One Year Ago Today

Intrigued by Mama Kat’s prompt about what was on my blog one year ago, I decided to check it out. The closest date in my archives was December 4th. The topic? Yurts. Seriously, yurts. Check it out – http://www.themeaningofme.com/your-what-hurts/.  I’ll hang out here while you read and learn about yurts. So back to Mama Kat’s…

Back from the Dead

Hello, friends! It’s been a while… I definitely took a little unexpected blog break for the last several days. First, we were heading into the holiday and everybody knows what kind of craziness that brings. Then, it was the actual holiday so there went the end of the week. Plus, in the midst of the…

TToT – Late to the Party Edition

Happy (end of the) weekend, friends! I was really excited about the TToT 25th weekaversary party…and somehow I am here at the eleventh hour (oh, shocker) finishing up my list.  Hey, somebody has to be the last to arrive, right? I’m kind of drained and not feeling too hot right now, so this is going to be…

Oh What a Song!

I am working on another prompt for Mama Kat’s Thursday link-up, but it’s going to be late. Or I won’t finish it. We’ll see. In the meantime, I can absolutely think of an “old school” song that makes me happy. I have loved it my whole life. OK, well, since I was about five years…

Wordless Wednesday with Kidzilla

For your viewing pleasure and a snappy little Wednesday Earworm, we offer you Kidzilla’s current favorite song and video. We first saw this on Lizzi’s blog and Zilla has loved it ever since. You’ll smile and cry and laugh all at the same time. Have a great day!

A Double-Liebster, Please…

…and yes, I would like fries with that, thank you! I am honored. Twice-honored. In a moment of generosity (or perhaps insanity), Lizzi passed a Liebster award my way late last week. At first, I was confused. Mostly because I had absolutely no idea what it was. Shows you how knowledgeable I am about the…

Ten Things of Thankful – Not Much Exciting Edition

Isn’t that the worst title for a post? It’s like I’m inviting everyone not to read my post because there’s nothing going on. But really, that’s kind of what the week felt like. It took a long time to get this TToT post going. It’s not that I don’t have anything to be thankful for…I guess…

What My Name Does NOT Mean

OK, so I totally blew off Mama Kat’s weekly writing prompts because I simply could not get inspired. The best option for me this week was the prompt about the meaning of your name and whether it suits you. Every website, bookmark, or framed art I’ve ever seen that explains the meaning of my name…
