Saturday Fun!

In a little while, I will be relaxing in bed with a word search and a cup of cinnamon tea. Check it out. Well, check one of them out. They have I don't know how many, but more than one literary word search that can be printed. A literary word search, candlelight, cinnamon tea and the sound of (albeit virtual) crickets and rain...perfection. (You will have to click the post title in order to be transferred. My editing choices seem to have vanished.)

In the sidebar, you will notice a Kurt Vonnegut quote about kindness. I love this quote. It is straight to the point with no foofy fluff. If you click on the picture you will be taken to a brand new site called "kind over matter". Again, I'm sorry that I can't add the link to this post. Amanda Oaks and Jenn Gibson are the sweet souls behind that blog. I encourage you to go there and take advantage of their free downloads! They offer free downloads of business size cards that encourage people to think about kindness. I think that is TOO FANTASTIC! I've been living the life of a hermit this week, but will be strategically placing these cards all over Chicago tomorrow!

Also in the sidebar is a button stating that "musings" is an award-free blog. I thank everyone who has given me awards! Make no mistake...it's wonderful to be acknowledged! :) But I am uncomfortable picking and choosing recipients to pass the awards on to. It's just a weird personality thing. Therefore, I think it best to become "award-free". Again, if you will click on that button, you will be transported to Miss Penniwig's blog. She is the gracious lady who freely provided this graphic. In fact, she offers free graphics on a daily basis!

Well, I hear that literary word search calling my name...

Hi Susan, what a relaxing way to spend a Saturday evening. I think it would be fun to try the word search.

Hey, this doesn't stop me from giving you awards, right? You don't have to pass them on or post them. It's enough that you know I was thinking of you. :) After all, I'm a big fan of your work here.

Much Love and Blessings to you,

Bing (",)

Heya Susan,

I'll be lucky of I get 4 hours of sleep, let alone a lazy morning lie about. *sighs*

I love Kurt, I loved the quote. FUN FUN FUN!

'round and wet and crowded' - indeed!
It's a great quote all round.

Bing, oh, your awards warm my heart! :) You are a gem. And thanks for understanding.

SPSurry, SLEEP, child, SLEEP! Isn't that quote the bomb?!

Rachel, he certainly nailed it on the head. :)

I actually agree with you Susan concerning the awards. It is very nice to be recognized but I guess the demand of passing them to 5 or 10 people make it a little bit fuzzy for me.
I am not selfish by any means but I am like you feel uncomfortbale doing it. I did it couple of times and I stopped.

Khaled KEM, it is a bit of a relief to put up that button. :)
