Introducing Punday!

Things have been kind of sad and depressing around here lately. Well honestly, I've just been sad and depressed in general what with all the pain and stopping TTC and everything. So I decided to start a new thing here on the blog that might help lift my spirits a little. Punday! Throughout the week when I'm feeling particularly down, I'm going to go scour the web for the punniest puns I can find. I won't stop looking until I've laughed at least once.  Then on Monday I will share 5-10 of my favorites with you guys since I know I'm not the only one having a hard time. I'd like to invite you to participate as well. Partly in hopes that it will brighten your day, and partly because I'm selfish and would love to look at your puns when I'm feeling blue. I think we could all use a little bit of joy around here. =)

And now the puns! I went with an Easter theme for my first one since I never made an Easter post yesterday.

I made this button if you want to use it on your punday posts. I'll be honest, it took me way longer to make this than I'd like to admit. I still don't know how to make one of those html boxes so you can copy and paste it into your post. If anyone would like to share how to do that I'd really appreciate it!

30 Days of Thanks: Days 16 & 17

I was busy yesterday and didn't get a chance to post so I'm combining them again.

16. I am thankful for short heels.

Yesterday my DH and I attended a formal murder mystery dinner. It was a lot of fun and I hope they have another one. Since I didn't really have anything appropriate to wear I had to buy new stuff which wasn't as fun. I only have like one pair of beat up black flats that I wear every day and I knew those weren't going to cut it. As a child I used to wear heels all the time, I would even play on my pogo-stick while wearing them. Now not so much. I was able to get some heels that are probably 1 inch from Kohls and they are awesome. It says they are for "juniors" but honey badger don't care. They are comfy as heck for dress shoes. Here they are and then a picture of me and DH all dressed up. =]

  

17. I am thankful for blog hops.

I have recently made it to 23 followers which I think is awesome. It may not seem like much to you guys, but  that's one follower more than my last blog several years ago ever got. I've had several blogs in the past but this is by far my most successful. I think part of the reason why is because I have a defined purpose here that lacked before.

Anyway, a few of those followers are people who I knew prior to blogging but most of them/you come from blog hops. I've also found several new blogs that I enjoy reading from those same blog hops. Here are links to the ones I normally participate in.
