CRAP! I Missed A Day!!

Oh, the horror. 
Oh, the disappointment.

I missed a day of NaBloPoMo. 
A NaBloPoMo FAIL!
Oh The HORROR
Oh The HORROR by hybristophilia666 on Polyvore
It's not like I didn't know it was going to happen. I did. I had a very busy day and after dinner last night I just wanted to relax. I sat on the couch, Kindle in hand new book waiting, full belly, family all around chillin', and said "Oh CRAP, I didn't post a blog today!"

 Then, I turned on my Kindle while hubby found a movie for us to watch (I can read and watch a movie at the same time. Multitasking...you Mom's know what I mean), I settled in on the couch, and the thought of blogging evaporated.

 It's not that I am short of ideas! I have 4 drafts going, and I even have handwritten in my journal ideas for other posts. If NaBloPoMo right after NaBloWriMo has done anything for me, it has got me to write every day, whether I actually post or not. 

 But last night, I just couldn't bring myself to force a post. I would have struggled to post something most likely stupid, and meaningless. It would be forced, and I think we all can agree forced writing sucks.

I still wrote yesterday. In fact, I find I even THINK in writing terms, do you know what I mean? I mean, as I think, I carefully pick the words that would read well, sound good, and convey the feeling I am having at the moment, and before I know it I have compiled a full sentence in thought. It is actually kind of weird, to think in sentences, and even re-think the sentence in a better way. 

 But I guess that is what happens when you make writing part of your future goal, and incorporate it into daily activities. You are writing your thoughts. Do you find yourself doing that too?

 What will I do when I am not obligated to post every day? Well my fine readers, you will have to keep reading to find out!

 You will have to come back, again and again and again, read my blog regularly, until you find out.  Muwahahahahaha!!

No wait, come back after you find out, too. I will still blog, I will write meaningful and interesting posts. So keep reading, kay?

    Oh no! But you made it most of the way and still wrote today so I don't think you totally failed! Where as I have not felt like it and HAVE posted random things of boring crap at least in my opinion! Thevend result still the same, something was written. :)

    Just keep writing!

    I find it really hard to post over the weekends and I actually did the "Oh crap, I haven't posted yet!" on Saturday. I've just made sure to post the next day!

Walking on Wednesday - My Money Tree is Dead! What does that MEAN??

-

It's not the kind of money tree you are thinking.  I wish it was. But it is not. It is technically a Pachira . The name supposedly comes from a story of it's origin.  A poor man prayed for money, and then found this "odd" plant. He took it home as an omen, and made money from selling plants grown from it's seeds. I bought it at a grocery store when we first moved back to the states, in 2004 . We had just moved in to our own house, after being displaced from Hurricane Ivan , and our new place needed some green. This was the biggest plant, for the least amount of money , at the grocery store. It said it was ' foolproof ' , and that is the right plant for me ! I thought the name was an omen too, hoping it would bring good fortune, meaning a little money .  It decorated our living room in New York for almost 6 years ! During that time, about 2 years after I bought it, I tried to root it from clippings just for fun. It worked , and I grew another money ...

Music Monday! Just Dance

A surprise suggestion, this song was. I asked a friend-who-is-family for some ideas, as I wanted to do a Music Monday this week, but was having trouble picking a song. Just didn't have any that felt right at the time. So this friend, who by the way is someone we (hubby first actually) 'met' online. Communicated for quite a while before actually meeting in person. But you just know when you click with someone and we are going on over 8 years of friendship, I believe, though it feels like we have known each other forever. She has been a wonderful addition to our extremely small circle of friends. She is 'auntie' to my kids, she is who I vent to almost on a daily basis via messages, she is always willing to listen unconditionally. And that, my dear readers, is hard to find these days. She became family. Source So after complaining I was not inspired by any songs, she said she would see what songs came on over dinner with her Mama, and give me some ideas. Her Ma...

Raige Creations turns 1 year old next week. To celebrate, Raige is doing her FIRST GIVEAWAY! I can't believe a year has passed, and how far Raige has come. Certainly, the handmade community and its supporters had something to do with Raige not giving up, and Raige's customers are just the best! So to honor all you wonderful people, Raige is happy to give. What to give, you ask? 3 New Toekini's  TOEKINIS OF COURSE Toekinis have, by far, generated the most buzz at Raige Creations. It seems fitting to celebrate with one of them.  Every time I have Toekini's on my brain, I think "Life is good today" and this song from Music Monday  gets stuck in my head.with these lyrics: "I've got my toes in the water, ass in the sand,  not a worry in the world ,  a cold beer in my hand. Life is good today, life is good today." But life is good today, even if it is not yet summer here, and to celebrate - the giveaway will be your CHOICE of TOEK...
