I am sooooo far behind on posts!Most of that is because I am terribly longwinded.
But alas, I am who I am, and that's all I can be.
I'm your friendly neighborhood Oldgirl, LadyLee.Anyway, I thought I'd do a "Food for Thought"/Randomness this morning, and then we will get back to all things Smurfy... I was thinking about doing this every Monday morning off the top of my head, just to wake myself up, to let you know what I'm pondering, and to get the "goo" out of my thoughts. (No, my thoughts aren't always smurfy.)
My Weekend:I had a very nice slow weekend, which means I didn't leave the house. I cleaned out my closet and bagged up old clothes for Good Will, worked HARD on S30's blanket (which is due August 30 for her Housewarming), did a little reading and writing, and

even spoke with
Racer X (which freaked me out, as always. But I calmed myself down, lol)
I, Speedracer, am proud of you, Racer X! Really Proud! THAT phone convo made me a HAPPY Oldgirl. I need to talk to that broad every day, because I always write
very ferociously afterwards. LOL!
My songs for August: Lover's Holiday by Change. I've been looking for this song for a VERY long time. Finally downloaded it out of Amazon this weekend. Change is the group Luther Vandross was with before "Luther" was "LUTHER". That's him singing in the chorus.
ladylee u are wonderful! U always inspire me and when I get down on life or beat myself up u say somthing that makes sense!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to know u!
And yes I have always been the one having those meeting with friends or co-worker! It made me realize what my purpose is! And when I fall short of the stick u and the rest are here for me.
Thanks for embracing me w/o even really knowing me! Have a great day, sorry for getting all Smurfy on ya, LOL
i don't mind you keeping it smurfy up in here, just make sure gargamel ain't nowhere around trying to smash up the joint.
ReplyDeletereally though, this entry is great! i love the highlights you have there from other folks blogs. made for some inspiring reading. :)
Smurfy...that;s good.
ReplyDeleteI had a Come To Jesus meeting with myself not to long again.
ReplyDeleteI like the smurfiness.
"Most of that is because I am terribly longwinded." - puhleeez... now honey, I'M longwinded. In fact, I'm STILL writing my current blog as I post a comment here. Now that's what you call, keeping it smurfy! ;)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore you and I adore this blog! The way you write is so like knowing you that I can't begin to tell you how much fun it actually is ;) You are still my favorite blogger of all time and if blogging had not brought me all the amazing things it has, just getting to have this amazing friendship with you would have been plenty! Now how's that for keeping it smurfy up in here....
ReplyDeleteSmurfy is good when it's done your way. ;-) I love your writing, and though you may not always talk about YOU, we still get a sense, a small glimpse of you through your writing...didn't know that did you? Ha! ;-)
ReplyDelete@Dreamy... My new blogging buddy, keep doing what you do over at the House of Dreamy! And you do get down with the "Come to Jesus" meetings. It's a trip reading about those at your spot!
ReplyDelete@ATLien Nikki... Leave it up to you to talk about Gargamel... I'm talking about the smurfy episode where the smurfs are singing and doing the mean running man... LOL!!
@Southern Black Gal...Ain't nothing like a good Come to Jesus meeting with oneself!
@Terry...I'ma do that, and leave the hard stuff to YOU.
@Frank aka Luke Cage aka Urban Knight... Man! That is what's wearing me down: long posts. If I could come up with some short ones? I'd be rolling. This post here looks like it was 3 posts in 1. But Frank, you ARE longwinded, even moreso than me. I see your stuff and be like, I will read this during lunch- This ain't quick! LOL!!
@That Original Oldgirl Sharon... Uh, Microphone Queen, that was a bit TOO smurfy! LOL!! Thanks for the kind words. You always have something nice to say about me... Now why is that??? I think that is a big sister requirement or something. Yeah, that's it, that's it!! LOL
@Kayla... a glimpse of me through my writing. That's a good thang!!! You've been hanging since the very beginning Kayla... thanks for your support and the kind words.
That's one of the reasons I heart your blogspot ---> cuz you stays keepin' it smurfy!! [LOL]
ReplyDeleteLove the randomness of this post! :-)
I luv La...she is one of the realest bloggers out there.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me smile, everytime I read about you keeping it "smurfy"! lol...great random food for thought post!
"Come to Jesus" meeting?! Yep, I'd say our Internet meetings have helped me tremendously as well. You certainly know how to spell out the truth and share a wealth of wisdom.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how God has allowed a safe place for us to communicate and marinate on the dialogue. I always finish our conversations full and wanting more. They're deep and get to the crux of the matter. It's definitely a time of getting stuff uncovered and keeping it real!
All the while Jesus is invited, and stays long after to help us sort it out.
Thanks for being a conduit of love, hope, and friendship in Christ!
