Now Let Me See.....What Are YOU All Up To?!!

        I was catching up on my blog reading this morning (I always try to do that before I do my post for the day...I'm always up sooooo early in the morning!), and I came across so many fabulous things on the blogs that I decided I would share! :-)
     The first thing that caught my eye was this gorgeous photo in my header! I saw it on one of my favorite blogs, A CUP OF JO. The post was entitled Sunrise bubbles. Perfect photo, and perfect title for me this morning! It was taken by the Norwegian Photographer Odin Hole Standal. I think it's just an exquisite shot!! Jo has more photographs of the bubbles HERE!
     Then there was some brain food! :-) I love it when my 'catching up' involves me learning something I was always curious about, but never knew!...You ever see this icon on blogs?!
       Well, this morning, on the blog GUIDEBOOK, I found out what it means! It means that the blog that has this icon has an RSS feed. Basically, it has to do with the way people subscribe to, and read, your blog. You can click on the icon above to take you over to the blog post that tells you all about it! There's also links there for how to set it up and everything!...Good to know, right?!
    Next, I need a baby!! LOL Why? Look at these shoes!!!
       On the blog Elle THE HEIRESS Elle was sharing her Pinterest beauties...things she likes on Pinterest. And these baby shoes were there! They're from ithinksew.com. Aren't they fabulous?!! 'I think so'!!! ^_^
      She had a couple of other things she 'pinned' too!...Continuing my 'I need a baby' theme....
 
       A little poem...It says preceding the poem: "Advice from my mama". And my favorite catch line is, of course, the last...Babies Don't Keep!!...Awwwwwwww! They sure don't!!!....Uhhhh....that's why I think I never had any! LOL
      And who wouldn't love this little Pinterest 'pin' choice?!...Anybody that's yarn crazy, like me, I mean!! ^_^ You have to click on the photo for this cute little yarn wreath. It'll take you to Joann.com where you can find it.
     
      Elle had some other good things she 'pinned' too. Go HERE to see the rest.
      Last, but certainly not least, of what I saw when I was reading blogs this morning, was this beautiful photo on the blog journallingthroughphotos.
       Kamana takes beautiful photographs. I love going by to peep at what she's seen through her lens. It was nice to find such beautiful 'LOVE' there this morning. :-]
     In fact, I get a lot of joy from seeing what all of you are doing. I try to say so, if I can, through my comments.
     Now...What am "I" up to?!!...Take a guess?! ^_^ What else.....CIRCLES......Yoyos!! (Made me think of a song! ^_^ You can click HERE to see which one.)
      This was the last set I had to finish. 10 sets....DONE!!
     After I was all done I had to put the individual sets in numbered bags so I can easily retrieve them for assembling them.
     Then I had to make up my mind about what color would be the main color of the 5. White would get dirty too fast, and too often...Green would have been my color, but not many people carry green bags...purple was pretty, but again, not a color people carry often (especially every day)...red was the color Alittlesprite's bag was in. Gorgeous, but I wanted to see it in another color as well....So, brown it is!!
       So I got started. I connected the first 4. This was no small thing either! I had to figure out what end to start on, and pay attention very closely to the way they needed to be connected. But......DONE!
       That's the process I'm into right now. I'm not doing too badly either!! :-) I'm more than half way done with putting them together...SEE!!!
       So, while I finish the other blog posts that popped up while I was doing this one, I'll be putting the rest of my circles together! Don't you wish you were here to help me?! ^_^
     Now let me see.......Oh Yeah! A poem!! :-) Have a good day everybody!!


Around the Bloggie World

Blue birds, with tails extended.
New tutorial writers too.
New cameras at the ready,
all enhance my bloggie view.

Face sketches, eyes so pretty.
Flower earrings to give away.
And all kinds of crafty candy
also being given away today.

A painting of weeping skies;
a musical horn made into cake;
a miniature calendar
and a snow scene by a lake.

A new haircut, all snazzy;
A butterfly print. It's her first win!!
A Himalayan trek,
and baked cookies in a homemade tin.

I love the things I see
when I look at my Bloggie world.
It's exciting for a writer
whose a curiously nosy girl!
