Wednesday Hodgepodge

Linking up with Joyce @ 


1.  Share your traditions surrounding the Christmas stocking. 
Growing up my parents always put a orange in our stocking, I always get the Terry's Chocolate Oranges...love them! 

2.  How many hours of sleep do you average at night?  Is it enough?
At least 7 hours....is it enough? Probably could use one more! 

3.  If you had to give up one thing for the remainder of this year what would it be? 
Maybe anything salty...like Pistachios! Or maybe beer! Or both! 

4.  The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (or Wills and Kate as I like to call them) have announced they're expecting a baby. Do you follow news of the Royals? 
I follow the news of  Yahoo and CNN and it was big news! I'm excited for them and love hearing about the Royals. 

5.  For me,  the sound of childhood is__________________.
Laughter, screams and bouncing basketballs. 

6.  Fruit cake-yay or boo? What's your favorite dessert made with fruit?
Yuck no fruit cake here...favorite dessert with fruit is Apple pie.

7. What is one thing you want to accomplish before 2012 comes to an end?
Finding a job.

8.  Insert your own random thought here.
My girl is finishing her first semester, it's finals week and I couldn't be more proud of her. She has survived, thrived and done well, she is happy and adjusted and where she needs to be. As a Mom you can't ask for more....just seeing that smile says it all. 

Happy Wednesday!

I cant believe how grown up katelyn is!!! So gorgeous. I wish that I got 7 hrs of sleep... I hit the tanqueray gin a little to hard last night and my kidney ached alll night. Note to self - stop drinking until this stone is out! ..... and do not drink when you have to work in the am.: )
Happy Wednesday!!

Good luck on your job search. NO, don't give up beer:)

Happy Wednesday Kathy. 7 hours of sleep still isn't enough for me. For some reason I require 8 hours of sleep but tend to get 6. I'm not good at math, but my run down body totally gets it! :-)

Katelyn is looking so grown up in that picture - so pretty!
Not a fan of fruitcake here either but I love apple pie! I'm sure 2013 will bring a fab job for you xo

I love those chocolate oranges. I haven't had one of those in years.
Glad that you daughter is thriving in school. It always makes a parent proud to see their child doing well.

Your daughter is so pretty and congrats to her for doing so well in her first semester. I didn't even think of basketballs for the sound of childhood, but now that you mention it...I can just hear them out on the driveway on a summer evening. :)

Now how many days until she comes home? My parents always put oranges in my stocking too! Hope you are able to find a job in 2013! Will be crossing my fingers for you!

I loved Princess Diana and love following her children. I said laughter too. Best of luck finding a job.

She sure does her mommy proud. :)

I've never developed a taste for fruit cakes, but I know people who LOVE it.

Have a good week!
