It's All A Little Fuzzy!

 (Fuzzy Blue Green Crochet Bedroom Slippers, Size 12, by Wuglyees)

      Hello Strangers! :-) Assuming there's anybody still out there reading my 'sometimey' dribble! LOL Well, for anyone still interested...YES! I 'am' still alive! ^_^ I haven't been blogging, but I have been busy!...AND HOW!!

     I've been doing a whole lot of custom ordered crochet work for some very loyal customers. Most of it I can't talk about...yet! But hopefully soon I'll be able to tell you all about it. :-) What I can tell you is that I finally got a week or two to give my fingers a reprieve...and then I got some more custom orders!! ^_^

     No, the fuzzy slippers weren't part of the custom work! ^_^ They were my first new project in a while to put in my shop! {If you're interested in them, you can click on any of the photos to purchase them...if you're a member of Etsy I mean. :-)
 

      I'm actually working on a large afghan and ten pairs of slippers right now. Yes, at the same time! ^_^ 

       And I have lots of other custom work waiting in the wings! And considering what a dry year it was last year, I'm thankful to see this year starting off with a 'BANG!' :-)
 

      Otherwise, there's a whole lot of little things, and a few big things, going on in my personal life. Not stuff I care to talk about! But, hubby and I are still alive and kicking and our faith is intact, my crochet fingers and his new job are holding up well, and Spring is right around the corner. WOOHOO!!! ^_^ That's as much as matters for now!
 

      My memory is sometimes still as fuzzy as my new slippers, so I'm sure there's something I'm not mentioning!.....Uhhhh...if I remember any time soon, I'll be back! LOL Otherwise, have a good week, Everybody. And keep up the good work!! ^_^ Now...a poem and a goodnight! ♥

I Think I Need To...

I think I need to change things up,
flip the script, change direction;
I don't want to lose my love
for that which I have so much affection?

I think I need some brand new eyes,
to see things a different way.
Because the way that I've been seeing
really isn't gonna pay.

I think, because it's me, I need
some creative inspiration.
Some sketches, markers, ball point pens,
and some Disney animation.

I think that this may take some time.
It seems a lot for me to do.
So, maybe I should change my mind.
I'll let you know and get back to you!

What Would A Hat Without A Boutonniere Be?

 (Crochet Fancy Two-Tone Hat by Wuglyees on Etsy)

     Okay, yes...yes I do know how long it's been since I posted last.....sorry. (head held low, but with a semi-smile on my face.) ^_^ I've been busy, People!....Uhhh.....well, busy...and doing nothing...and sick....and napping.....and going on virtual dates with my hubby...and involved in a new project with a very, very good customer...and otherwise just TOTALLY FORGOT I even knew I had a blog!! LOL

     Soooo...what have you been up to?! ^_^ I checked around a little bit and saw some new recipes you've been posting, a sick doggie :-( whose now on the mend, a new medical diagnosis for a young man, and some other funny, funny stuff too! It's nice to know that you guys were just 'getting on with this thing called life too', just like me! ^_^ 

     Of course, my 'getting on with it' always involves some kind of crochet!...It also usually involves some kind of nap and a good meal or two also, but that's a story for another time! ^_^ My latest crochet projects have been ones I'm not taking very many pictures of, like this new hat. (below)

     I'm in love with this hat, and it was totally done this way by accident!! ^_^ A true 'Ugly Wuglyee' creation!...My girlfriend's mom bought some yarn, on sale, and asked if I could make her a headband and a hat for the winter. (It was the variegated black, gray, and white on the top of the hat above). I made the hat and headband, using her own patterns...{I actually made TWO headbands. One was too large for her, so I gave it to another girlfriend of mine. ^_^)...but afterward still had a bit of the yarn leftover. And you KNOW how I hate to waste yarn! :-) So I started one of my 'flip-up' hats and figured "wherever it runs out, I'l just add another color and finish it." :-)
      Was I ever surprised at how cute it looked with the black around the bottom!! ^_^ 
 

     Now I'm thinking that maybe this should be a style that I do my flip-up hats in from now on!...What do you think?

