Wednesday Hodge Podge

grab button for From this Side of the Pond

Welcome  to  Wednesday Hodgepodge Karaoke... Thanks to Joyce for this week's Hodgepodge!!  You can visit her and join in HERE!

1. In Monday’s post I mentioned I would incorporate the word I was given for letter K into this week’s questions. That word was karaoke. On a scale of 1-10 how excited would you be to find out there was karaoke happening at your next gathering/outing with friends? 10=gimme that microphone!, and 1=I suddenly remembered there’s somewhere else I need to be.  (9)  Depending on the song I'd be  hand it to me!!    Have you ever actually done karaoke?   We rented a karaoke machine for our daughter's 16th birthday party.  I really got down on singing some of the oldie goldies from our era!     If you had to perform karaoke what would be your ‘go-to’song?  Too many to think of..  I'd have to get back to ya! Okay, I’d have to say any Fifth Dimension song! I love Marilyn McCoo!

2. How do you listen to music these days?  Oh, yes, indeed! Favorite app or do you listen the old fashioned way?  Pandora and You Tube Do you have music playing often in your home?  Anytime I can beat hubs to the  airwaves.. He loves talk radio! Is there still a CD player in your car?  Oh, yes!

3. The HP lands on US tax day this year. Or what used to be tax day before everything including filing your taxes was cancelled, delayed, postponed or extended. FYI- filing your taxes has not been cancelled, only delayed for a bit.

Besides staying away from anyone and everyone, what have you found taxing lately?  Wondering how much of this is real and how much is political. I find that pretty taxing!

4. You’re without power so no oven, and you can’t open your frig or freezer in order to keep what’s in there from spoiling. And you don’t have access to take out. What will you make us for dinner?  Peanut butter sandwich and some apple wedges.

5.  I’ve seen this exercise going around Facebook and thought it would be a good one to include in the HP...what are five things everybody seems to love and go crazy for that you personally don’t care for? SNL,  hummus, cilantro, almond milk, most any of the new network police shows.  I do like Blue Bloods. 

6.  Insert your own random thought here., after listening to our governor update today, I am wondering about what he told us to expect.. once this is all over..  “ our new normal”.

  1. Well...in your answer to the last question...our governor here in NY just ordered EVERYONE to wear masks (and I really don't think you want my opinion on this), and he is talking J-U-L-Y to reopen...we have been closed now for 40 something days-no haircuts, no hair color, NOTHING, NOT even dr. appointments...again, you really don't want my opinion, grin.

    I better leave it at that, and I am so glad someone does karaoke. lol

    2. I value life over the state of my hair. Of course, it's long enough now to throw into a ponytail! ;-)

  2. All this for a virus whose stats don't match the hype. No thinks, no new normal for me since it seems to include destruction of civil rights.
    I agree about Blue Bloods but its centered more on that family than just police work. I think that works well. :)

  3. I haven't done karaoke but would like to try it sometime. I still play CD's or listen on my phone. I have to link my music to our Google Nest. Good point on the political news. Great idea with the PB sandwich and apples. Only mine are both in the fridge. I don't watch police shows but I'm guilty of the others. The new normal is not going to be fun at all. I heard masks until a vaccine is available.

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
