WEDNESDAY HODGEPODGE


Volume 343
Thank you Joyce

1. Are you currently operating at 100% capacity? If not, what % are you? What's keeping you there?

No I am not operating at 100% but for me I guess I can say I am doing pretty good right now. Medicine keeps me there. With my COPD at stage 3 only 50% of my lungs work so normal things are never easy.

2.  Have you done your taxes? Planned/booked a summer holiday? Thought about or started your 'spring cleaning'? Besides what's listed here, tell us one task that needs doing before spring rolls around.

I'm going to say "no" to each of those questions. We will visit Amber and Dylan this summer but it is just in the talking stages right now. 

3. What's a favorite food from your part of the country?

Nothing specific but we do love a pepperoni bread from Jay's in Carlsbad, CA. The chains that we might like are in other places across the country. We still love our food from Chicago!! 

4. This isn't a leap year, but let's run with it anyway...look before you leap, a leap of faith, grow by leaps and bounds, leap to conclusions, leap at the opportunity...which phrase might best be applied to your life currently (or recently)? Explain.

A leap of faith for me. I can't explain now but I will when I can. 

5. As the month draws to a close list five fun and/or fabulous things (large or small) you noticed or experienced in February.

I'm going to go with Adam and Gabby's house and how it is all coming together. Each time we visit something new is done. I will definitely do a post about it. Skyping with Amber and Dylan last weekend was fabulous. 

6. Insert your own random thought here.

I rarely feel like I run at 100% any more. I could blame it on age but I know that's not entirely to blame :)

I'm looking forward to the post on Adam and Gabby's home. I love the quote at the bottom..... yes, that's me, but it's usually only one day of salad, if I tell the truth. lol

MadSnapper said...

that diet at the end is what my sister in law is doing. she is losing weight doing it.. starve all week, pig out on week ends.
my specific foods follow me no matter where i live because i love all southern dishes like mother made. except for pizza, she never made that and i do love pizza

Empty Nester said...

I saw that diet on FB yesterday and was cracking up. It so true! Except for the salad. LOL I feel like the fibromyalgia and my age keep me from 100%. It might be time for me to accept a new 100%. Ha!

Your random thought is hilarious. It's fun to see a home come together.
I've never had Pepperoni bread but it sounds good. Hope the rest of your week goes well.

Cathy said...

Love the menu...Perfect!!! I think my 100% is just different than it used to be. As I get older, it takes me longer to accomplish the things I used to do.

Enjoyed your answers today - I know you are heading out and to be with your dad - I hope and pray that you have a wonderful time! sandie

Oh I do hope you get to visit Amber and Dylan this summer. It should be beautiful there. I'm sorry you're operating at 50%. That COPD has got to be a very difficult thing to live with. I will love hearing about the leap of faith when and if you decide to share it! - Judy

Carla from The River said...

Oh your random! LOL!!!
We are planning to head to Great Falls in October. It would be so cool if we both met up in Great Falls.

I love your random thought :) Where do you find these cute things?!
Hope that leap of faith works out for you. Take care.

Joyce said...

Ha-that last bit is a little too true : ) I hope your leap of faith works out. I'd love to make a trip to Montana...maybe one of these days. Enjoy your time in Florida! Safe travels!

Betty W said...

Don't you just love watching a home come together? Our kids are building a house as well and I love seeing how they are in love with it. A big step for them and we are so happy for them!

Do you have difficulty lying flat with your COPD? More and more, Tom's been sleeping sitting up on the loveseat (v. going to bed) to avoid coughing/choking. Hurts my heart, but I guess he's comfortable.

You've got the BEST random thoughts! :)))

Julie said...

Love your random thought for the day! My day to "eat" is Sunday because we're off of our normal schedule and it's just too difficult to eat like I'm supposed to. Enjoyed your answers!

My taxes are done (although not actually paid yet), and we aren't planning a big vacation this year. Maybe visit my sister in Philly. No spring cleaning, exactly, but I've been doing some yard work on the nicer days.
