Wednesday Hodgepodge

 
 Hi Friends and Happy Hodgepodge Day!  As always, linking up with Joyce and answering her fun questions so let's get to it...
 
 
 
1. What gives you energy? What takes it away? 
 

 
 Kids actually give me energy...they keep me busy and keep me young...despite the stressful times, they feed my soul
 
I would say that unappreciative folks and those who think status quo is ok..never trying to improve things, especially at work...those folks/things zap my energy...I try very hard to stay positive but sometimes it knocks me off my feet when you get nothing in return 
 
 

2. How often do you shop for clothes? What accessory do you always wear? 

 


I used to shop for clothes all year long but the last three years have been very challenging financially so now it is only during an occasional sale and usually only for my girls...as far as an accessory I always wear...I would have to say sunglasses- all year long! 

 

 

 

 

3. What's something free that you feel grateful for?


 Church...Concerts in the Park...The Rail Trail

 

 

 

4. Breakfast, lunch, dinner...which meal of the day do you enjoy most? What's your go-to comfort food? 

 


I would say I enjoy dinner most as it is the time that I can take my time...I especially enjoy a dinner out on the weekends...with a nice glass of wine...since I cook so much, it is the one time I feel pampered.  My go-to comfort food would either be pizza or pasta...true Italian here ;) 

 

 

 

5. This week the world remembers the tragic events of 9/11. Do you mark the day in any way? How do historical events shape your perspective on your personal challenges? 

 


 I always reflect on this day...it changed us forever...I am not sure I make a correlation with historical events and my own challenges quite honestly

 

 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

 



I am looking forward to our first home game this weekend and also decorating for fall...the spirit is real here!

I forgot to mention sunglasses as accessories. I wear them year round when I'm outside or driving. I forgot about pizza, too- such a good comfort food! Love the family pics- you guys are so cute as always :).

I love the pumpkins and mums! perfect addition for fall.

Marilyn said...

Those are perfect comfort foods and I agree, unappreciative people can zap my energy too. Enjoy decorating and the game this weekend!

I'm looking forward to putting out some fall decor. I haven't gotten any mums yet as we will definitely get a shot of summer heat before October and I feel like they'll burn up. You seem very stylish to me, even if you're not shopping new for yourself. Hope you have a great day!

Holly said...

Aww thank you friend- pizza seriously- the greatest invention of all time ;)

Holly said...

Thank you! As much as I love summer, I always love to decorate for fall!

Holly said...

Right? Thanks Marilyn- looking forward to the weekend :)

Holly said...

I feel like we have some more heat in store for us here too Joyce- hopefully the pumpkins won't rot- ha!

Tanya said...

I agree that you seem stylish, even if you're not shopping much right now! Enjoy the fall decorations!

Holly said...

Aww thank you Tanya- so kind!

I get that, as much as the kids keep me busy they do give me motivation and energy.
I think I enjoy my lunch more than dinner as dinner time is always busier for me, at least at lunch time I can take things slow.
I love your front porch. So cute!
