What's That Quote? #15


I'm just going to call this a Manic Monday!
It has been one of those days, y'all!
I could almost scream...or cry. I don't know which would make me feel better.
Today's quote is basically coined by yours truly, and I seem to be saying it a lot today!


"What the Shit????" ~ Trema(CoffeeWastedMomma)

Which is pretty much what I say whenever I just don't know what is going on or I give up trying to figure it out!

I'm not sure if the Friday the thirteenth curse is carrying over to today or what!
Today has not been my most productive.
This past weekend was filled with traveling for softball tournaments so I was already off schedule and trying to get up early today to cram in what all needed accomplished.
I already had my quote for today picked out and saved.
I could have sworn I had my pic for today's post already edited and saved.(Apparently...I did not!)
My notes jotted down, etc.
I did find those, but not useful at this point.
I overslept so the coffee my darling had made was already getting cold, as the pot is only timed to stay on for 2 hours after it brews! I know criminal...

I had to do a few things outside before the rain came...which it still hasn't 4 hours later! So, I rushed to do garden chores for nothing! But we did get a crap ton of green beans and 1 large tomato.

Well, because...every post has to have a photo, this one was pre-edited and it is also one of my favorite...
It's Kentucky, doesn't have to be anything in particular, it is just that.
Here is where the pic was originally posted:
Jump over, it was a good post.


Now, I've been trying to grab a new quote and write a whole post about something I haven't had time to really put my mind into...What the shit?...right?
I know!

My photo didn't save, my quote is less than planned or thought out.
My stupid BeFunky~ Photo Editing Site keeps crashing shockwave.
I have no quote, no photo, no thoughts...
So, I am hoping y'all can laugh and scream with me today. Chalk it up to "What The Shit?" Monday and carry on with me!
I promise their are better days to come!

P.S. If there is a weird code at the bottom and not my signature....Well...
What The Shit?
Something else that isn't working right today. I'll check back to see and try to fix that also!

20 MORE Summer Writing Prompts For kids

 
20 MORE Summer Writing Prompts For Kids

Hi y'all.
I wanted to take the chance to add another great list of writing prompts before Summer officially ends. If you missed my first list, be sure to check it out:
In Ohio, we only have about 28 days left before all the kids head back to their 8 hours of structured confinement. 
I'm using this time to let them use those little brains as creatively as possible! 
Yes, these are prompts, but please use them as just that. Let the littles come up with a few of their own!
I know it is a huge confidence booster when they realize how creative they can be all on their own.
So, mommas....prompt and let go! Let them write.




1. Make a superhero
2. My greatest adventure
3. Build the perfect ice cream sundae
4. If I was inside/on my favorite television show
5. My dream grocery store list(what I would buy)
6. If I lived 100 years ago
7. My favorite indoor games
8. A perfect day at school
9. Plan my own themed party
10. A day at the zoo I designed
11. My dream bedroom
12. If I was the parent for a day
13. My imaginary pet
14. What I like best about being me
15. Worst chore ever
16. If it was always Winter
17. Best memory with Mom or Dad
18. If there weren't any cars/trains/airplanes
19. My dream job/career
20. If I could switch places with anyone

Well, here is my list of 20 more...
Have your kids done much writing over Summer vacation?
What was their favorite thing to write about?
I'd love to hear from you!
Keep checking back for more fun ideas.

What's That Quote? #14


  We all have those days where we have to get things done. The things that can't wait or be put off until later.
We have those days where we say, we aren't doing anything. The days you are just too tired to even attempt the smallest tasks.

Then, we have Mondays! For me, these are the days... I will try!
I know there are a ton of things that should be getting done around here, and...I will try!


"Today is a good day to try." ~ Quasimodo

Don't be like this gargoyle sitting around waiting!
Get up and TRY!
I know how it is. Some days that is all we can do!
That's fine with me! I have those days too.
Here's how I am going to use this.
I am going to try to finish this cup of coffee before it gets cold...colder.
I am going to try to get as much laundry done as possible!
I am going to try to plan and make a decently healthy meal tonight.
I am going to try to get my book finished today(125 pages left)
I am going to try to get the offspring in bed at a decent time tonight!

I am going to try today!
What are you going to try today? Something new? Let me know how your Monday is going!


Be like Quasi and TRY!
