Happy Wednesday, friends! Let’s do this!! It’s time for Joyce‘s Wednesday Hodgepodge linkup! Here are this week’s questions with my answers in italics.
1. What’s one thing on your to-do list that you want to get done, need to get done, or that must get done before the year ends?
I want to get my closet cleaned out and organized. I am working on it and trying to get it finished before the year ends. We’ll see!
2. December 17th is National Maple Syrup Day…are you a fan? Do you like maple flavor in other food items such as candy, cookies, donuts, oatmeal, hot toddies, coffee?
I am a fan, not a crazy super fan or anything, but I do like it. I don’t know that I’ve had maple flavor on anything else. Maybe a donut..?
3. Time magazine names a person of the year every year. The tradition started back in 1927 with a ‘man of the year’ but has since changed to recognize not only an individual, but also to consider the impact of a group, movement, or idea that most influenced the year. The selection is not always someone or something good (think Hitler in 1938 and Stalin twice). This year, they’ve named The AI Architects as their ‘person of the year’. What say you? Is this a good choice, an obvious choice, a logical choice? Who do you think should have been named person of the year?
I haven’t given it much thought. I mean, the people who made AI happen are smart, so I guess it is a good choice. I’m sure others did things that I would consider more important or influential.
4. What’s a city, state, or country you’ve visited that you never care to visit again? Tell us why.
No offense to anyone there, but I’ve been to New Orleans, and enjoyed it, but it isn’t a place that I desire to visit again. Maybe someone has done and seen things that could change my mind.
5. Next Sunday (December 21st) marks the first day of winter (or the opposite if you’re living down under). What’s one thing you love about this new season?
It’s not hot (and humid here in the South), and there are no mosquitoes!
6. Insert your own random thought here.
It is almost Christmas!!…and then a new year! Am I the only one who gets excited about a new year?
