A week or so ago my good friend and fellow blogger Debby Ray from My Favorite Things
contacted me about joining in on a blog tour.
She would feature me and I would answer 4 questions and then I would pass the torch
to someone else.
My first thoughts were NOOOOOOO!!! I am the worlds worst procrastinator and if you
give me a deadline I can barely function.
But I love her so what was I to do?
So I worried and worried and wrung my hands and couldn't watch t.v. because "I had a deadline" and
I couldn't concentrate on Quick Books because "I had a deadline" and my husband would say let's go
somewhere and I would say NO...I've got a deadline!
So here I am after having a full week to do this, I am just starting this post and it's Friday Saturday!!!!
To make matters worse I didn't let my poor friend that I picked to go after me know anything until today!
She was like "ummm....sure......can I have a little time to get my links together for you?"
Sweat popped out on my forehead and I was like "uhhh.....sure."
Now if you do not know my friend Debby Ray from My Favorite Things at
http://debbysfavoritethings.blogspot.com/ just take a look at this.
Is that not beautiful?!!!
This is her own photography!
And....
isn't she the cutest?!!
Please visit her....you will not be sorry. I stumbled upon her blog when she made her very
first post. I couldn't believe that she had already figured out how to make the cutest
header I had ever seen!! And then I read her fabulous post with her fabulous photos!!
You will all be as smitten as I am.
I am sure of it!!
Okay, so here is the first question:
Ha! This piece of course!! Nothing else is in this head but finishing this assignment!
I am NOT a person that thinks ahead.
I never have blog posts ahead of time just sitting and waiting to be posted.
I blame it on my medical condition......couchitis.
I explain that here....smile99999.blogspot.com/2014/03/doctors-orders.html
So next question!
First, I'm pretty sure I don't fit in any category out there.
My genre is unorganized, messed up, I Love Lucy-ish, embarassing, moments in my daily life.
I actually had a blog party host tell me she featured me because she said "who in the
world would put a picture like this on her blog?"
And that was a good day....:)
I'm always confused about sharing my posts in blog parties because the titles are usually like
Monday's Show and Tell
Tuesday's Terrific Kitchen
Wednesday's Wardrobe
Thursday's Summer Parties
Friday's Food Recipes
Do I post the above photo to Wednesday's Wardrobe?????
Really?
I need parties like.....
MONDAY'S MADNESS
TUESDAY'S TOTAL MELTDOWN
WEDNESDAY'S WACKINESS
THURSDAY'S THOUGHTS ON WHAT WENT WRONG TODAY
FRIDAY'S FOOD FIASCOS
Now those are parties I could participate in!
I did have friends to suggest me hosting these parties.....pshhhhh....
do you not know me?
I am typing this assignment at the 11th hour!
Do NOT put me in charge of anything!
Moving on....
Now that's a great question.
Many times after I push "post" I think "why in the world would I share that?"
And for awhile I really thought about giving it all up because I knew I didn't compare with
most other bloggers.
But then one day I sat down and started reading my old posts.
It was like reading my diary with photos!!
I loved how it brought that certain day right back to my memory!
So now I really post for myself......it has made me really enjoy blogging again.
I wake up.
Haha...that's it.
I wake up and start my day.......
usually something crazy, wacky or embarrassing
happens on most days.
I will then turn my life lessons into stories or maybe just list my "knowledge" to share with y'all.
For example...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ten Things That I Know
1. I don’t want to live in a world without sunshine.
2. One step forward and two steps back will get you nowhere.
3. Black yoga pants are responsible for me gaining weight.
4. Cold and wet weather are responsible for me gaining weight.
5. I will blame others for me gaining weight.
6. Biscuits and syrup are a great couple.
7. If your C-section scar is deep and wide and you didn’t have a C-section then you may need to diet.
8. Having skinny friends is like being friends with fish----they like the ocean, the river and any pool of water that you have to wear a bathing suit.
9. Fried fish is good.
10. Your belly should not hang out the leg hole of your bathing suit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also have quite the imagination....
I have a soap opera series about my chickens,
Rod Stewart and the Kardashi-hens
and my other chickens called
You should tune in sometime!
But even with all the wackiness in my life I still get to enjoy God's creation and all of it's beauty
and I do enjoy sharing that also.
So there you have it....
you now know that I am a little loco....heehee
