Probably one of the coolest things I have ever seen! Besides this....You? Do you have any cool sightings for me?  I would love to know...AND thank you for the book suggestions!  I am so excited, I will be taking the first train out to dysfunction junction this weekend...AND I know the video below isn't real but it sure is MAGNIFICENT...

PEOPLE IN GLASS CASTLES SHOULDN'T THROW STONES....

Can I let out a sigh of relief? Okay, not yet, BUT almost...What a nut I am. What was I thinking?  This bright side project took over my BLAHG, sheesh, YOUR Blahg for all intents and purposes because I write it for your amusement...

I finally got my biological mother, Marie to take a gander at the blahg on her own accord without me begging, pleading, cajoling or resorting to bribery. Her thoughts?

"Ai doon't understaand,' she said.
"What do you mean you don't understand?"
"Well, eet deedn't make any senze," she informed me.
"What didn't make sense?" I asked, annoyed by her suggesstion that this masterpiece should be incomprehensible
"Well, eet deed ent. Joo were here, joo were there, I don't know, I kent esplain."

I mentioned this to my Fancy since he was over her house the day she read the Blahg and he left it on her computer for her since she can't figure out how to find the blahg--no matter HOW many times I show her, write it down, bookmark it , subscribe her to it etc. His response, "Oh, she was reading the comments." Just like that, she never got to MY part, nope she just read all the answers to a question and they were all different and she thought I was coo coo as usual. 

Speaking of coo coo, this book makes my family seem 'normal' an amazing feat.  This is a MUST read for anyone thinking their family is off, this will certainly make you either A) appreciate them more or B) make you want to break out your own memoir to Johnny one up Jeannette Walls (very hard to do)....

HOME SWEET HOME :: BRIGHT SIDE PROJECT II

{please visit the bright side projects new casa}

It's official! The Bright Side Project has moved on to Part 2.  I tried to name it in my copious spare time and was only able to muster up these fine specimens: the bright side project(bsp)-Shine, BSP-Treasure, BSP-Trinket, BSP-Get Lucky (St. Patty's and all), BSP-I'm Lucky, BSP-LUCKY, hmmm? Even though it has started I am still open to finding a great name for part deux which will feature 31 accessory designers from around the globe, yes accessories, so you can tote your sunshine with you (both literally and figuratively).  We have a line-up of necklaces, earrings, rings, handbags, shoes, scarves, hats, etc. I am a huge accessory freak (okay, maybe I am just a freak) and whilst I am planning out the future of your bright side projects I am trying to choose things that will be universally appealing to individuals with my same obsessions. I have many and I figure if you have stayed this long with me you have many too. So, in the spirit of obsessions I have given The Bright Side Project it's own home www.thebrightsideproject.com.  This will be the landing ground for the next 31 days of goodies and I want to be able to add some tips and tricks (and learn a few myself) on how you are turning lemons into lemonade right now,  I am ALL ears, so please feel free to email me with any sort of story, photo's etc. on how you and yours are making it through.

The Blah, Blah, Blahg needs to get back to its original intent to write about nothing and everything.  I am sure y'all are joneseing for pics of my shirtless Fancy and naughty pup 'bout now no?  I know I have been chomping at the bit to write about all the nuttiness I have gotten into this last month.  I do want to publicly thank you ALL.  All my long time readers that I consider my pals (you know who you are, I am ALWAYS excited to read your comments), the new readers that have started to play along, it seems we all have a universal sense of humor and I totally appreciate that I finally feel that I'm not the only 'weird' one out there (thank you internet).   You still have plenty of time to answer some of our artists questions and win great works and start hedging your bets for your designer loot.  If you stop by now you can possibly win designer Kerri Jone's of Tenthings gorgeous, violet femmes headband, it rocks!

And now back to our regularly scheduled programming...
