    Weekly Wrap Up (Jun. 28 - Jul. 4)

    By wildone

    Well a belated Happy 250th Birthday to our American neighbours  Someone told me @Myr came over, not on the Mayflower, but another boat and tossed tea into Boston Harbour . Seems kind of far fetched though  . So question 1 for all out Weekly Wrap Up readers, if you live in the U S of A, did you do anything special on Saturday or Saturday night. Or are you still celebrating on Sunday AM when this is posted? 250 years is quite a long time, in North American terms. Also a happy belat

Weekly Wrap Up (Jan. 11 - Jan. 17)

Monday is the day they call Blue Monday. If you remember, last week I revealed to all that I was down in the dumps   I really have to give you all the hugest hugs . After watching all the music vids and then watching 3 favourite shows: Ferris Buhler's Day Off, Red White and Royal Blue, and Heated Rivalry (my favourites, don't judge me  ) and going for a longer walk, I was feeling better. I think distracting my mind for about 8 hours and then some exercise seemed to do the trick. I wen

Antholology Flashback - 2006 - Blizzard

Keep an eye out, as the team is working on the the 2026 Anthology Theme, which will be launching soon. Without further ado, here are our 2006 - Blizzard entries:

WeeKeLy WrApUp - (JaN. 4 - jAn. 10)

Howdy Ho Good Neighbours! I guess that is why they'd call it the blues.... Interesting, the holidays are over, the bills are coming in, back to work everyday of the week, the days are getting longer but still submerged in darkness for most of the day (in my longitude).  They say the 3rd Monday of January is blue Monday, the saddest day of the year, but I think I've arrived a wee bit earlier .  I just feel blah!  So I need you all to give me something to do to cheer me up
