a halloweenish hodgepodge

it is a halloweenish hodgepodge...i am linking up with joyce over at from this side of the pond...go on over and check out everyone's answers and link up and answer them for yourself!




1. What gives you goosebumps?
singing certain songs at church...hearing someone tell of a moving event in their lives...

2. Halloween-are you a lover or a hater? Okay, that sounds harsh...Halloween-yay or nay?
eh...could take it or leave it!  i don't like all the really scary costumes.  or the ones that make it look like someone is dead/severely injured.  bluedotprincess is going to be a witch this year, but it is a happy witch costume not a scary one!  while i am talking about halloween, what is up with people decorating their yards/houses?  I mean a pumkin, scarecrow, flowers....yes that is fine, but huge fake spider webs and fake spiders the size of a horse, really?  i just don't understand it.  we have a house close to us that has lights and blow ups...it looks like clark griswald's halloween spectacular!


3. Can you respect someone you do not trust, and can you trust someone you do not respect?
no and no! if i can't trust you then there is no way i will respect you and if i do not respect you there is no way i will/can trust you.  unfortunately lots of politicians fall into this category!

4. Apples or oranges? Yes, you have to choose.
i love them both, but i love apples in the autumn. 
 

5. What is something you wish was in your town? (shop, restaurant, attraction, etc)
ikea, hands down!  i love that place!  it probably is a good thing i do not have one in my town otherwise we would be living under the interstate will all my ikea stuff!


6. What non-food item is in your refrigerator or freezer?
dog medicine is in the refrigerator and cool packs for bluedotteen because he has to ice sometimes after football games/practice.

7. Are you at all superstitious?
yes...i wish i was not but i am.  i am ocd too, so it could be a combo.  

8. Insert your own random thought here.
tomorrow night marks the last regular season home game for my son.  time has went by so fast, i cannot believe that his hs football career is nearing its end.  it looks like we will make it into the playoffs, while i am ready to have our friday nights and weekends free again, i am dreading that last game.  


happy wednesday y'all,

  1. Regarding #7-it is a question for me as to where superstition ends and my need for control begins : ) I don't think I'm superstitious but I do like things done a certain way, the same way, pretty much every time : ) Makes me sound crazy but I promise I'm not!

  3. That is so true about songs at church! My niece in Florida is a huge Halloween decorator. We do not decorate but we do have a large web with a spider on our street. We are going for apples this weekend, I can't wait! We have an IKEA about an hour away and that's good or I would be there way to often.

  4. Believe it or not, we have an IKEA in Munich, Germany!! Good luck in the playoffs. I went through this with both of my sons years ago. It is a special rite of passage, I think. Marks an important part of their youth. Enjoy!

  5. Loved your answers and agree about IKEA... I totally understand number 8 ...my son was a senior last year and I remember the last game of his last football season--I dreaded it all fall...he was the kicker and even though it was a lot of pressure to watch, I miss seeing him on the field this year.
