Written by Sue, Tuesday, Oct., 6,2020 sunny, warm 70's beautiful fall day!🍂🍂
I am joining Joyce and many other sweet ladies on Wednesday Hodgepodge, I often ask myself, what questions might Joyce be asking this week? Most of the time they are questions that cause me to pause, and think about my daily life. Please join us.
I also enjoy getting to know others by their answers, for instance last week was mainly about coffee, I found that most ladies drink about 2 cups a day, as I do, the next day while pouring that first cup I thought about those who were up early and pouring their first cup, wondering how they were doing! I am also getting to meet and make new friends. Thank you Joyce for hosting.
I couldn't think of any thing, I have been doing this for so long it just comes naturally to me.
However I will show you one thing I enjoy each day as I am washing dishes, the view from my kitchen window, I get to see the seasons as they come and go, and of course the sun as it rises between the trees, a reminder of a new day, and I get to try and get it right.
Psalm 118: This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
2. October 5th is/was National Do Something Nice Day. So what did you/will do?
Cooked dinner last evening for daughter and family, she has such a busy schedule, going to school, teaching, and building a new home. We usually try and eat healthy but once in a while you just have to have something else! menu: fried pork chop cutlets, smothered in gravy , over a bed of rice, peas, salad, and homemade biscuits! Did someone say yummy, we made pigs of ourselves, no pun intended.😋😋
3. What question do you hate to answer?
My age, simply because I don't act my age, I decided many moons ago to stay at 39! I have been trying to convince my body of this, but to no avail!
4.Do we have control over technology or does it have control over us. In the same vein, have you watched The Social Dilemma (available on Netflix) and if so what did you think?
I believe technology controls us, (happy to say, not me anymore, I learned the hard way) I see this all the time, especially when dining at a restaurant, people cannot even have a meal with their family without most of them on their phones! I look at the children who are not on phones, isolated, longing for that personal attention from the ones they love the most. Time is so short, and precious with our loved ones.
And what's this with texting, though I do some,I love to hear a familiar voice over the phone.
No, I haven't watched.
5. What are three small things that make your day?
A good morning kiss from DH, my first cup of coffee, my evening walk!
6. Insert your own random thoughts here.
After many months of extreme heat, and humidity Fall's arrival has brought so much relief, I am enjoying spending more time outside, gardening, walking, savoring the sights and sounds that it is bringing, even our animals are happier.
I have been busy this week repotting my household plants. I try and do this every two yrs. or when needed, it has been over two yrs, the plants were root bound and so much in need of pruning.
First thing, I usually have extra pots, so I wash them,
then I start repotting...I also take cutting from said plants and root them therefore making new plants. Most of the time I have some kind of plant cutting rooting in water, thus making more plants.
"Hello my pretties," Feeling better?
I started Monday and will finish today, I have three large plants left. Whew!!! this has been a real task, but what a wonderful feeling as I walk by and say "hello" to them. They will sit here on the dining room table for a few days to acclimate before finding a new home, I have plants in every room, yes, even the bathroom.
Thank you for stopping by,
may your day be filled
and overflowing
with many blessings,
love,
Sue
