Somewhat Nuts
11/01/2014
If someone were to ask me . . .
On a scale of 1 to 10 ... just how nuts are you?
I'd probably have to give myself a 7. I'd call that . . . Somewhat Nuts.
Which is why I've committed to blogging every day in November. (Along with several other partners in crime.) It's kind of an overwhelming challenge -- coming up with something to say every day. So we came up with a few "theme" ideas to get us through the overwhelming parts.
Margene is going to look up on Saturdays.
Carole is going to "show and tell" by sharing stories about things in her home on Saturdays.
Patty is going to talk about her dog, Boone, on Saturdays.
(I'm not sure, exactly, what Vicki will be doing on Saturdays quite yet.)
As for me? I'm leaving it wide open.
It's a beautiful (but cold) day here. When I look up, this is what I see. . .
And I'll "show and tell" you about this . . .
It's one of my pottery roses that I "collect" each year from a Michigan artist. I have 4 of them, scattered around my bookshelves. They are beautiful and make me smile -- and especially during the Bleak Months when there are no real blooms to be found in my garden.
And, of course, I can always highlight these two!
They love to play together -- especially when they can work at destroying one of their new "indestructible" toys. (Ha!) (In human language, they have "ripped" and "shredded" and "made a mess." In dog language, they have "killed" and "disemboweled" and "brought glory to the pack.")
So. Somewhat nuts. Sure.
But always open to a challenge!
Nice post! We're all in this together!

I love how you used everyone's themes! I'm really looking forward to reading posts from you every day, but no pressure. :-)
