Before we start my Wednesday Hodgepodge I just want to take
a moment of silence for the people who lost their lives and for all
who were injured from the tragic bombing in Boston.
My prayers are with them and their families.

1. April 15th is the deadline for Americans to file their state and federal income tax returns. What's a job you do on a regular basis that could be described as 'taxing'?
Cleaning our tile floors, they go on forever......but also there are days when the laundry seems taxing too!
2. I'm participating in the April A-Z blog challenge, and the Hodgepodge happens to fall on Day O this week. In keeping with that theme...olives, onions, oysters, okra...of the foods mentioned, what's your favorite O food?
I enjoy olives.

3. What is something memorable you experienced as a child that your own children (or future children/nieces/nephews) will not get to experience?
Off hand I will say Riverview Park back in Chicago which closed its doors back in 1967. But more importantly I am going to say the most wonderful America that I enjoyed back in the day. A place you were not afraid to grow up in, you didn't have to lock your doors, you could play kick the can outside in the dark and you could make investments which actually grew for your future needs.
4. Term limits for our elected officials...your thoughts?
No thoughts....
5. On April 18th, 1775, Paul Revere made his famous 'midnight ride'...when did you last make a midnight ride? Perhaps the fate of a nation wasn't hanging in the balance, but tell us where you were headed anyway.

Nothing is coming to mind at this time.
6. What would freak you out more...a mouse running across your floor or a big fat hairy spider?
Well both would freak me out! I am pretty good at getting the spiders in our house so it would depend on how big and hairy!!! The fact that a mouse would be really hard to catch I am going to say the mouse.

7. I love it when people ask me__for a recipe__?
8. Insert your own random thought here.
Today you will not find me here today because I am here:
Mark has business to attend to for a few days and I will be enjoying the area. I may not be around to visit with you for the next few days. We might even do the San Diego Zoo. We haven't been there since the kids were little. Mark may play a little hooky....shush, don't tell anyone! This is when it's so awesome having the kids living here so someone is always home with Skye and I can join Mark on his trips.
