Deep In The Forrest

Although it has been a slight bit cooler lately than it was last week, summer is still hanging around like the biggest loser at a party where people have given "having fun" their all, but are all about to give up and go driving home plastered (but not quite plastered enough) all because of 'that annoying loser' who ruined the night. It's just time for a season switch. I'm ready... I couldn't be more ready for fall. I've been going through these blah's, ills and down-low's often lately, which I attribute to the weather and the season, but maybe it has just been a tiny bit of 'blog burnout'. Almost like 'Montezuma's Revenge" for bloggers. (Yeah, probably a bad analogy--ooh that was almost like 'anal' haha!!) It happens to us all, and I am just not one to totally give-in and take the BIG BREAK that some opt to.

I made it through, although I was not able to record Saturday as planned because of how badly I felt. I had a headache and spent the entire afternoon draped across my keyboard and stool, half asleep, either that or on the floor and eventually in my car for an attempted ...

Feeling ill, I am WWC'ing you guys from my bed. I'm working from home today, and still feeling under the weather... But that doesn't make me OLD ! Just BLUE ! I detest sinus infections, but this week, they seem to love me... I've prevailed though, I am bringing you few words today, so the pictures are going to have to tell it all... Welcome to this week's Weekly Word's Challenge (courtesy of the ever-popular, youthful and always terrific Tink (from Pickled Beef) . This week's words, as we've said before are "Old" and "Blue" . First of all, this carousel at the Zoo is pretty Old , and has alot of character... it has a bit of blue in it, so that doesn't hurt... I can only think of children and their germ carrying hands grasping the pole as they sneeze and laugh and exchange germs for years on this wonderful horsy. One of the grandmothers at the birthday party is Old and wearing Blue (Party on, and on!) The same grandmother picture...
