this shade to anything in 2017.
6. Today, I've had too much_____________________. Today, I've had too much of waking up congested. I think it's due to the rain we've had, but I have so much pressure in my head right now. Hopefully, with a couple snorts of nasal spray, it will subside soon.
7. Share a favorite lyric from a favorite Christmas carol. 'Fall on your knees, Oh, hear the angel voices, O night divine, O night when Christ was born.'
8. Insert your own random thought here. My choral production over the weekend was a huge success! About 2,000 people attended each night and 70 people made decisions to give their lives to Christ. Isn't that just amazing? Toward the end of the production, all of us choir members walked down the aisle of the sanctuary with candles and sang, 'You're all I need. You're all I need. Jesus, you're all I need. You satisfy, my needs you supply. Jesus, you're all I need' without any music. I saw many folks wiping tears from their eyes...I was one of them. Loved being part of such an amazing event!
