When is the last time

by Kay~Kacey on 6/24/2008

When is the last time you took a day off just for yourself? Doing only what you WANTED to do? Nothing you had to do, or should do?

Sunday I took a Kacey Day. Yes, I call them Kacey Days. You can call them Kacey Days if you want to too! 🙂

I read this book on Sunday:

Mary Higgins Clark

Now, I love Mary Higgins Clark books. I’ve read everyone of them. She has a new one out each May. So (and this is terrible of me, but I’ll confess it to you guys. :secret: ) I give the new Mary Higgins Clark book to my mom each Mother’s Day because she loves Mary Higgins Clark books too. Then, of course, Mom gives it to me to read when she’s finished with it. Um, that’s kind of like giving MYSELF a present, isn’t it?? 🙄

This book, Where Are You Now, was a good read, but it was one of the few of her books that I figured out who did it before the end of the book. :angry: I hate that.

Now, back to the Kacey Day. When I said I read this book on Sunday…I mean, that is ALL I did. All day. Read this book. Oh, and took a nap. 😉 I did no laundry, paid no bills, cleaned nothing, did no grocery shopping, cooked no meals. It was a total Kacey Day. A great way to recharge.

So when is the last time you took a Kacey Day? A day all to yourself to do just what you wanted to do? If you took a Kacey Day, what did you do with your day?

A Blogging Poll

As some of you know, I co-author a How-to-Blog blog, DandelionBlog I’m doing a little research on blogging preferences. So who better to come to than my blog readers? Would you mind answering some quick questions? Then in the comments you can expound on any of your answers. Or ask more questions. Or tell me to get lost. 😉

[poll id=”9″]

Yes, this is a terribly scientific poll, why do you ask? 🙄 If you have any other blogging friends to send this way and answer the poll, I’d appreciate it. Thanks for your help! Any comments on any of the questions, why you chose an answer, or anything else you want to add is appreciated!

It’s a Big Bold World Out There

by Kay~Kacey on 6/21/2008

Hi, this is Charlie. I’m in my new home. The backyard has a hill! I’m not so sure about it.

Hills are scary when you’re just a puppy. Everything is so new here. There are lots of big dogs around.

Luckily I found a big human I recognized. Hills are scary I tell you.

puppy dinner table

I have my own private dining table. Complete with chew toy so I don’t chew on human shoes… Much.

make do gate

The humans thought that these big baskets scooted together would block me from my favorite game… I call it run up the stairs while humans chase me saying “Get back here, Charlie.” I wonder what that means? I guess it means they are having fun. The baskets didn’t work, I could squeeze through them no matter what the humans tried. They bought this thing they call a gate. I don’t like it. They ruined my favorite game of humans chase the puppy.

it's exhausting being a puppy

Finally I decided to have a nap. Or my humans decided to have a nap. I’m not sure which. But it’s exhausting being a puppy!!