     In other news, my girlfriends hosted a 3-day Open House at MY HOUSE :-) to show all of the crochet items I have around here, and to catch up with some old friends. It was great!! :-) I even sold a few items from my substantial stash!! ^_^ ...Unfortunately, I'm still re-organizing my house back to it's previous condition though....WHATEVER!!! LOL Love and friends before organization, right? :-)

     In other, more exciting, news. I have a new long-term customer! Well...a co-collaborator of style, really ^_^ His company is working on a new high-end menswear line and guess what?...My crochet boutonnieres are being included!! :-) I've been going back and forth with him for a while now, crocheting different styles and colors and textures of boutonnieres, narrowing the look down.
     I've been receiving boxes and bags of different threads at the house, and working up and sending off boutonniere pin after boutonniere pin! :-) It's been so much fun...in between my crochet hat and slipper making of course. ^_^ This is one of the sparkly boutonnieres I did recently...
 

     ...but I'm working on eight new ones right now...all different colors and styles! ^_^ I'm hoping that when the company gets through this process of nailing down particular looks, my little crochet boutonniere flowers will still be on the list! Who knows...maybe my little crochet boutonnieres will go 'High-End' and finally get the recognition they deserve! ^_^ In other words, shouldn't flowers...of whatever kind...always be recognized?! ^_^ I say: YES! And in that case, why not my wuglyees boutonnieres too!! ^_^
     For the time being, I'm trying to keep my expectations low. I've been burned before by ventures that didn't go well long term. But I have to say...I love this new customer. He's very reliable and professional and just a joy to collaborate with! :-) It's really nice dealing with someone who knows and appreciates your hard work.
     His company will be getting off the ground running in January some time I think. So...we'll play it by ear and see how it goes. In the meantime, I'm loving the challenge and creativity of it all! ^_^ And I'll keep you posted....Hopefully more regularly than I have been keeping you posted! LOL
     Okay, I'm off to try to get a little more sleep. It's not even 5:30 a.m. here yet! O_O Do you believe that?!!!!...Yeah. I woke up with a stomach ache from eating a bite of an OLD OLD OLD candy bar....{that's what I get for trying to shop at a 'dollar store' in California on my 'virtual date'!! LOL}...but now, after talking my head off, and using my brand new ergonomic hand massager on my belly, I'm feeling much better! I think I'll just take me another little nap! ^_^ Night, night! ♥ ...I'll leave you with a napping poem. How about that?! ^_^

A Little Doze'll Do You!

I enjoy my sleeping, and a doze,
a nap, and such.
In fact I might enjoy a snooze
entirely waay too much!

At any time of day,
you'll find me like a weeping willow.
Head hung low and dragging,
looking for the nearest pillow.

No, there's nothing wrong.
I'm not depressed. I've still got bounce!
And I can stay awake and be
quite witty when it counts!

But I've been awake for things
when I could've been asleep.
And now my time's so valuable
I don't treat it like it's cheap.

My sleeping, dozing, napping,
is to my life a special key.
It unlocks and refreshes
and dispels anxiety!

Most people try to fill up
every hour in the day.
But me, I'd rather be asleep
and waste it all away.

There's plenty hours left
for all the flit and play and chore.
An hour for a nap right now?!
Why not?! There's 24!!

Another Quiet Weekend Is In The Bag!

 (Pocketbooks & Handbags by wuglyees)

     I had big plans for this past weekend...to wash my hair, write a couple of important letters, make a dessert for a friend, watch an old movie, etc.... But guess how much of it I actually did?!.....NONE of it!! ^_^ Instead...I watched tennis, crocheted, spent some time teaching, watched some more tennis, ate some really good food, finished crocheting my mint green scarf, and watched some more tennis!! ^_^

     Below is the project I'm working on right now. In fact, it's almost done, except for the handles and maybe a big flower on the front. (I'm still debating about that. ^_^)...

      *Yawn*...This whole post is just a big yawn-fest, isn't it?! LOL...Sorry. But what can I say. There's nothing going on in my world that worth talking that much about! :-] Or, should I say, not worth talking about in such a public forum! I mean, I love to talk, but I'm not all 'social-media-crazy'!!! ^_^

     On that note, I'll leave today's post with the winners of the U.S. Open tennis championships! :-) Congratulations to Novak Djokovic...Maybe next year Roger Federer. :-(
 

(US Open (Men's Singles) Tennis Championships on Facebook)

      And congratulations to Flavia Pennetta. And since she also announced her retirement from tennis, have a good life!! :-) ... See you next year Roberta Vinci. After that masterful 'beat-down' of Serena Williams I'm sure we're gonna be seeing more of you!! ^_^ ...

