Isn't the price of gasoline going out of sight?





Since I'm talking about gasoline today, I'm showing a pretty, blue car and a pretty blue gas can.

When attempting to find gas for your car, it's frustrating to look for bargains, since it seems none exist. However, I have a tiny bit of good news for you. Just click here, then click on your state or plug in your zip code, and you will find the cheapest gas in your area! Try it and save $$.

Sorry, but this applies only for the United States and Canada.



Happy driving!

Happy Blue Monday!

Blue Monday - President's Day!

Hello! It's Blue Monday! For those of us who blue, it's a holiday! It's also President's Day--doubling the celebration!

For instructions, please click here.

Please notice the Blue Monday Code on my sidebar. Feel free to put it directly onto your Blue Monday post.

Visit other Blue participants by clicking on their links and wishing them a Happy Blue Monday!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Look at this beautiful blue sky over Mount Rushmore, where four Presidents are memorialized. I copied this from the internet, and I seriously doubt that the sky is so intense.




Presidents Day is celebrated on the third Monday in February.

At the beginning, the holiday was implemented to honor George Washington. It was celebrated on February 22, which actually is Washington's birthday. Later on, many states connected it to Lincoln's birthday (February 12) even though Lincoln's birthday was never a federal holiday.

Nowadays President's Day is said to commemorate all US Presidents.

☆ ☆ ☆


I found a blue example of a sign businesses can buy and display. All federal buildings are closed.





However, many sales are going on.

Are you going shopping?

Will you be buying something blue?

Happy Blue Monday!

Blue Monday - Review Billy Elliot

Hi! It's Blue Monday! Welcome.

For instructions, please click here.


Enjoy the day by visiting other Blue Monday participants, clicking on their links, and leaving a Happy Blue Monday comment! You might also visit later in the week as you find the time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Johnny and I went to see Billy Elliot, the Musical, last Tuesday night. I absolutely loved it; Johnny grumbled about the British accents being hard for him to understand. I had no trouble understanding. However, Johnny did appreciate the music, singers, and dancers, so I give this a thumbs up!

Four boys rotate in the role of Billy. Note the blue shirt and blue pants on this star. We saw Kylend Hetherington, 13 years old, from Auburn, Michigan. What a talented young man! He sang, he acted, and oh boy, did he dance! He got a standing ovation and gave the audience an encore. What a night!


Based on the 2000 British film of the same name (pictured below, starring Jamie Bell as Billy Elliot) the show tells the tale of a young boy with a dream of becoming a ballet dancer against his father's wishes. Both the play and the film are set in the North East England during the 1984/85 coalminers' strike.

Look at this vertical leap and notice the lovely blue shirt.




There's plenty of blue in this advertisement for the movie.




If you ever get the chance to see either the movie or the play, go for it!


❤ Blogger ❤ Love ❤

Cindy at Whimsical Musings sent me some Blogger Love with this beautiful blue tag, made especially for Valentine's Day! Thank you, Cindy! Just look at all of the shades of turquoise blue!





Happy Blue Monday!
Stay warm!
