A Rainy Day Hodge Podge

It is that day again and here are the questions for this week's Wednesday Hodgepodge and my answers.  Want to play along?  It is a lot of fun. All you have to do is answer on your own blog, then hop back over to Joyce's blog by clicking here to share answers with the universe. See you there!

1. Are you comfortable with silence? If you're home alone, do you like silence or do you need regular background noise? Do you seek out times and places to be silent? What's your favorite place to find silence/be silent?  I love silence.  I truly believe that it is golden.  Frank has a big voice and it interrupts my silence more often than not.  My favorite place to find silence is in Cades Cove in the Smokey Mountains.2. October 28th is National Chocolate Day. Can't let that go by without a mention now, can we? Will you celebrate? How? Let's say you can have one of the following right this very minute... a cup of hot chocolate, a strawberry dipped in chocolate, a bowl of plain chocolate ice cream, or a slice of chocolate pie...what's your pleasure?  Yes, to all of the above....but a hot cup of chocolate right now would be awesome.  It is chilly and rainy and my bones are aching.3. How do you feel about blue jeans? Favorite thing in the world to wear or nope, don't own a single pair? How often do you wear blue jeans in a typical week? Do you own a blue jean jacket?  I love blue jeans.  We are allowed to wear them on Friday as long as we are sporting school colors.  I would wear them everyday if I could.  Did I say that I love them!  I also own a blue jean jacket....but I wear it with skirts and dresses.4. Are you superstitious? If so, in what way?  Sort of....I don't walk under ladders, I don't sweep or wash on New Years, I don't like black cats crossing my path....but do I think something will happen....not really....but why tempt fate.5. If you had to come up with a costume using only things you have on hand right now, what could you come up with? A hobo, a fortune teller, or a hippie.
6. What scares you a little? What do you do when you feel scared?  Storms scare me a good bit.  I read the Bible, or something I am reviewing, when it is storming...unless we have lost power....then I pray...and watch the lightening.

7. Perhaps today will be the day I get the junk room straightened so that it is workable..
8.  This is Homecoming week at RCHS.  It has been crazy. We have been on pep rally schedule all week and there has been some activity each day at 2:15.  We have had a Womanless Beauty Padgent (with the football team), the Olympics, a Basketball Challenge between the classes...and we will have a huge pep rally on Friday.  On top of all this we have been decorating our doors for judging.  Mine is perfect for the local Spanish Teacher.  My niece, Ramona, did the crocheted swag at the top of my door and my door is all about Dia de los Muertos....y dice....Dia de los Muertos para Beulah.  I love it!  I have a picture but for some reason cannot get it to upload this morning.  *sigh*
