It's Crayon Day! It should be no surprise to y'all that I love crayons even now. When I was very, very little I only had four, in the colors depicted on the bow: red, blue, yellow, and green. When I started school I learned that crayons come in many, many other colors, but I digress. Green was my favorite color as a toddler, and it remains that way now, but for some reason I chose blue earrings to go with the bow. I think I chose blue because I wear blue jeans every day, and blue jewelry matches blue jeans. Or that's the way I reasoned back in high school. But for the record, I do love blue; when one is a Moody Blues fan one tends to gravitate towards blue, and I am indeed a fan, LOL. Heck, I liked blue BEFORE I could tell Justin Hayward from Justin Timberlake (which isn't hard, as one's old and talented and the other is young and does better on SNL than he does as a singer). But anyway, I got the blue crayons to go with my bow. Pit...
Okay, I spoke too soon about July being super-dull. Today is a family-favorite holiday, National Hot Dog Day. Thus I get to wear my corn dog! Etsy shop is CreationsbyCronisha , and they are currently not selling. The corn dog is no gray area, I must say! I've gotten laughter, compliments, and a few folks that shrug and say "You do you." Hey, as long as they're not rude I can dig whatever they say. But I like to wear goofy stuff, and...well, wearing a crocheted corn dog is about as goofy as it gets. Mama and I went on a strict diet around the first of July, because our weight is getting out of hand and our joints ache because of it. Lots of water, lots of fiber, lots of eggs, no candy or chips or soda. Not the most fun, but we already feel better because of it. But today we might go to Sonic and pick up a hot dog apiece. Sonic makes their hot dogs good. I like mine with relish, mustard, and kraut, while Mama likes...well, ...
Today is, among other goofy holidays, Pretend to Be a Time Traveller Day, but I think I'll leave the TARDIS bow at home and stick with the season. Even if it's way warmer than it should be. Seriously, I'm in short sleeves and flip-flops. Santa Claus! Or a Santa Claus theme. This is another one that Mama got for me...gosh, it was clean back in the spring, right at the "clove of the seasons," as I often say on my doll blog. Y'all probably know that irritating cusp between winter and spring, where it's cold at the beginning of the day and too warm for long sleeves at the end, where the flowers are taking leaf but the ants aren't out yet. I've learned that when we have a warm snap but the ants don't come out, we're gonna have at least one more cold snap. Ants are smart like that; they do what God and their puny little brains tell them to, and we don't, and we often pay for it. ANYWAY, it was a day like that when Mama handed me this ...
