You Can Quote Me

The Day 2 assignment for the 31 Day Blog Challenge was "Favorite Quotes".  I had every intention of skipping this one.  You see, I love quotes.  So many quotes.  Asking me to pick a favorite quote is like asking me to pick a favorite book - just about impossible.  However, as I thought about it, I decided I didn't have to choose favorites.  I only had to select a few to share on this particular occasion.  So, here ya go.  A day late, but completed all the same ...  enjoy!!

Randomize Me

Day one 8 the blog challenge is: Self portrait and 5 random facts about yourself.

1)  I hate taking selfies.  Seriously.  I'm not a big fan of having my picture done, period.  In fact, I almost skipped that portion of today's "assignment"

2)  Despite the fact that I refer to myself as the Queen B, I named my business Queen B's Busy Work, and collect bee related items - I am actually somewhat afraid of the real thing and was allergic to them as a child.

3)  I am afraid of heights.  As in knee shakingly, dizzy type fear when I get above ground level.  But I love to fly and always try to get a window seat.

4)  I have never had a "brain freeze".  Despite several efforts over the years to intentionally induce one.  I suspect my family resents this.

5)  I crack myself myself up on a regular basis.  I will often start to tell a joke or story and be unable to finish because I am laughing so much.

March-ing Along

Welcome to March, everyone!  I know those of you who dislike the winter are celebrating today and anticipating Spring.  However, as much as I am looking forward to the blooming of daffodils and forsythia, and the milder days ahead; I do so cautiously.  The biggest blizzard in memory was 23 years ago this month.  I know not to trust Spring in these mountains and to hang onto the winter wardrobe until May rolls in.

This morning I was scrolling through pages of Google images, just looking for a March picture...  when I came across THIS:

Now, I have been trying to schedule some time into my week to sit down and brainstorm ideas for blog posts.  If you write, you know what a chore that can be!  And while I have come up with a few (very few) fresh ideas,  I was lacking.  

As I read through the above list of prompts, many of them lit a little creative spark with me.  A few made me cringe or groan a little, but I can just skip those.  

Sadly, it appears the original source of this particular challenge closed up shop sometime between 2013 when it was written and now.  But, Tiffany - where ever you are now - THANKS for the inspiration!

And as for the rest of you - keep watching for my responses to the prompts.  Or even better - follow along on your own blog!!
