[quote=JustJoy;18850336]I hope everyone had a great week and is off to a wonderful start of the Easter weekend.
I’m posting Saturday’s QOTD a bit early since some folks may have plans involving travel, so lets get started with . . .
Today's Questions:
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?We will be home enjoying a spiral ham.
Was this what you originally planned to do?It was either that or go out to eat.
“Just because I want to know”:
This is the _5th____ Easter weekend since my first post on QOTD?
Did you already know or did you have to check?I knew the year I joined C-D.
Fun & Games:
Over holiday get-togethers, are there any longstanding traditions that involve playing certain games? If so, what is the game?No.

Going on a mini-vacation or trip? Other?Not a thing. Staying home and relaxing. Mrs. Tek just returned from yet another business trip and she's exhausted.
Was this what you originally planned to do?Yes and no. I was going to some work on the Sun Setter Awning, but I had a major muscle pull in my back yesterday (I have no idea what caused it) so here I sit with a heating pad, Bengay and ibuprofen.

Word of the Day - Players Choice

Today is:
Coloring Day
Good Eats Day
Smile & the World Smiles with You Day
Sunshine on Your Shoulders Day The sun shines? Where?
I love this post of colored eggs... it reminds me of Easter yester-year when I was a child and painting/dying eggs as we practiced our Easter speeches for the Easter program at church were a traditionally big deal. And one could always count on a new pair of white patten leather shoes, a slip with ruffles, a white pair bobbie socks with a single pale pink or baby-blue bow on each sock and frilly dresses to match. And the day would always end in a huge feast. It's sad really in away the old traditions have not survive. I have not girls to dress or boys who are interested in coloring eggs. Everyone is grown up way too much and I don't even think they have Easter programs at church anymore. Yet, I am thankful tomorrow everyone will be off work and we will attend church together and go out and eat dinner afterward. Happy Easter allyall
