The Sassy Steel Magnolia

    I can only sit and laugh [because when there's nothing else to do, just laugh] at the fact that of course when I set a goal to blog every day for one month, a flood gate opened and life turned a bit upside down. It’s how my life works sometimes. Ok, all the time. But alas – I’m back. After a week of going dark [hardly any online activity], I’m slowly trying to get back in the game.

    Things got pretty crazy this past week. Especially over the weekend. There were a lot of questions thrown at me – that I threw at myself – which led to a lot of contemplating, which steered me in the direction of worrying, which landed me in Lost~ville. And then as if someone Upstairs were listening to my self-directed conversations, this song came through my speakers Monday afternoon. And while I still find myself with a heavy head, it’s not quite as heavy after listening to this one on repeat for the past few days ….

    James Morrison – Undiscovered

    I’m not lost …. just Undiscovered.

    Devil in Disguise by Elvis Presley

    Honestly, I think what we have here is a breakdown in communication ….

    at least that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it.

    I can’t explain it. Most ladies I know can’t really explain it. But alas – a day spent lazily lounging around doing near nothing other than finding yourself lost in a suck-you-in, drama-by-the-minute, Lifetime Movie Marathon, classifies as quite the day indeed.

    Whether it’s the urge to find out if Candace Cameron will conquer her battle, or if Tori Spelling will survive, there’s something about those little two hour original films that snatches you in like a Cynthia Rowley sample sale. Irresistible, will leave you wanting more, and kicking yourself if you pass it by.

    It’s a year-round March Madness for women! A fascination and phenomenon better left undefined.

    Oh the sweet, simple bliss this network provides to so many. What would my rarely occurring, much needed lazy days be with out you? Long live the Lifetime!

    *And I still managed to make it in time to hit my post a day quest! Week 1 = solid. Stay tuned for more of May: The Month of Mixed Wires, dolls!

    Mah-velous Magnolia

    Because there’s no Mixed Wires when it comes to Maxine.

    And sometimes she says it better than we can ever hope.

    TGIF, no?!

    The Mah-velous Magnolia badge will be awarded each Friday to a selected lady {or a few..or fellas..we’ll see} who has had an impact on my week.  Who knows — maybe you’ll be up next.
