Autumn Shoot #3 (and feature)

Pin It So, to start it all off I should probably mention that I've been featured over at SnagOne. If you don't know what it is, you just might want to head over and check it out.

Other than that, I've been trying to keep up with shoots. Here is one of the latest…

 

 

  

 

Featured Elsewhere

Pin It I forgot that I was to be featured today over at Laughing Out Loud. Of course, it's a post I wrote a while back for Four Perspectives. Nonetheless, I thought it was good enough to write. Hopefully, you'll think it was good enough to click over to and give it one more chance.

If not, I'm totally not offended…just blogvyous.

Addictions

Pin It

I haven't blogged for a few days.

You probably noticed.

To help feed your addiction I have a special treat in store for you. Not only will I be posting here on my own site today, but I will also be posting over at Four Perspectives and I'm also today's featured blogger over at Laugh out Loud.

Hope this helps out with your much-needed fix…

What's up with the Pirates of Autumn? Hoist the sails and set a course to the second star to the right and straight on to Four Perspectives. Leave a comment over there to let me know that you stopped by. Please don't be disinclined to acquiesce to this request; if you don't, you might just have to walk the plank, matey...

It's all about altitude

Guest Star Day

And so it is...check it out today at Four Perspectives.

So what's the story with bookshelves, novels, and mysteries anyhow? Sounds like a mystery to me, that's for sure. Swing on by let me know you've been there.

Guest blog - The Apron Stage

Pin It I just wanted to make a quick post to let you know that I was invited to do a guest posting all the way over at The Apron Stage. Though this is an older Moments with Joey, it is there if you’d like to head over, check it out, or to comment.

Thanks.

Be our guest

Pin It You can not imagine my surprise when I was chosen to be a guest blogger at Light Refreshments Served. I was astonished when my friend, Gerb, emailed me to let me know that a post I’d written had been published on their website. If you have been frequenting Adventures and Misadventures of Daily Living for awhile, you’ve probably already read this post, if not, feel free to click over and check it out.

Guest blogging

Pin It
I was invited to write a post for “Life as I Know it” elsewhere on the web this week. If you’d like to read it, please feel free to head on over and check it out. Gerb’s blog is always a fun read, and one I highly recommend.

Said post can be found here.

Guest Blogger - Jayne

Pin It I’ve been thinking about doing this for a long time.

It started off as a little idea in the back of my mind, which I finally started to implement today.

But is that not always the way of great ideas? They start off as something we mull around for an unforeseen time period—often we tend to completely forget about for awhile, before something reminds us of it again? Then, we will often become excited and see it all as newness, and wonder why we hadn’t initiated it before now.

Awhile ago I thought of occasionally inviting others to submit posts for Adventures and Misadventures of Daily Living. A ‘guest blogger’ (so to speak) of the proverbial day. It is with this idea that I asked my friend, Jayne, to submit something she wanted to talk about—and an image if desired—which she graciously agreed to do. So, it is without further ado that I introduce you to Jayne of the Moon.

I hope you enjoy her post; I know that I did.

Dear January,

Enough already—we get it! We are losers living lives of terrible misery. You’ve made your point January; you’ve made your point.

You’ve been less than subtle in letting us know we’re a little chubbier than we should be, what with all the ads trumpeting “Half off Slim Fast products”. “A New You!” you proclaim, as you push gym memberships and energy bars our way. We get it January, we’re fat.

“Get Organized!” you shout, from the covers of magazines that stare us down while we wait in the checkout line with our diet pills and Cliff Bars, “Get Organized!” We dutifully box our Christmas decorations away, as if to the grave, only to be left with empty shelves and fireplace mantles begging to be noticed. You leave us with nothing to decorate for, nothing to celebrate. Making paper-chains to count down to Martin Luther King Jr. Day doesn’t pack the same punch we always hope it might.

December encouraged us to eat, drink and be merry, which we did—enjoying social events with family, friends and co-workers. Now you mock us, January, laughing at our empty pockets and bulging hips. “Ha ha ha!” You taunt, as you send us sliding off the roads and into brown snowbanks, “Winter has only just begun!”

You win, January, you win. We are never such failures as we are when we are in your terrible grasp—year after deplorable year.

Now, please, we beg you January, leave us soon.

Counting down the days (paper chain and all),

Jayne
