Feeling The Burn.

Blogtoberfest has me on the ropes. I had a post for today; in fact, I have posts (in my head) for lots of days, but I woke up feeling “Meh”.

My Place and Yours is off to a slow start this week; tell me why? Is it the long weekend? Is it the theme? Would you like some ideas?

Creative licence is welcomed with this meme. Already two players have adorable pictures of their kiddos where they sleep. Or you could shoot what you can see from where you sleep, or perhaps an artistic shot of your pillow & some musing on why you need to spend more time with it… so you still have a childhood teddy?! What I wouldn’t do to see that. Take your time by all means, but do join in, lest I feel disheartened & give up like I tend to do when things don’t go so well. It’s a petulant attitude, I know, but it’s my petulant attitude.

I’ve dusted off the ol’facebook page over here; I have something in mind for November that I think peeps over there (& on the twitter, of course) can help me with, so if you’re curious, or bored, or perhaps would like me to draw something in particular (<---- Less of a hint, more of a sledgehammer), pop over & wait impatiently.

Okay, that’s enough rambling for a post I wasn’t even going to write! Enjoy the rest of your weekend, long or short & remember; Just. One. More. Day.

    Aww don't be disheartened, it's a great idea for a meme and I love the theme. Maybe folk are a bit reluctant to share photos of their bedrooms, or perhaps that's just untidy me!

    It's a great theme. The sleep shot is happening... it just meant I had to make the bed!! I suspect I am not alone (Or am I'm just dobbing myself in)?

    I'm playing Vic. Just thinking about it because I posted a pic. of my bed and kiddos bed just recently so just taking some time to think of a new angle. I love to play so please don't lose heart.

    haha its because we have to throw out the dead flowers, dust the bedside table, throw all the shoes and dirty washing in some other place and then take a photo. Yeah does that give you a picture??

    My bed is filled with piles of washed washing and books and bibs and other clothing items and more books and maybe some magazines and I rarely get to sleep in it anymore. Makes me kind of sad and I must admit that it felt a bit intimate to share my resting place. I mean sharing the place where I sleep and dream on the internet felt a bit too much. There we go an honest answer to your question. But I think mostly it is because all that tidying up people are doing. Soon you'll have billions of beds, sofas, chairs, car seats, mattresses, beanbags etcetera to look at. So please don't be too disheartened. And way to go blogging everyday!

    Looks like I'm in good (untidy) company. I just took a careful shot with minimal fussing. You can just imagine the clothing tossed over the drawers and the end of the bed and all the detritus of a big family that somehow is drawn like a whirpool with our room at it's centre.

    Oh, and my bedroom is the one room I feel I can be a slob cos I will never be asked to have it on open display for public viewing. Or so I thought. ;)

    I've been thinking about it, just have got to the doing yet. And I might even be brave enough to show it 'as is'. I said 'maybe'.

    I'm going to try really hard to get my MPAY post up this week (actually took pics for the last two but I just can't get my act together with the blogging these days!). Hope you're feeling less "meh" now...

Let's have a chat. And a biscuit. And some tea. And another biscuit.
