* NOSTALGIC SUNDAY *



IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER "NOSTALGIC SUNDAY!"



I'm happy to say that I'm at home and I'm still able to work on my blog! I always used to use Internet Explorer, but I'm using a different one, and it seems to be the one I need to stick with. 

I haven't had "fun" blogging in a long time, but I hope to discover that joy again, and soon, like as in...Now! 

So, my nostalgic thoughts this evening are of past years when so many of us were blogging consistently...as many of you still do.
I always enjoyed the:
  • Writerly blogs
  • Tea cup blogs
  • Photography blogs
  • Food & Recipe blogs
  • Humorous blogs
  • Serious blogs
  • Motivational blogs
  • Etcetera!


I plan to be back soon, posting on my blog, and reading as many of yours as I possibly can. Have a beautiful, blissful week everyone!




All my crazy friends mean the world to me!
You know who you are! 💗

* Wow ~ I'm on Erma Bombeck's site *

Pigtails to chin hairs  (My memoir is mentioned)

I'm on Erma Bombeck's Writer's Workshop website! :)

(All of the below was added after the first three comments. I realized I needed to add more information.)

P.S. I received my first box of books today!

And, no, I didn't have The Ronald take any pictures of ME, because I'd already had huge excitement just when my first proof arrived! ☺

1) I'm not sure when I'll have the PayPal available, so if anyone wants to pay by check or would prefer paying that way, anyway, just send an e-mail to: beckypovich (at) G mail (dot) com

*Update*November 13* 
Books are now available at my website and at Amazon. 
Click on either link and it will take you directly there. 
Thank you in advance!

1) And if purchasing directly from Amazon is preferred, I can always mail a signed bookplate. (if wanted)

* I GOT NOTHIN', FOLKS....Again *

I've been racking my brain for days, trying to think of something to write about for a blog post. I haven't been in my usual upbeat mood and that puts a real damper on most topics. So, I made the decision to repost something humorous from a couple of years ago.

~~~~~

While driving to the grocery store this afternoon, with my list of fruits and veggies to buy, the following words popped into my head. I've mentioned before that I am not a poet, and don't y'all know it, as you can see below: 

(Hint: Sing out loud or in your head to the tune of ♫♪ Back in the Saddle Again. ♫♪)

I'm back into salads again.
Burgers & fries won't make me thin.
I saw some gorgeous clothes at 
the mall last week.
I must fight this war on fat and win.

(courtesy google)
Chorus:
I'm back into salads again.
Lettuce & broccoli are my friends
Also low cal dressing will help
Try to get rid of my chin(s)
I'm back into salads again.

(Forgive me Gene Autry!)
