Flowers for Friday – for Ladybug

August 12, 2005 - Posted by danielle

I wasn’t going to post any Flowers for Friday this week. I basically came home tonight drained of creative thought.

I haven’t quite figured it out but certain blogs, like Honestyrain’s lead me to come up with outrageous (for me) comments. For some reason, I feel funnier when I make comments on her blog. Of course, the disadvantage of this whole blog-thing is that it is hard to know if anyone is laughing with you (or at you, for that matter). So, maybe I just feel funnier to myself. But that’s okay. At least I make ME smile with my comments!

Where was I? Oh yes. Sidetracked again. Sorry, I think I’m secretely avoiding having to get up and prep the house one more time for yet another showing tomorrow. *sigh*

Occasionally, Ladybug’s &/or Squirl’s blogs inspire me to make outrageous comments too. I don’t know why. Haven’t quite figured out what it is about Honestyrain’s in particular that does this to me.

odd.

So, after reading Honestyrain’s latest post and coming up with yet another long complicated comment, I thought that surely

“Did you just call me Shirley?”

I was saying,
SURELY I could post SOMEthing today.

So, I looked through my Texas Flowers folder of pics, which at this point, is kind of like my ol’ standby for flower pics when I haven’t taken any lately, and lo and behold! I found this.

It seemed particularly appropriate this week, with the stuff that Ladybug is dealing with and all.

I think of it as light in the darkness.

It may look familiar, in that it is very similar to the one I posted on the Saturday before Easter. But if you click on that link, you can see the difference between that one and this one.

This One is pink with yellow and not white with yellow.

Proof! that my eyes still function very nicely this late at night, really they do.

I just have to prop them open with toothpicks is all.
;-)

So, Ladybug, dearie, this one is for you.

This pic was taken in the Spring of 2003 with Tweedle-Dum (the Sony Cybershot DSC-P71). I haven’t adjusted anything in photoshop, except to crop the pic. Oh and to burn a leaf that was yellow so that it wouldn’t be distracting.

    I was noticing that your comments at H-rain’s house were a little “bolder” than your normal fare. In a good way.

    Such a sweet girl you are.

    I’m going to have to go read those “bolder” comments.

    Danielle, do I lead you astray? You have to remember whose family Bucky is in. :-)

    Beautiful pics, nice thoughts for Ladybug.
