Join the fun! Come on over to for the Hodgepodge link-up! |
What's one thing you want to get done before the calendar flips to a new year?
Not so much things to get done before the end of the year, but things to prepare myself for 2025. I'm preparing my 25 for 2025 list and looking over goals for the coming year. I'm also planning out what I'm going to do (and not do) during my two week Christmas stay-cation.
What's something that brought a smile to your face this year?
Aw, I only get to pick ONE thing? I know I mentioned it in my last post and will probably mention it again in one of my 2024 "best of" posts, but my quilting design wall. That flannel and foam board structure makes me grin like a possum.
What do you like on a cracker? Do you have a favorite cracker variety?
My favorite cracker toppings are either cheese or peanut butter. I enjoy eating all kinds of crackers: saltine crackers, oyster crackers, graham crackers, wheat crackers, Ritz crackers, Captain's Wafers, Keebler Club Crackers,...you get the idea. BTW--do Cheez-Its count as a cracker?
A couple of weird things I like on crackers are butter and french onion dip (not together). I know, it sounds gross, but these are holdovers from college. Broke college kids will eat anything that doesn't eat them first. And if you've seen my "before" pictures from that time period, you know it to be true.
Do you have plans for ringing in the new year in a fun or special way? Are you typically awake at midnight on the last day of the year?
Not that I know of. I'm normally asleep way before midnight.
What are three words that describe your 2024?
Insert your own random thought here.
Today, I am thankful for:- A couple of quiet days after such a busy weekend.
- Journals and notebooks.
- Uniball gel pens.
- Books in all forms and the ability to read them.
- Houseplants.
- My beta fish, Freddi.
- The Dry Bar comedy YouTube channel. They specialize in featuring clean comedians (clean, not cheesy). Here's one of my favorites:

Oh my goodness, your three words made me laugh! What a great choice! LOL I also like pretty much any cracker and often have crackers and peanut butter in my lunches. Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteI love the meme! There is a lot of truth in those three words : ) I am thinking about a 25 in 25 list too. I enjoyed my fall 'bucket list' which was mostly a 'get it done' kind of list and was motivating so might go that route for the winter months instead of a whole year's worth of things. Merry Christmas to you and enjoy your break!
