30 Days of Creativity in September (Day 14) & The Countdown Begins

I have yet to post most of my items for my
30 Days of Creativity in September,
but I'm working on it!
(Click on the
"30 Days of Creativity September 2009"
label at the end of this post for Day 11).

Here is yesterday's above,
my new blog header.
(Don't be fooled, this actually took a while to make and after 5 different versions, this is the one I decided I liked best).

The Countdown Begins?
you may be asking yourself (or not).
No, I'm not already counting down to Halloween.
Well, actually I am,
with the widget in the right column,
but that's not it!

This post you are reading right now is # 990.
That's right, post #
nine hundred and ninety!
I'm only 10 posts away from post # 1,000!

I think that's incredible
and
calls for celebration!
(Once I get there of course).

Thanks Sherry! This challenge helps to keep me going in one way or another creatively. (Even writing). Always good to know another "Halloweenie" as my Hubby calls me! lol And I do believe there's a little witch in all. Fall decorations going up this week, Halloween on 10/1 ~ any sooner and I'd probably be in divorce court, LOL!

Thanks M.J.! I'm thinking of planning something just not sure what as of yet.

Lisa, I've had this blog since 2006. I had 2 other unsuccessful attempts in 2005 and there's another blog I started a couple of years ago floating around which I've forgotten about & done nothing with in Forever! This blog has stuck! You'll get there before you know it! You're doing great!

Thanks Tammy!

2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party 2011 is Here! *Updated*

It's time for the 2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party created & hosted by the wonderful Anna of Frosted Petunias ! My sincerest apologies for getting this up rather late! The adventure that is post Hurricane Irene cleanup & repairs has been taking up too much time recently. (sigh) Things are a mess; I only started decorating for Autumn yesterday and I'm missing Halloween decorations! Luckily my broom is always safe and sound by the front door so at least I don't have to wonder where it is. (Not that it hasn't been known to scamper off now and again - naughty broom). I was afraid, quite honestly, that I wouldn't even get a post up sometime today! I kept hitting dead ends with every other one I tried. But, this morning I sat here at the computer and it flowed. Thankfully! I would have been so disappointed if I'd missed this, it was such fun last year! As some may remember from last years party, while I like the movie, (and love that house!), I love the...

The Time Is Upon Us Once Again!

Welcome Friends! It's time once again for A Fanciful Twist Halloween Party ! Warmest thanks to the lovely Vanessa for hosting again this year. My apologies for not having this up sooner, I've been dreadfully under the weather and my helpers have been more of a hindrance! My lovely kitchen witch Helvetica has given up time off and has been cooking & baking away since last night but the skeletons have been eating everything in sight (damn their bottomless stomachs!) though they won't fess up and the invisible man has been raving on and on every time the door bell rings! I do hope you'll enjoy your visit to Pumpkin Manor and have a Happy Halloween ! I look forward to your return. (Slideshow below - if it plays too fast, hover your cursor on it until the <- -> appear & click on them to view what you've missed).

11:14pm

11:14pm (3/16/09) Watching a documentary Tennessee is so beautiful Head & nose all stuffy Out of ZyrtekD - sigh Want to read but distracted by my clogged head Hubby's snoring a little, restless a lot I worry about him He's so tired, works so much Doesn't get to do what he enjoys often enough (If at all) He willingly took my burdens & made them his own I'm still not used to being taken care of Makes me uncomfortable, guilty I took care of things for so many years Are 2 persons "stuff" too much for 1 person? Even a good, strong man? I know what it is to do more than my "fair share" Though the situation was completely different Is the end result the same?
