did i skeer ya? HAHA! ;)
i thought maybe i’d sneak up onya since it’s been a few weeks since i last yacked on here. yep, i’ve still been around…reading your blogs (not commenting much tho—that brain fog is debilitating! LOL!)…and ive WANTED to chitchat here but…
…but it would have been all bellyachin and negative and weh-weh-poor-me and then i’d feel guilty dumping all that on all you poor folks who are expecting sillygolucky, NOT whiny-go-wretched!! :P
plus i do have a bit of an excuse as i was actually BUSY…WORKING…hehe! last week i had my 3-day outing at the ag institute with 13 high school students from chicago. it made for 3 veryvery long 13-hour days! and other than being a challenge sticking to our planned outdoor activities (we had daytime -30 degree windchills), everything went smoothly and the students had a great time. our activities focused on sustainable agriculture, alternative energy, wildlife/resource conservation and reducing our carbon footprint. plus, every day the students helped prepare their own meals from fresh ingredients. it was rewarding for everyone! :)
anyhoo, i’ve super missed writing in my blog. i have plenty of time nearly every day to post SOMEthing. i’m just one of those (forever) recovering perfectionists, and i feel like if i dont have something to delve about or slighty-sorta-lifechanging to say that it’s not worth posting. obviously that’s a goofy way of thinking!
maybe i’ll get inspired sometime soon and come up with something fun to do on my blog for a while. maybe even spruce it up a little around here. cause it IS ALMOST spring here in the bitter freezing midwest! ;) so that may call for some blog spring cleaning :)
okay, i’ve totally rambled on. hehe. i thought i’d peep in and let you all know i’m still kickin!!
have a thoroughly theriffic thurthday! (heh, im sucha geek. you know, the alliteration and sylvester the cat thpelling. hehe. okay anyway.)

Glad to be reading you again. Sounds like you had loads of fun with the kids! Where I post every day, you can't expect earth-shaking all the time.
ReplyDeletehi witchyp! you're so cute, always my biggest fan =) glad to know you're still hovering around!! i think i nearly burned myself out blogging by wracking my brain, trying to come up with something WOW to talk about all the time. i'm gonna *TRY* to work myself back into a few times a week and just say what's on my mind--earth-shaking or not! i know i definitely dont have those sort of expectations from anyone else's blog...i enjoy chitchat and just knowing what folks are thinkin and doin. =)
ReplyDeleteHi Josey,

ReplyDeleteGlad you are back!! Cannot imagine being out in that cold Chicago weather - glad you had fun.
ReplyDeletehey, WI mommy! thanks for saying hello :) actually, i did the outing here in WI--the kids were just from a school in Chicago. AND while we were having sub-zero temps here, they didnt even have any snow! it had been raining there. lucky them!
ReplyDeletei am going to pull my hair out tho--it is SNOWING AGAIN! this winter seems sooo much longer than last winter, dont you think?
Thurificc Thphmonday!
ReplyDeleteStopped by to say hello :-)

That agricultural thing with the students sounds like a really cool event.
ReplyDeleteheya, thpeedy!! thanks for thhhtoppin by! hehe!!
ReplyDeletehiya, ern! yeah, it was! esp because the students had several choices of field trips to take...they could have gone nearly anywhere in the world and chose to come here instead =) hopefully they learned something. actually, one girl did--she asked if cucumbers grew on trees. she'd only seen them at the store. :-O obviously she learned they dont! LOL! it was then i realized the impact of living in a large city and never getting out...many kids are so far removed from where their food comes from!
