Wednesday HodgePodge

1. Last time you moved house? Something you've learned in moving house?

I won't talk about the most recent.  Let me tell you about the worst.  It was when my older daughter was still a baby, before younger daughter was born.  The three of us were living in a one-bedroom apartment.  We found a two-bedroom apartment four blocks away.  We rented a truck and got a group of friends together, the same friends who'd helped us move into the one-bedroom before Jen was born.   It was supposed to take a few hours. 

We were still moving furniture at 4 AM, when we called it a night and decided to move the rest of the stuff the next day. 

When we moved out of that apartment a few years later, we hired a moving company.

2. Move mountains, move along, make a wrong move, moved to tears, get a move on, move up, move over, move out of the way, move the deck chairs on the Titanic, move it!...pick one and tell us how it fits your recent circumstances.


Moved to tears...of frustration.  I am not liking the "new normal".

3. What have you been doing to make yourself move (aka stay fit-active) during these strange times?

Not enough.

4. This week's calendar includes celebrations for the following foods-

National Coffee Milkshake Day (Sunday), National Creme Brûlée Day (Monday), National Milk Chocolate Day (Tuesday), National Chicken Wing Day (Wednesday), National Lasagne Day (Wednesday), National Cheesecake Day (Thursday), and National Avocado Day (Friday)

Which one on the list would you be most inclined to celebrate? Which would you be most inclined to skip?

Coffee milkshake?  No thanks.  But I'll take the rest of the list, especially chocolate.

5. Next week's Hodgepodge lands in August! I know!! Raise your hand if you feel like July flew by in the blink of an eye? Now bid farewell to your July acrostic style. If you don't know what that means click here.

July drifts by so slowly

Unhurried, like it might linger until summer's end

Lazy, the heat discourages movement

Yet August is almost here.

6.  Insert your own random thought here.

We're in the middle of a heat wave...