(US Open (Women's Singles) Tennis Championships on Facebook) 

      Speaking of 'beat-downs', I'm gonna go and challenge my husband to ten games of 'UNO'! ^_^ I've got him all to myself for a couple more days before he starts his new job. I might as well make sure he's in the right state of mind! LOL Have a good day, Everybody! ♥

What do YOU talk about?

What do YOU talk about
when you don't have much to say?
A short phrase about the weather?
Or the 'fine'-ness of the day?

Do you ask: "How do you do?",
hoping they won't say a thing?
Or just say: "Call me tomorrow",
hoping that the phone won't ring?

Do you lend yourself to grins,
and slight noddings of the head,
knowing big smiles and eye contact
would make you committed to what they said?

What do YOU talk about
when your 'talker' is 'on the blink'?
Not hardly much at all.
Certainly not much as you would think!

Random 'Stream Of Consciousness' Friday!

     Why didn't I start the crochet gauge check for my girlfriend's mittens with some other color yarn besides mint green?! O_O I mean...mint green, Poetesswug?!!!...Seriously?!...Now I have a pair of mint green ADULT SIZE mittens to try to get somebody to buy from my wuglyees crochet shop!! O_O My practically DEAD wuglyees crochet shop!! O_O
 

     And then I had the bright idea...after the mint green mittens came out so beautiful...O_O...to make a matching scarf! A matching scarf with a pattern I made up!!...
 

     I'm calling it the 'Corded Sweater Scarf'. :-) The name is because of the sweater cuff on the ends of the scarf, and the cord pattern on the edges of each side of it.
 

     When I asked my husband what he thought of it, he said: "What is it?!...A sleeve?"...*Blink, Blink*...Ha! Ha! Ha!...I never even noticed that it looked like a sleeve until he said that!! ^_^ ...WHATEVER!!!! LOL
 

     So what if my creative side runs toward ugly...yucky...mint green...and sleeves!! ^_^ Somebody is gonna love it!!...PLEASE!!!! LOL

     Why does Serena Williams have on a completely different color outfit at the U.S. Open today?!...Did her other outfits float away in all of that rain New York got yesterday?! ^_^ Don't get me wrong though! I like orange and pink and yellow worn all together!! O_O And where would be better to wear it than in New York?! :-)

     Did the hummingbirds get a memo that I didn't get?...that Fall (Autumn) isn't coming this year, or something?! O_O I mean...it's already into the second week of September!! But they're just flying back and forth, dancing and sipping away!!
     Along the same lines though, the bumblebees are all over the place right now too! O_O They're even pollinating my forsythia like crazy! The forsythia that was beaten down to the ground by the rain...that came back upright a bit yesterday...and that was beaten down again last night! Ugh! Thanks to the rain and the bees, I have a beautiful ground cover of yellow forsythia! ^_^

    YAY!!! Hubby may finally have a new job!! ^_^ Of course, due to the job physical, the manual he has to download, read, and pass the test with, and all the other stuff related to starting a new job (stress, scheduling, etc), his mind is gonna be even more frayed than mine for a few days!...And that's saying something!! LOL

     I really...Really...REALLY!...need to pluck my eyebrows!! ^_^ I'm slowly approaching uni-brow, fat-caterpillar status!! LOL It's a good thing I have a good friend with a steady plucking hand, and anti-laughability!! ^_^ And the anti-laughability thing is important!! I mean...who wants a friend coming at them with a sharp object, but with the inability to control a belly laugh that's rising up from their toes?!!! ^_^ NOT ME!!!

     Does anybody wanna sponsor a crochet party at their house, where I supply all of the product, and you take away 30% of whatever is sold?!...Huh?!...HUH?! ^_^ I need somebody to do the 'grunt' work for me and just let me CROCHET!!! :-)

    Lastly, today...hubby and I aren't going out of the country for our 'Virtual Date' tonight. Due to him having to 'cram' for his job test on Monday, we're gonna be keeping it close to home....But maybe some ice cream, cookies, and covering over of all mirrors that might make me have to look at my humongous uni-brow, is in order though! LOL To my credit, my husband is completely aware of crochet sweater scarf sleeves, but completely oblivious to his wife's caterpillar uni-brow!! ^_^ That's why we've lasted for 33 years!! :-) {All happily married flabby hairy people, UNITE!! LOL}

     Have a good weekend, Y'all!! ♥ :-)

My Super-Hero

He has x-ray vision,
but he`s as blind as a bat.
He sees straight to my heart,
but cannot see my fat.

