You blogging buddies are just too good to me.
A big thank you to Darcie at Such The Spot. She so kindly sent me this sweet award.
Now isn't that nice? She totally made my day by my making her day.
I am going to pass this award to:
Jen at Today at Jen's House--she sent me the sweetest email Tuesday and it really did make my day!
Straight Shooter--she's had THE BEST attitude when faced with some scary stuff. I'm not sure I could hold it together at all, and she's done it with grace and humor.
Also to my mom, Beachy Mimi--she did something really nice for me yesterday. And, you know, she gave me life and all.
And then The Fritz Facts has totally stressed me out by tagging me for this 6 Words meme thing.
She must be mad at me or something.
Apparently, this meme originated over an idea that was prompted by the book written by Larry Smith & Rachel Fershleiser, Not Quite What I Was Planning: Six Word Memoirs by Writers Famous & Obscure. It's a compilation based on the story that Hemingway once bet ten dollars that he could sum up his life in six words. His words were, "For Sale: Baby Shoes, Never Worn."
Yeah. This is gonna be easy.
Hmmm. It is the summing up the life part that is difficult. I mean, I can quickly pull out some that sum up my week...
Crazy Queen Stressed Over Losing Hair
Can't Stop Eating Heath Bar Cake
Wondering Where I'm Going To Live
...but that isn't my life.
Oh, how I pray that is not my life.
So here goes:
Laughing My Way Down This Path - Um. Not so much.
Injecting Sarcasm Where It Doesn't Belong - Probably shouldn't be proud of that.
Appreciating God's Blessings More Each Day - This is true. I am doing this.
Should Keep My Mouth Shut More - Amen.
The Animals Took Over My House - Oh yes they did.
Laughing More Often Than Seems Appropriate - Not sure if this is good or bad.
Seeking Comfort A Little Too Much - What's the big deal?
Working Toward Mom Of The Year - Does this come in remedial?
Who Said Normal Is The Goal - Not me.
Thrilled To Be Where I Am - There you go. I need to stop with that one. That's my thing.
(I could keep at this for hours. Really. FOR. HOURS. For sure I will be speaking in 6 word sentences for the next day or two.)
It Was Hard To Choose One.
I Can't Come Up With More.
I HAVE TO STOP RIGHT NOW.
I'm tagging:
My Mom - because it will keep her up for days.
Lisa - because she needs to get back in the game.
Amy - because she will obsess.
The Roost - because she is going on vacation and I'm jealous.
Kelly - because she is so stinkin' clever.
These are the rules...
1. Write your own six word memoir.
2. Post it to your blog including a visual illustration if you would like.
3. Link to the person who tagged you in your post and to this original post http://herebaby.blogspot.com/2008/06/six-word-memior.html if possible so we can track it as it travels across the blogsphere

Can't come up with six words!

You're so funny!! I did this one a while back and didn't come up with anything near as creative.

You are in so much trouble.
I don't have time for this.
What were you thinking, ungrateful child.
My brain doesn't work this way.
Going to get you back, soon.
Showing picture of you and Hamlet!
Please pray because I'm going crazy.

Funny post. I won't even start trying to type my comment in 6 word sentences because I have vacation brain and am leaving this afternoon and so, unless it is on my check-off list to load in the car - I can't think right now. Ha! :-)
P.S. Even though I rarely drink sodas - I do indeed love a yummy Sonic diet coke in the summer time. Nothin' better!
