Resurrecting Fun Fact Friday

TGIF to you all! I need something “fun” especially on my blog if not in real life. So, I resurrected a stolen Blog Idea – Fun Fact Friday! Yeah!

*My mother made it home safely from the hospital. She’s in a weakened state, but spirits are really up now that she is home, in her own bed barking out orders to anyone who will listen. (And then apologizing for them, it’s a tad annoying, but if you have an IPod, you are totally justified in using it in this instance)

*I smelled “autumn” in the air yesterday morning. No, it’s not sharpened pencils and new crayons; it’s a cool, moist crispness in the air that signifies shortened summer days. I did smell it, smell around you all, I mean it- you will too! Don't look at me and roll your eyes, do it...you will too smell it.

*While you are all smelling, I’m noticing lately that along with all the other crap I can blame on the onset of menopause – my sense of smell is really diminishing. Don’t tell my husband or any other guy for that matter-as you can imagine the obnoxious gaseous fumes I’d have to endure.

*Sorry about the above but… Really, everybody poos. Everyone farts. Deal with it.

*Really glad it’s Friday – even though the weekend isn’t a time that I’ll be “off”. I’ve still got household chores, some moderate “nursing” and a dinner on Sunday that will be taxing at best.

*I’ve noticed that on some of my favorite blogs lately, there is a guest post – or when someone is gone on vacation, they have someone else post for them – anyone care to share? Anyone want to exchange blog ideas? Email me if you do, this would be a good idea when there are huge Writer’s Block days. That would be Cool huh? And a really good plug for each other’s blogs! Great-it’s a deal then, a dare if you will, post a comment with your email address if you want me to contact you about this blog share deal. Out of a Fun Fact Friday, a good idea arose. Hmmmmm.

You are so funny! I think you are one of those people who just makes life fun for others. I hope someone can make life (or a least a moment or two) fun for you this weekend.
Oh, and I smelled it too! But, it made me cry. I have to go back to work next week to the smell of all those crayons and pencils. Summer's over. I need to suck it up and move on.
If you're free Tuesday the 12th, I have some great fun going down, I'd love for you and Sarah to join in if you're up for it. Karaoke anyone??

I'll guest post if you want.

And Lisa, I've never done karaoke, but I'll try anything once.

Sarah, it's a good time for sure. It's our last "teacher's night out" before school starts. You could hang out with some of your soon to be colleagues in the field of education. Email me if you want to go, and I'll give you the details.
Jackee, if you can come too, it would be great! I think you are one of those people who show up, and the party starts.