He`s as strong as an ox,
but as gentle as can be.
He`s sexy in his shorts,
and in a suit-a sight to see!

He`s my super-hero,
even though he can't  fly;
He doesn`t drive a Bat-Mobile,
or freeze time with his eye.

But the things that he can do
far outweigh the things he can`t;
and they give the word "Super-Hero"
a whole new slant! 

I Didn't Even Know What To Call It!!!

      It's another one of  those 'A rose by any other name smells as sweet' type of things. ^_^ And yes, I'm talking about the 'thing' in the header photo! ^_^ My girlfriend thought the last of her white and maroon 'packing peanuts' yarn...from the bag of yucky yarn I've been talking about for a few days now!...might make a cute.....uhhh....shoulder thingee! ^_^ You know the thing you can wear over your shoulders to cut the chill on a cold day, or to match your cute dress that has a neckline that's too low! :-) (You know what I mean, ladies!!)
 

     I wasn't sure if this yarn could ever make a really cute...ANYTHING!! LOL But I was wrong...I'm happy to admit! :-) It came out really, really cute!! I wish I had a model to put it on, so that I could take a picture of it being worn!
 

     It's still really thick, and really hard to crochet with, but...thankfully!...I don't have any more of it!!!!! ...***doing the happy dance about that too!! ^_^ ***
 

     I do still have some of the blue, and some thinner white yarn, to work on. I'm gonna be making a smaller hat for one of my girlfriend's daughters. Then......DONE with the 'ugly'!! ^_^ And as happy as I am to be finishing this bag of 'ugly' yarn, I'm getting a very satisfied feeling from the fact that it's not yarn that's being wasted, or put in a bag in the back of a closet somewhere! It has become two crochet hats, a monster brooch, a scarf, and a capelet. YES!!! Capelet!! That's what it's called!! ^_^
       You know how I found out that it was called a 'capelet'?!...I went onto Etsy's site to try to see if I could find others to share with you. :-) I searched 'crochet shoulder shawls' and saw some beautiful 'thingees'.....which they were calling capelets!! ^_^ Then I searched capelets and found a lot more of them that looked sorta like mine!! ^_^ Wanna see some of the work of these talented Etsians?!...Here you go!...

 (Shoulder Wrap, Capelet by amerzarcreations)

 (Hand Crochet Shoulders Warmer by ONiksShop)

 (Striped Crochet Shoulder Capelet Shawl by SkeinandChain)

      Very cute, right?! :-)

     Okay...I'm off to finish watching my tennis match. Serena Williams versus Madison Keys. And it's a good one too!! :-) Have a good rest of the weekend, Y'all!! ^_^ ♥

     By the way, in case any of you were thinking of looking around in my shop (wuglyees), I wanted to let you know that I put my shop in vacation mode for a few days. I'll open it back up soon though. No worries. :-) 

"Ping!"

Do you find that you have lulls?
Times when life just has no 'Pings!'
Times when all that you've been planning
has been done! ... and nothing 'sings!'

You don't know what you should do.
Taking naps seem so sublime!
Knowing, when you look around,
that No! You haven't wasted time!

Lots of things have all been done.
But many things that you could do.
But nothing 'Pings': "Let's do this next!!"
The lull just gets the best of you.

Right now I'll try to ride the wave.
No expectation. Just relax.
Keep flipping books for inspiration.
Enjoying colors, brights and blacks.

Soon I know I'll be off again,
deeply engrossed in some new thing.
I'll get such satisfaction from it.
And that familiar little...'Ping!'

Tote, Tote, Tote.......That's All She Wrote!!

