Hodgepodge Time

1. What's something you never seem to have enough time for? 

I never seem to be able to have time to get my car clean. The inside floor board is full of hay & barn dirt & I drive by car washes with nice vacuums every single day - but I either forget, or I am headed somewhere & dont have time to stop.  Maybe the next warm day on a weekend, I just need to schedule it in. There's just something nice about a clean car!

2. If you could turn back time and relive just one day in your life, which day would you choose and why? 

My mind goes to a few things....

Would I like to do something fun, like my wedding day & feel all that excitement?

Would I like go back to the last time I saw my dad & tell him to get to the doctor to prevent his passing 48 hours later?

Would I go back to high school & change my trajectory a totally different way?

... I've seen too many time travel movies that make this question way deeper than it probably should be.


3. Something you enjoy making that takes a long time to prepare/cook? 

First thing that came to mind is knitting a blanket.  Some of them have taken me MONTHSSSSS.  Especially a queen size or king size one.  All the yarn - all the wrist turns... but how beautiful & accomplished it feels in the end.


4. A time recently where you needed/gave yourself a 'time out'? How do you do that? 

... .I call that "Every Saturday" LOL


5. Something you've done recently that you'd describe as a 'good time'? 

I've loved recently playing Pickelball.  That's a good time to me.  It keeps me moving - its a fun sport - competitive & something Hubby & I can do together.  I need to try & find a local club to join in & play with others.

6. Insert your own random thought here

As you can see, i'm still just struggling lately with blogging. I feel like my life has just gone to such a usual & typical day, it would be a copy, paste, repeat situation on here.  I need to find some inspiration. I need to pull out my camera & start sharing the hundred pictures of my dogs again because we all know everyone loves cute dogs.  

I'm going to admit - the world has just worn me OUT.  It was the start of COVID - the masks, then the political issues, then vaccines & more COVID, all the opinions & rudeness & offensiveness  & now we're facing a world war.  Not to mention a health scare that still has me feeling like the Grim Reaper is tapping me on the shoulder every day. ... yep, the world - life -  has worn me out.

I feel like this gif has been me more than anything the past year...


Just retreating into my own little corner of the world & steering clear of everything & every one.

I need to start looking for the joy & good in the world - in my life.  It's there - & I need to share & focus on others doing the same.  We are in some crazy times & we need some light to shine.  Hopefully, soon enough, I'll feel my own light spark & I'll be back more often here to start shining away.

... or at least get out of the shrubs.
