This is the last Hodgepodge of 2014! Where did the time go? Joyce has done a fantastic job putting together the questions for us all. She has a busy life and still, she found time to do this. I'm impressed! Join us will you?
1. Share a favorite moment from your Christmas holiday celebration.
The favorite moment from this Christmas was when our grand girls saw their "Frozen Body Pillows" and curled up on the floor with them. Later, I got a video of them sleeping on them for the night. It made me very happy that they liked them so much.
2. What would you say has been the biggest news event during your life so far?
So far, I think that traveling in space has been the biggest news event during my life. The fact that we traveled to the moon, and have landed on Mars with the Mars Rover to cover the planet in search of anything. I love that someone has the guts to ask the question "What if?" And then come up with a way to answer it. I love the science news that we hear so often.
YUP Space Travel is the event that fascinates me.

3. The Pantone Color of the Year for 2015 is Marsala. What say you-like or no like? Would I find this color anywhere in your home or wardrobe? Will you add something in this shade to either?
OK, I had to look this up because I didn't know what the color was. It's beautiful!
It's a pop of neutral and I really do like it. I don't know if it's in our home but I will get some tops in this color. Reminds me of blush make up from the past.
4. Would you rather meet your ancestors or your great grandchildren? Explain why.
WOW that is a hard question. Meeting my ancestors would allow me to fill in the blanks as to why I am the way I am but meeting our great grandchildren would allow me to know if any of us is in them. I choose both. It's my blog, I get to pick the both.
5. Share one life lesson learned in 2014?
Good Health is something that I took for granted. When the doctor tells me that I'm healthy I still laugh. Healthy? Then why am I sitting in the Oncologist office talking about living with Cancer. Define Healthy Please? So the lesson I learned, I'm better off than many and not as well off as some.
6. What was your best or favorite purchase made in 2014?
We didn't buy a lot of things this year. We don't need a lot to make us happy so I guess the purchase we made was our vacation in the fall. The kids were all back to school (no lines), the weather was warm (unseasonably), and the company (Hubby and dogs) was the best. It was relaxing, refreshing, and just plain wonderful.
7. What is one thing you're looking forward to in the new year?
Getting back to my pre-cancer weight. I have a plan and pray that God will bless it and allow me to get back into shape. I also want to get back to blogging on a regular basis.
8. Insert your own random thought here.
We don't have any snow, and the last few weeks it's been down right warm (in the 40's) for NH. However, it's NH and so the cold weather will return. In fact it did on Tuesday and will remain with us all for awhile. But you don't shovel cold and we have the pellet stove going keeping us all warm.
