By now hopefully you know that on Fridays we feature blogs that we love and think you will love too. One of our first choices was Cool Mom Picks, but we didn’t want to seem like we were begging (not that we are above that) for them to mention us… so we held off.

(photo via Oh Happy Day) Welcome to the second installment of Fabulous Blog Friday. Today we are featuring Oh Happy Day (Updated Daily with Pretty Things). Pretty things is exactly right. Jordan has excellent taste and plans some really fabulous parties. Check out the 30th Birthday Picnic she just blogged about.

Moment of Blueness I had another blog post in mind for tonight but wasn’t feeling particularly chirpy… it will keep for tomorrow. I thought I had been getting on OK with a particular crowd (nothing to do with blogging), then realized some of them would talk to the ‘usual’ people while leaving me out, no matter how often my name came up in the conversation.

Dirty Litter Something I didn’t bargain for was how much dirtier the litter tray would be with two kittens visiting it all day every day (along with the occasional visit from an older cat). Sharky’s tray tended to stay quite clean because he often went outside.

Get involved here! I have sons. Four of them. Everyone knows what little boys like to do, and that’s get dirty. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had a son come in with dirty, filthy clothes because he decided that he and his friends were going to “explore”.

This morning Mum was rushing around looking for her car keys, and eventually left without them. Two minutes after her departure, I found them laid out on the stairs – they’d been stolen by the kittens. Nothing is safe with those two – they have shredded Mum’s headphones and played basketball with her watch.

I was struggling to come up with something for this week’s BlogFriday word, ‘tears’. I could research and write something factual, tell a sad or a funny story – I could talk about my tears, or someone else’s. We all have them, even if we have to squeeze them out of a bottle.

Join the BlogFriday fun! After a hiatus of a couple of weeks with the pre-flu, the actual flu, and the post-flu, I’m ready to tackle the latest word… “tears”. In the last few years, or at least since I turned 40 four years ago, I’ve become this emotional mess.

I’m still sick, I haven’t been outside, it’s not likely I’ll be going outside anytime soon, so there is really nothing for me to write about. I guess I could check BlogFriday for the word of the week. I don’t know. I have all this stuff swirling around my brain that I don’t know what to do with. It could be because of the flu.