     Say "Bye, Bye!" to my latest wuglyees etsy shop sale, one of my crochet totes! *waving my hand!!* ^_^ It was sent off to a 'soon-to-be' bride. And she loves it!! :-) Her friend referred to her as a lover of handmade items, and kind of hippy-dippy! O_O WHATEVER!!!! If she's a customer for my 'style' I love her!! ♥
 

     Hubby is manning a spot at our friend's 'Tag-Sale' today to try to see if we can have some more of my crochet items taken off of my hands!...along with a few other things too...."Scarves or pocketbooks, Anyone?!".....I said: "ANYONE!!" LOL
 

     I'm working on a 'funky-colored' hooded baby blanket at the moment. I was gonna try to share some photos of it with you today...*In fact, that's why my post is so late! :-))*...but, due to my amazing abilities to organize....Uhhhh...I can't remember where my camera's 'Home' is!!! *Blink! Blink!*....And stop that laughing too!!!...(This is all your fault, Peter Walsh!!!!) ^_^

     In other news, I still have battling hummingbirds at my feeder! :-) Although, why they're battling for a feeder this late in the season is a puzzlement to me! O_O Aren't they suppose to be slowing down and fattening up for their long trip to Mexico, or something?!!...Oh well, they still are a lot of entertainment for me...in a 'why-you-enjoying-those-bird's-misery' kind of way! LOL

     Hopefully tomorrow I'll find my camera...and my favorite ink pen...and my crochet needle case.....! O_O ORGANIZING!!! Grrrr! ... See you then! ^_^

 Change

Oh, I've been so hither thither,
up and down, all here and there.
I guess I'm trying to get a handle
on the changes everywhere.

The changes of the weather
and the times, and of me.
The changes to my schedule
and responsibility.

I'm not complaining...Well not much!
This change is good. I will adjust.
Or you may see me near the highway
 with a sign: "Will Change Or Bust!"

Sooooo...What Are Your Leftovers Of Summer?!

     Okay...so the backyard flowers may NOT look quite as beautiful as this right now!! :-)) But the photos of them...which were leftover in the camera back a while ago, in the early summer when hubby took them, are quite a beautiful leftover of summer. Don't you think?! ^_^
 

    They were a lot nicer to look at this morning than the rainy darkness that I woke up to!! Grrrr! "GO AWAY!!!!" {No need to quote the rest of the poem to the rain. You know 'Rain, Rain, Go........!' That rain knows exactly who I'm talking to!!! Grrrrrr!}

     Rainy days are a good time to do some other things though. Like re-organizing your organizing! ^_^ And that's what I'm doing today. Actually I should say 'that's what I'm continuing to do today'! I started it yesterday.
     For some reason all of my little places where I keep my stuff keep getting MORE stuff!! LOL You know, the little box I keep next to the bed with my 'get-it-quick' stuff in it that I always need to get my hands on quick which use to have just my extra crochet needles, floss, tape measurer, stamps, hand lotion, emery board, nail clippers, etc...now also has batteries, safety pins, rubber bands, a calculator, a hair scrunchy, keys, etc...UGH!
       I was watching Peter Walsh on Rachel Ray the other day...you know, the guy that helps people organize...and he said something that I thought was rather 'Organizer-Profound'. He held up a fork and said: 'If you found this fork in your house while you were somewhere else besides in the kitchen, you would know exactly where to take it back to! Everything in your house should be the same way. It should have a home. Somewhere that you know it belongs!'
      Thus....my organizing!! ^_^ I'm trying to give all of my 'STUFF' a home!! LOL Needless to say.....I'm beginning to think Peter Walsh needs to get out of my head!!! ^_^

     In other news: I finished a crochet sweater, hat, and booties set for a 6-month to one-year-old (or there about that age! ^_^).
  

     If I can get out of my 'mad-organizer' mind some time today I'm gonna list it in my wuglyees etsy shop. :-]
 

     I would love some feedback on it though!...Would you buy something like this as a gift?!! 

     Okay...I'm off to ORGANIZE!!!...something other than my typing fingers and my mind!! LOL Have a good day, Everybody!! ♥

Priorities

Big rocks of life, important things,
decisions in your prime,
require the best that you can give;
Deserve the choicest of your time.

We have to go to work;
and everyone needs time to play;
But without priorities
the speed of time will take your day.

And if you don't believe it,
try this trick, with rocks and sand;
Put rocks into a bucket.
Then fill the sand in, hand by hand.

Now, empty out your bucket,
and then fill it all back up.
But this time, put the sand in first,
the same sand, cup by cup.

The thing that you will find
is that you don't now have the room!
Putting rocks back in is now like
putting a baby back in the womb.

The rocks are goals, priorities,
the important things to you.
The sand can be most anything,
even recreation too.

