The Oldies Meme

The Oldies Meme....

I was over at Melli's Place yesterday and saw this meme. I thought I'd give it a try. The object is to go through all your old posts and pick out one favorite in each category: Funny, Serious, Ugly (or a Rant) and About Me. It was fun to go over my old posts and find those that "fit"....

For Funny, I chose Menopause the Musical-- it's about the "mess-up" that happened when I went with my two friends to see waht "other women" go through when they hit "mid-life". We had a great time...but it WAS an important lesson.

Serious posts are many in my blog. I decided in honor of Tony Dungy, my favorite football coach, that I would revisit this post written just after he lost his son to suicide last year. I figure it's one of my more serious posts and there are no comments...so maybe no one read it.

Choosing an "UGLY RANT" was much more difficult...Here's the RANT POST I chose. It's important because it's about making sure all kids are safe. This little girl is now safely adopted into a new family that loves her and cares for her. Her grandmother no longer has rights to her. I just worry about the OTHER kids she DOES continue to raise. Once this monsterous behavior is in you...I think it's hard to get rid of....

And last ... my About Me post... All I could think of was "find the 'One Hundred Things About Me' post...well I didn't call it THAT! It took a while, but I found it here under Better Late Than Never.

It was definitely FUN going through old posts. I wish some of you would try this too. Especially those of you who have fallen OFF the blogging wagon. Maybe it would wake you up and help you realize what a great outlet this is!!

Seriously, though, I'm not going to tag anyone either...Afterall, I want to be "like Melli"! If you do it, though, let me know so I can stop by and read it.

Hugs and Happy Wednesday!!
