Welcome Kittens & Dawgs! I came through the A2Z challenge. Did you participate in the annual event? If so, what was your theme? At the end of February before I got super busy with my A2Z prep, I shared Dolly on the Sevier County Courthouse Lawn. I wanted to bring you one more view from that day of Sevier County Courthouse’s National Pride.
[tweetthis]I linked up with Curious as a Cathy for some not-so #WW fun & I invite you join the party! #photography[/tweetthis]
Next is my Wednesday Hodgepodge segment hosted by Joyce. This is an excellent way to get to know your fellow blogger and you’re invited to play alone.
- April showers bring May flowers or so the saying goes. Is there a flower you associate with a particular memory? Explain. Orchids make me think of high school proms.
- Last time you helped someone? Tell us how. My helping is limited to my family. I usually am giving advice or encouraging someone.
- It’s National Salsa Month (the food, not the dance) so tell us, do you like salsa? Hot, medium, or mild? Homemade, store bought, or from your favorite restaurant only? Yes, I love salsa. I think I’m a middle of the road kinda gal. Generally, we buy Tostitos brand but I make a good home-made salsa.
- When I was twelve years old… I couldn’t wait to be 13 and then when it happened, nothing changed. I felt the same. There was no magic, nothing grand, zip. Boy, was I ever disappointed.
- It’s the first of May so let’s run with it-first things first, don’t know the first thing about it, first dibs on something, first impression, first rate, first cousin, first string, first come first served, at first light-which phrase can best be applied to something in your life currently or even recently? I guess I have to go with ‘first things first’ because that’s the mode I’m in each day as I strike of to-dos this week in prep for DH’s eye surgery tomorrow.
- Insert your own random thought here. In last month’s A2Z Challenge, occasionally a blog bud threw subjects at me to try my artist prowess on and I thought using my mid-week random response the purrfect platform to showcase these sketches. Marie suggested Betty Bopp because her mother used to draw the cartoon character. I found this image with the Marilyn Monroe quote and decided to give it a go.
I need to give this sketch a do-over. It’s usually when I upload my drawing to my computer that I see my flaws. lol Oh well…when or if I find time to redo this one then I’ll share it with you. Special thanks to my dance buddy, XmasDolly for suggesting the idea!
Yesterday, I shared my newest Battle of the Bands (BoTB) showdown and I invite you to cast your vote for your favorite artist. Tomorrow DH is having eye surgery, so I won’t be around in Blogosphere and ask that you keep him in prayer. It’ll be up to me to usher him to and from his appointment for the next couple of days. Keep me in your prayers, too. In my absence, I hope you stop by to check out my planned post, ‘100 Truths‘ for another chance to get to know me better. 😉 I promise to make things up to you at the start of next week (if not before)! 😉
