If you haven’t noticed that I have a bit of the writer’s block, I give you this:
My last post was about a trip that I took six years ago. SIX YEARS AGO.
I actually have the blahs on several levels, none of which I’ll bore you with at this juncture. But I have talked to a couple of friends who share in my blah-ness, which leads me to think that part of the problem is that winter has finally gotten the best of us all.
Spring? OH, SPRI-ING? WHERE ARRRRE YOU?
We’re headed to Mississippi this weekend for a special family celebration, so hopefully I’ll regain my bloggy wits after I have a chance to listen to some stories, snap some pictures and last but not least see “Martie” and Sissie in action.
In the meantime, check out these fine bloggity people:
1) Jen at Lots of Scotts always has great perspective and wisdom, in addition to the cutest triplets you’ve ever seen (by the way, my real-life friends Emma Kate and Traci are OBSESSED with Jen’s blog. OBSESSED, I tell you).
2) Jennifer at Mississippi Girl always makes me smile with that sweet outlook of hers; as an added bonus, she just so happens to live in my home state.
3) Kathryn at Daring Young Mom is probably a bloggy standby for lots of y’all, but I’ve only recently started making my way through her archives. So much fun.
4) Overwhelmed! is hosting a Super Bowl Edition of her fab Favorite Ingredients Friday. Be sure to check it out.
5) Here’s something fun that I saw at Stacey’s…and I feel it’s only fair to let you know that from this day forward, I will be known as:
 |
My Peculiar Aristocratic Title is: Her Eminence the Very Viscountess Boomama the Convincing of Porton Down Get your Peculiar Aristocratic Title |
That kind of title will make any girl shake off the winter blahs.
See y’all tomorrow.

BooMama, thanks so much for giving a shout out for my Super Bowl edition of my Favorite Ingredients Friday recipe exchange!
I’ve already gotten lots of great recipes and I hope to see some more today and next Friday! :)

If a family gathering isn’t a fix for the bloggy blahs, I don’t know what is! Thanks for the links. I clicked on Lots of Scotts and I have to say that that is the cutest profile pic ever!

Have a great weekend, BooMama! :-)
I’m looking forward to the new material I know Martie and Sissie will supply for our entertainment. Give them our love, now. I don’t think they really understand how famous they are in the Blogosphere. ;-)

BooMama-
I was at JoAnn’s Fabrics today and saw a label that read-
“ValueBoo”
I have NO IDEA what that means.I wanted to look around for the hidden camera. You are making your way into the craft stores, girl.

If I may, I beseech thee, Your Eminence, to continue dipping into your memory bank for noble and worthy blogs filled with hilarity which is only possible from the mind and keyboard of The Very Viscountess Boomama. I’m not worthy…I’m not worthy….

The blahs have hit here lately too - in more ways than one. I agree it’s the whole winter thing. Hope you have a terrific weekend!

Sarah's in the midst of it says:
When I did it, and entered your BM name, you came up as The Eminent Countess Superficial of Divine Intervention. I’m not sure if that’s a compliment or an insult? Mine, which included the word, “Witch,” was definitely an insult. :)
Have a happy weekend!!

On a different subject…Are you still taking suggestions for movies? I cannot tell you how much our family enjoyed The Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio. My husband was almost as teary as I was. I knew how the movie would end since I read the book. He had no idea and was on the edge of his seat. After watching this movie you won’t complain about your one little one. Well, at least for a day or two.
Just my 3 cents!

Hi Boomama, while I don’t know you very well, I can only imagine that some of your blahs have to do with coming down off your spiritual high from interceding and acting for Kelli. It was so exciting and thrilling to see what God was doing through your blog and your commitment to follow through on the idea! So I think it is only natural to experience blahs when it is back to ordinary life. Best, Pam

Oh, MAN! Hitting writters block just when you’ve been nominated for a Share the Love award must totally suck! I mean stink. I TOTALLY meant stink. I’m sure suck is a bad word for you, as it is for me. So … read STINK.
Yeah. That’s what I meant.