Yes, Such is the challenge
when you're managing your time.
That's why Big Rocks come first!
They help prioritize the climb.

"I Have A Cramp In My 'Virtual' Calf!!"

 (Roller Skating Giraffes Cards by FreehandCards)

      If you follow my blog regularly you know that my hubby and I go on a 'virtual' date every Friday night. In other words, we spend time alone every Friday doing something, or traveling somewhere, online. It used to be something we did 'in real life' every Friday back when my health was better. But now we just do the same things...'virtually'! ^_^

      Yesterday we went 'virtual' roller skating! ^_^ There's a skating rink up in Vernon Connecticut that we had some fun at 'back-in-the-day', and we hadn't been there in a long, long time! So we decided we would pull out the old...and decrepit!...roller skates and take them for a little spin...to music! :-)

      It wasn't long before we figured out that we're OLD!!! LOL Or, should I say, our bodies aren't as young and flexible as they used to be! Yeah! That's it!!! ^_^ We enjoyed the music...except for a few repetitive bouncy songs that are still in our heads 16 hours later!! LOL But our calves and thigh muscles are sporting some massive cramps and soreness that no Calgon bath will cure! O-U-C-H!!! :-))

      Needless to say, we're thinking that maybe a marathon NAP might be a good date for next Friday night! LOL

      I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately, but I've been doing more focusing on crocheting lately, trying to get some product together to sell in order to try to make some money to keep the bills paid!...Hubby still hasn't been able to find work, and things are rather TIGHT!! O_O We're getting by though. And, so far, all of the bills are getting paid...even if it's by a squeeze every time!! ^_^

      Here's a few of the things I've been making:

 (Orange, Beige and Brown Tiger By the Tail Crochet Flower Necklace Pendant by wuglyees)

 (Handmade Blue and Gold Heart Crochet Beaded Pendant Necklace by wuglyees)

 Barefoot Sandals

      And yes! These are my tired old 'roller skating rinked out' tootsies!! ^_^ Don't say NOTHING!!!! LOL I have no delusions of grandeur when it comes to my feet!!

      I've been having all kinds of fun making these barefoot sandals though!! ^_^ Even my big ole feet can fit them!!...because most of them tie in the back!! ^_^
 

      Before I take off today, let me thank Regina for sharing one of my crochet flower necklaces in her Etsy treasury! ♥

 (Fresh Finds 7 {Etsy Treasury} by Regina Beckers)

 (Dark Turquoise Blue Vintage Rope Knot Button Crochet Flower Necklace by wuglyees)

          It was a pleasure to share the spotlight with all of the other items she chose! :-) This was one of my favorites from her treasury :-) ...

 (Happy Camper Infant Baby Onepiece by CausticThreads)

      Very Cute!! ^_^

      Okay, I'm off to do some research for next week's 'virtual' date night! :-)) Hopefully it won't be two weeks before you see me again!! LOL...

(I like napz tshirt by TeeHeeHeeShirt)

      Have a good rest of the weekend!...and for those of you watching the NBA finals along with us....GO CLEVELAND CAVALIERS!!! ^_^ Or, if you're rooting for the OTHER team, go golden state warriors. Whatever!! LOL...Of course I'm fooling around! ^_^ The games have actually been so fun!!! And no matter who wins, I have thoroughly enjoyed the time with my hubby, with both of us yelling at the tv! ^_^

      The series is tied up, 2-2 right now. Another game is tomorrow (Sunday). The best 4 of 7 will win the series. I'm looking very forward to the games!! :-) I get to yell at the tv, spend time with hubby playing UNO, crochet, eat, or whatever ALL AT THE SAME TIME!! ^_^ It's a total WIN/WIN!! ^_^ ... And then.....a nap breaks out!! LOL ZZzzzzzz! :-))

Be The Best You Can Be

I live my life every day,
trying to be the very best I can,
so that I am not affected
by the degrading words of man.

If "I" know who I am,
then I don't care what others think;
I don't end up in some bar,
trying to hide my pain with drink.

Oh Yes! THEY have opinions
on what THEY think you should do,
on how you wear your hair,
where you should go, also with who!

I nod and give a grin,
respecting what they want to say;
but it's 'my' thoughts that count
at the end of the day.

It makes it so much easier
when I'm being the best I can;
Then I feel good about my choices;
I don't fear words from any man!
