HPW- 1/2/13


Well there is barely an hour left of Wednesday and I had almost forgot to do my first HodgePodge of the year. 

1. How did you ring in the new year?

Pretty boring. It was just myself, my oldest daughter and her boyfriend. Plus the house animals. Normally I like to go to a watch night service at a local church but my car has been broke down for 2 weeks now so I was stuck home. Thats ok though. I praised God for getting me through 2012 and thanked Him for what He's going to do in 2013.We did watch the ball drop but it just wasn't the same without Dick Clark and I was very disappointed in the majority of the music choices. Taylor Swift was the only one I liked.

2. What is one thing you are looking forward to in 2013?

Mostly just remodeling this trailer. It needs a lot of work and I knew that when I bought it but life interfered and I am now ready to get back to the work.

3.   Steven Spielberg is quoted as saying, 'All of us every single year, we're a different person. I don't think we're the same person all our lives.' What say you? 

I totally agree. I can't imagine anyone who stays the same all the time. I like to think I am improving each year, growing more like Christ and showing more love. I am becoming more comfortable with my life and more trusting of God's guidance. I think everyone changes in their thought patterns, beliefs, and actions as they keep living.

4.   The Pantone color of the year for 2013 is emerald green. Like or dislike?  Do you already own something this color?  Will you add something in this shade to your home or wardrobe in 2013?

Green has always been one of my favorite colors and I love the rich jewel tones of emerald. I own several items in this color and probably will buy a few more. 

5.    Speaking of emerald...what's your favorite gemstone?

I have always loved opals but I also love the flash of diamonds. 

6.  Share a favorite book or movie from 2012.

Honestly I can't think of either one that stands out for me right now. Probably later on I will think of a ton but drawing the blank right now. I spent a lot of the past year in a fog so thats my excuse.

 7. What is something you want to tell yourself at the start of this brand new year?

I want myself to remember that no matter what happens, God's got this. Don't stress, trust Him and keep on keeping on. 

8.  Insert your own random thought here. 

I waited too late and its almost bedtime so my only thoughts are good night, God bless and sleep well.

We were boring too, but I was glad! =) After travelling, and having to come home while suffering with the flu (5 1/2 hour drive each way), I was glad to stay home!
Hope you have some fun with your remodel-be sure to check Pinterest! =)
Good night. =)
