The assignment

The wonderfully wicked Kyra tagged with her own MeMe… It took me a while… I guess the point is to give old and faithful readers a walk down memory lane.. and new and cherished readers a glimpse into my journey. Here goes. First, I have to post the rules.. So, here they are: Go back through your archives and post the links to your five favorite blog posts that you've written. ... but there is a catch: Link 1 must be about family. Link 2 must be about friends. Link 3 must be about yourself, who you are... what you're all about... Link 4 must be about something you love Link 5 can be anything you choose. I think this is a great way to circulate some of the great older posts everyone had written, return to a few great places in our memories and also learn a little something about ourselves and each other that we may not know. Post your five links and then tag five other people. At least TWO of the people you tag must be newer acquaintances so that you get to know each other better.... and don't forget to read the archive posts and leave comments! Link 1: Family… it starts with a mother’s love Link 2: I made friends for life accompanying Mom on her journey … and I grew more than I ever thought possible. Link 3: I relived memories with this one… Cruisin… Link 4: A post about something I love… well.. love! What we should all strive for. Link 5: This post earned a me a very humbling nod… a post of the Day by The Rising Blogger… so here it is: a day in my life . As much as I love Kyra, and want to do the whole thing as per the rules (who am I kidding.. rules?? HA!). Besides, I don’t think there’s anyone left to tag. But, if you find yourself wondering why you started blogging in the first place.. what kept you blogging.. this is the MeMe for you. Hope you enjoy, Love you all more than my luggage! Hugs, smooches and gropes!

The best laid plans...

I was tagged by Kyra the Lusty Wench over at The 108 to do a meme she concocted... I knew it was going to take me a while so I had planned to sit down last night in front of my puter as I searched for some posts to drag out for her... HA! Seems my Internet supplier forgot to rotate something or dust the inside of some router or something.. you got it.. NO INTERNET! I wasted 45 minutes unplugging the friggin cable, turning the power off, powering the puters down and starting them back up... trying to call the friggin techs (you know.. the dudes who man the Helpless Desk over in India)... I watched some boob tube (woooooooooo! a FOXTROT)... tried to read a bit.. got the mouse twitch and kept trying to right click the man-wand (TV remote for you man-challenged individuals).... finally I gave up, grabbed my stuffed monkey and went to bed. It came back in the middle of the night.. I checked. I'm sure you're happy for me. So.. this clip illustrates exactly how I felt (I'm the dog by the way)... yup... I'll try and get to it tonight... unless the morons at the power company decide to test their voltmeters and short the friggin grid out... Love you all more than my luggage! Hugs, smooches and gropes!
