Blue Monday - Happy Labor Day!

It's Blue Monday! To participate:

1. Post about something blue on your blog. It can be pretty, ugly, funny, old, or new as long as it's blue. Leave a link to this blog on your post.

2. Place the Blue Monday button on the top of your post so that people can easily spot it. Place another Blue Monday button on the sidebar of your blog.

3. Mr. Linky will be up after midnight. Return here and link in with Mr. Linky by leaving your name and the Permalink to your post. To create a Permalink, click on your Blue Monday post title and copy all the stuff in the http window. It is a longer address so that people can find your post even later in the week--whenever they get a chance to visit.

4. Leave me a comment. Visit other Blue participants by clicking on their links. Make someone's day; leave a comment.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you look closely, you might see blue in each one of these.










Happy Blue Monday!

    This is my first visit to your site. You are one busy lady! I will be back. I appreciated your review of the Stephen Baldwin book. His story spoke to my heart about the power of prayer.

    Thank you Sally. I may not have it right now, as I do no know much about what to do in this blog world. I know the basics, but do not always understand some of the things I mess up. I love your post today. Very cleverly done.

    I had to link in twice. For some reason the first one goes to a non-existent page. I have no idea why. So I did it again and the second one works.

  39. LynnSeptember 7, 2009 at 12:31 PM

    That "made in China" comment in the cartoon.... wonder how many Americans may not be able to "celebrate" Labor Day today because their jobs went to China? Love the humor in these. Sometimes humor just hits so close to painful truth for some. Praying for our country and the whole economic mess that affects us everyday.

    HI Sally! Don't you just love Maxine?! She's so full of wisdom! :) So sorry I didn't link back to you. I thought that I had, but guess I didn't double check. I'm at my daughter's using a laptop without a mouse which I'm not used to. (These new contraptions! HA) Anyway, it should be corrected now. Have a happy rest of Labor Day!!!
