Now, What was I Feeling Again?!!

      You ever have a day start out with you kind of apprehensive about what's coming?! I have! In fact, I'm kinda feeling that way today!...Joyce's little pooch (from the blog A Perfect Beginning) was feeling the same way too!
     I'm not gonna get into the details about why I'm feeling this way...aren't you happy?! ^_^ Suffice it to say, I'm thankful to have crocheting to distract me...and your blog posts, full of all kinds of interesting and wonderful things! :-) Maybe after I get through looking around I'll feel better. Wanna come along?!...
       WOW! Theresa, of the blog All Of Us, and her whole family are on a HUGE vacation! They're in Italy right now...I think. They were in Paris before that, and  Annecy before that, Old Town Alexandria, and Washington D.C. before that.  And guess where they started out at?!...Hollywood!
         Their daughter, Skyar...who has her own blog too, called Skywriting,...
           ...has just gotten a pretty big opportunity! She's gonna be starring in a web series, a pilot show. Irene Dreayer, executive producer of a very popular television show in the U.S. called "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" and "The Suite Life on Deck"...{which I'm afraid I had never heard of before....Sorry. O_0 I have no kids, remember! LOL}...is gonna be working with Skylar on a pilot show called "Ask Skylar".
     She says "It's an interactive show where kids/teens send in their questions and Skylar provides answers.  Think "Dear Abby" for kids mixed with a little iCarly."...I don't know what any of that means, but it sounds exciting for a young girl to be asked to do. I'm just glad I'm not the parents who have to make all the decisions about things! That could be a wild ride!
       They're not the only ones traveling either! I follow the blog Art Daily: SOiNTOiT. They live in California. Or should I say 'LIVED' in California!...They just moved.....to Fussa Japan!!! Her next post is suppose to be from there...whenever that is. 
       I can hardly wait to see what kind of turn her beautiful artwork will take...
         ...when it's coming from the "Land of the Rising Sun"!!
         I want to say a big hello to Dale, of the blog Savvy Spice...HELLO!!! ^_^ She's a new follower to the backyard, and I'm a new follower to her blog too!...It looks like she's the one to follow for all things young and trendy in fashion right now. And since I'm not young...and nobody would call me fashionable these days...I thought it might be a good idea to keep my eye on what people are wearing...especially since I make, and sell, trendy-type crochet jewelry in my Wuglyees Etsy shop!
       I found something else pretty cool on her blog too. You ever see a sand octopus?!!
         People's talents never cease to amaze me!!
        Now, this little guy, who I saw on Creating Trouble's blog,  must have a story....
        ...but I don't even care what his story is! He just makes me feel better to look at him!! :-) How can you not smile at a handsome guy in a Penguin suit?! :-)
       And last, but not least, how about some dancing?!
      I saw this print a few days ago on A Cup of Jo's blog. Isn't it wonderful?! :-) It's a print that you can buy too! If you're interested, just go HERE...I think I'd be looking for 'feel good' music all day long if I had this up on my wall...I mean MORE than I do now, that is!! LOL
      Maybe this would fit the bill...


       I feel better now! :-) How about you?! 
          He does too!! ^_^ Have a good day Everybody!! I hope some dancing is included in it!! :-)

 Dance

Life is a dance, they always say.
It has a rhythm and a rhyme,
It makes you set a pace, while it
flows in the stream of time.

And dancing has expressions
that I think are kinda neat,
like dancing eyes and dance of joy,
happy dance and dancing feet.

Whatever dance you do today,
I hope life pleases you.
It really doesn't matter how.
Just dance! I hope you do!

  5. Wow, thank you for mentioning my blog - was just coming along for my daily read and ... I recognise that penguin!
    Sorry that you're having one of those days but glad we've all managed to cheer you up a little. I've made Andy get Happy Feet for me to watch in my total boredom of being stuck at home... so think I am about to watch it now!

  12. Shelley, Thank you. Peeping around at what everybody is doing is one of the nicest things I do with my day! I get to travel the world, go on vacation, go to the beach, see good food, and learn new things...all from right here in my house!! :-] Oh Yeah, and hear and listen to good music. We can't forget the music!! ^_^ Have a good day, and thanks for your nice comment. :-)

  17. How nice is that artwork! Something nice & bright to cheer up an winters day.
    Just when I was thinking of winding down (my brain is feeling a little sleepy) and going to bed I have thoughts of dancing running through my head. Perhaps tomorrow I might dance about & embarrass the boys :D
