1. St. Patrick's Day lands on March 17th. Do you believe in luck? Are there things you do thinking they'll  bring good luck or  things you avoid because they're considered bad luck? 

I guess I believe in luck but more so in faith. No, there is nothing I do thinking it will bring me good luck. I do however pray. Obviously there are risks that I would probably not take. 

2. Forest-lime-sage-mint-olive-emerald...what's your favorite shade of green? 

Sage looks pretty nice to me. 

3. In Ireland the meal on this day is often a hearty beef or lamb stew served with colcannon (mashed potato mixed with cabbage and leeks). In the US corned beef and cabbage is the more typical St. Patty's Day meal. Will you/did you mark the day with one of these dishes? Baked-fried-roasted-mashed...what's your favorite way to eat a potato?

No, we won't mark the day with this meal. However, corned beef and cabbage is okay with me. We eat a lot of baked potatoes, although mashed can be very good too. 

4. What color of the rainbow best represents your personality/mood today? Tell us why. 

Well yellow is my favorite color and they say it represents growth. I could use some positive growth with my health issues. 

5. Which 'lucky' quote resonates with you. Elaborate. 

 'Luck is not something you can mention in the presence of self-made men.' E.B. White 

'Diligence is the mother of good luck." Benjamin Franklin 

'Luck is where opportunity meets preparation.' Seneca 

'Shallow men believe in luck. Strong men believe in cause and effect.' Ralph Waldo Emerson 

******************************

I kinda like "Luck is where opportunity meets preparation"

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

We are expecting some hot weather. We haven't turned on our air conditioners yet. We always wait until the last minute because they are both 18 years old and know that one of these days they won't work. We have been very fortunate so far. 

We saw James on Thursday night but I didn't get any pictures of him. He wanted Red Lobster for dinner. With my ankle I really didn't want to go out so we door dashed it. James loves shrimp. 

Speaking of my ankle I will post something as soon as I have more information about what is happening. 

I hope your week is going well.
