A few days ago Karla asked if we had any special plans for the Easter weekend. Well we all know how things can change at the last minute, though a change of plans isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
So on that note as it’s now Saturday, over the holiday weekend how many of our QOTD family will be:
Coloring Easter eggs? Attending or hosting luncheon(s) and/or dinner(s)? Going out to a restaurant? Going to the movies? Watching or attending a sporting event? Taking a bike ride? Going on a mini-vacation or trip? Other? Dinner with family.
Was this what you originally planned to do? Yes.
“Just because I want to know”:
This is the 2nd Easter weekend since my first post on QOTD?
Did you already know or did you have to check? I already knew.
Fun & Games:
Over holiday get-togethers, are there any longstanding traditions that involve playing certain games? If so, what is the game? We play Trivial Pursuit and laugh at each other.
Today in History: 1789 – President-elect George Washington moves into Franklin House, New York 1861 – Battle of San Antonio, Texas 1896 – Premier of motion pictures (NYC) 1900 – First known occurrence of the word “hillbilly” (NY Journal) 1985 – Coca-Cola announced it is changing its secret flavor formula (New Coke debuts) Not a smart move. 1988 – Federal ban on smoking during domestic airline flights of 2 hours or less 1995 – President Clinton declares a national day of mourning for Oklahoma City I lost 12 friends in that bombing.
