U is for UMI Shoe Review

I made a huge posting booboo. I had started my review for Umi Shoes a while ago and saved a draft so that I could post it for U in the Z-A Challenge. But it posted for last month instead of today. Gotta figure out how to schedule my posts.
Anyway for those who follow daily and missed it, here is the review.

V is for Void

Today's post is more of a challenge. How do you fill a void in your life? Everyone has a different tool that they use. Some fill their voids with destructive behavior while others use intelligent stimulation to fill their voids.

It got me thinking. I used to fill the void with useless computer games. But seriously! How fulfilling is planting another corn stalk on a fake farm? I try to fill my time with more constructive projects. I now subject you, my readers, to my personal insight. HaHa!!

No really. There is a void in a mom's life when her children grow and leave the nest. This void leads to a rediscovery of who she is as a person. That is what I have been doing with my "void". I find that blogging has made me more aware of who I am as an individual person. It has also brought me back to some of my favorite hobbies. Reading, Photography, and Crafting.

How do you fill your void? Let me know!

W is for WHAT was I Thinking?

WOW!

Only 1 week into this new challenge and I am already behind! Time to play catch up! :o)

Yabba Dabba Doo

I happened to be watching an old Flinstone cartoon with the kids and thought - "Hey, here's my 'Y' word." So thought I would do a little research.


Yabba-Dabba-Doo, is the catchphrase of Fred Flinstone, the patriarch of the Flinstone cartoons. I found that the phrase was actually adapted from a old Brylcream jingle - "A Little Dab'll Do Ya!")

Even more interesting is the definition from the Urban Dictionary. As this is a family blog, check out the meaning of Yabba-Dabba-Doo for yourself!

What ever it means to you ...Have a good day!
