Thank You For Encouraging My Joy of Writing

:) Love you! You keep it REAL.
ReplyDeleteOh you!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, get that cat inside! I was worried sick throughout the vlog.
Second, it was great to hear you had a great time writing and to hear your honest voice come out through your vlog since it always comes out in your writing as well.
AND thank you for mentioning my blog. Today would be a great day for new people to come by since I berate some readers, accuse some of lurid thoughts and command that they comb my hair as well.
Now I must go get some lipstick on, sweet one.
Keep rising out of that funk. You know Kerry would want his Mama to shine. (And she does!)
Ha! You are so funny! Glad you are feeling better. Your mom is a woman after my own heart, many days I leave this house with nothing but lipstick and sunglasses...and...err...clothes of course!
ReplyDeleteGreat vlog! Good luck with your work. What an excellent title too - first taste of summer
ReplyDeleteWow you are so brave, You would never see me in my p.j.s on my blog. :( thats cause you are so cute in you P.J.s.
ReplyDeleteI too have been unfaithful to most men I've dated...one reason I think I struggle with weight is that once I get thin and boy start looking, I get bad thoughts. Fat and faithful is what I always say.
Cool vlog! Great idea. I've started reading "first taste of summer" like 12 time but my kids are always jumping on me....I'll do tho.
I love bossy betty too :)
Big crazy freaky love.
Great vlog and it's cool to "meet" you via the video. I really like the First Taste of Summer and I can wait to read more. It really makes you think back to those early romances and giggle. I love the realness in all of your posts.
ReplyDeleteyou are a brave, brave woman. And thank you for brushing your teeth. cuz, yuk, we wouldn't want to be smelling your bed breath while you were talking. :)
ReplyDeleteTotally Fun vlog!!! :D Honestly, I appreciate the fashion advice handed down from your mother--sunglasses and lipstick! I'm mostly of no nonsense German ancestry and somehow I had to learn make up and fashion from friends, NOT my mother or grandmother! Fortunately, my daughter is part Filipina with an innate sense of what looks chic. I'm inspired. Gonna go buy some shades and a ready-for-summer shade of lipstick.
ReplyDeletelipstick has to smell good in order for me to wear it.
ReplyDeletei'm very critical (insecure) of my appearance so posting this vlog - up close and first thing in the morning - was challenging for me.
Michelle - interesting comment about weight. now THAT was honest!
time to write....THANK YOU FOR COMMENTING :)))) I needed, really NEEDED to hear it was well received.
beautiful day.....beautiful day :)
Loved your vlog. Love your honesty. Love your writing. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow. Incredible story. Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm so happy you did and that it led me here.
ReplyDeletehi green! glad to meet you and your gem of a blog!
ReplyDeleteHi Green Monkey!
ReplyDeleteIt's great to find your blog, lots of great stuff to read! Thanks for the follow, and I'd like to tag along with you too!
This is a very interesting post. The first of its kind! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat vlog, I really enjoyed watching it. I liked that you were very calm, it was like having a conversation, I think you're a camera natural :)
ReplyDeletethanks you guys! and Sam, I am soooo uncomfortable in front of the lens but here I was talking to my laptop - just like when I write. so it just felt like I was talking to all of YOU my blogger base which has become very important to me - and so unexpected.
ReplyDeleteHey, I've just given you an award. Come over and collect. http://dazeedreams.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteLove the video!!! I can almost hear your mom's voice saying everybody looks better in lipstick and sunglasses!! I remember your mom teaching us how to fold a fitted bed sheet,waaaay back in the day!!! Sam Liu said it well, you were very calm in your video, that was wonderful.

Loving the vlog. I am not brave enough to do one yet. Bossy Betty is one of my favorites too! I'm glad your writing is helping you release some of your emotions, that's what my blog really helps me with too!
ReplyDeleteI loved your vlog this morning. I thought the sunglasses and lipstick in bed were charming, perhaps I will try that someday.
ReplyDeleteI very much enjoyed your First Taste of Summer post. Young romance is so intense.
I haven't seen you around the blogs. Hope you are doing ok. :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat vlog!
