Looking For Some Validation?

Sorry to leave the party blog up so long without any new posts but Ms. Techie here inadvertently linked my BLOG address and not the PARTY post address. Ah, what 3a.m. will do for you. So, bear with me if you see it post again this week. Newcomers still need to find their way around.

In all my partying, I came across a new blog I decided to follow called Modern Mom Musings. Check her out. I think you'll like her, too. She said, "Someone who knows I'm not on Facebook right now (she gave it up for Lent!) shot this link my way." And I loved it.

And I wanted to watch because we bloggers have this mutual validation club going. And sometimes I question it. Is it good? Am I needy? Should I get therapy and/or medicine? Yes, yes, and that's pointless because no one is talented enough to cure me, and meds and I don't play well together.

Besides the reality is, I LOVE validating people. And obviously you do, too. Look how much we're hangin' out together and just read all the lovely things you say.

A little warning: there are a few bad words from one guy who gets mad. Not BIG bad words but they are there. Yes, I know we hear them everyday and everywhere. But this would be rated PG if you were going to a movie. And I thought you should know. So without further ado.....here is "Validation."

The Ultimate Blog Party 2009 - Welcome!

Hi! My name is Robynn and I'd like to say......

Welcome to my place. Thanks for coming!

Giveway: $30 Amazon.com Gift Card

I'll tell you a little bit about me and this spot where I hang out with my friends. I write a humor blog, mostly. Once in awhile it's not - by design....or accident. Take a little tour and you can decide for yourself if we're laughing because we have a sense of humor, or we've just lost our minds. You be the judge and then decide if you're one of us.

Technology ever give you fits? You might identify:

"Toothaches & Technology"

Do you love the scale at the doctor's office? Then don't read this:

"Cinderella Is Overrated"

Has your pastor ever taken his false teeth out for your personal entertainment?

"False Teeth and Pastors"

Ever have gophers attached to body parts?

"Punxsutawney Phil and Gopher Guts"

These are part of the goofball things we talk about around here. But maybe you're interested in homeschooling issues. I'm getting ready to graduate Hannah-Bo, who is a senior. And The Wild Man is in 7th grade. I've homeschooled from the beginning. I don't claim to have all the answers but I'm happy to share what we did to get this far. You might like to read this:

"Homeschooling To the Finish Line"

Do you enjoy short stories about the great outdoors? Kids and camping? Bears destroying cars? Tune in here:

"A Bear Market - Part 1"

"A Bear Market - Part 2"

"A Bear Market - Part 3"

"A Bear Market - Epilogue"

I also have a little category I like to call "Observational Twitters." They go something like this:

Tuesday, February 24, 2009

Observational Twitter 11
Fact:

"Today is Fat Tuesday."

More Pertinent Fact:

"For me, EVERY Tuesday is fat Tuesday. What I really wanna know is: Where the heck is Skinny Wednesday and why haven't I been invited to THAT party?"

And then I gotta show you the family of course and that includes kids, animals, nature.....and posting links.
