Excellent Peeps, Batch 6

I make them with pink…

I make them with blue…

I go for the green…

And floral ones too…

Music. Dancing. Laughter. Light.

25 new buttons, a cute little sight?

____________

I wonder if  this latest batch

Has  new peeps thinking “Hey, what’s the catch?”

____________

But verily Jannie says unto y’all.

Nope, really no catch at all.

____________

Making sidebar buttons is fun for me.

(I like things artsy, as you can see.)

____________

Do the “old” buttons then disappear?

Heck no! You’ll find those puppies here.

____________

If you’re new here, it’s just a matter of time

Til  YOU  get a button, bloggin’ buddy of mine.

If Ever You’re Sad, Dear Blogger

git yourself on over here
and gaze upon your button
on my special Friends Page,

knowing that you are very
special to me, and not diluted
in any way because there

are so many buttons now,
and growing – when I stop to
design and code a new one

instead of walking the windy song moors
swimming with Blue Bunny’s dolphin friends
and photographing mystery flowers.

And if you don’t have a button
yet, or dream of me making you
and Even Lovelier & Better One,

just keep on popping in here
and commenting, knowing that
sooner than later I will notice

your Extreme Awesomeness,
make a friend connection with you
and lo — ye shall be buttonized,

which comes with a 24 / 7  invitation
to join me up in my wine-drinking tree
for as long as we both shall love.

My Only Regret With The Sidebar Buttons Is…

each new one can’t

stay up top forever.

Yet, each friend

stays top in my heart.

And whenever

someone smiles

or holds a door open

or says a kind word

they grace the top

of love’s sidebar.

Yep, corny as

An Ishtar Song, that

last bit, but  true.

That was a Friday Flash Fiction in 55 words for The G-Man.

Except I can’t wait ’til my usual 5:55 to post this, so here you go!

It’s never too early for luuuuv. 10:55 a.m. now.

(At least I got a 55 in there!)

P.S.  Edit…

I have so far made about 60 buttons — and I have about 150 friends, so please be patient until your button appears!

All buttons end up permanently linked in a post like this, then go up here, a page I’ll eventually organize into attractive archives, as the code grows and grows.

Funstering Friends, 2

People ask,

“Jannie, why do you make those sidebar buttons, anyway?!”

And I answer…

“Why plant flowers when so many already grow?

Why write songs, paint, sketch, sculpt, or weave words into poems and stories when so much art already exists?

Why keep dancing and laughing and flinging our kilts to the wind?

WHY sail these friend buttons out to sea?

Simply… because love is waiting everywhere and every day’s a celebration.

and dont werry, groovie babees,

I mean, don’t worry!

All buttons that roll down and drop off my sidebar will reappear in a recap post like this.

(Funstering Friends are Excellent Humans who pop in and out of this blog,

and ones who may or may not pop in, but whose sites I like.)

(The first Friends recap was here.)

(Yes I’m getting better at the buttons, thank you for noticing.)

AND…

in stunning conclusion to this sidebar button post, here are a couple recent self-portrait attempts to show you how clean I got my spare ribs pan one day.

Great Peeps To Know — Recap 1

Welcome to my first sidebar buttons recap!  Whoo-hoo!! 

Break out the beer!

20 buttons instead of my original 21 plan, because 5 rows of 4 just looks soooo…. tidy!

(And I live for tidy here in funsterland.)

Please note I’m making the buttons a little taller now, so if yours was one of the shorter first ones, it doesn’t mean I love you any less!!

Plus, I’ll probably link you all up more than once over the next 40 to 50 years!

To reiterate my sidebar plan… a new button will appear up top every day or 2, rotate down, then drop off after 20 days —  but will magically reappear in a scintillating post such as this!

The Endometriosis Petition will stay permanently.  There were less than 40 signatures on it when I first met Chronic Healing Jeanne almost 2 years ago.

Now look how many there are!!!

ANYONE can sign the very worthy petition. (Takes just a couple minutes.)

Highly Esteemed Blogger Sheila’s button will stay up until the ”Moms in Business” contest is over. (Takes 10 seconds to vote for Sheila’s super-excellent Aventine Hill all-natural bath and body products.)

And… because I love you all so much and care about your swell-being, I HIGHLY recommend the following book by everybody’s Bold Beautiful Blessing, Tess Marshall…

(Yes, that’s Kelly beside the book.)

I also HIGHLY recommend Tess’ The Bold Life blog.  She is a super, super special and inspiring fun sweetie!

(And she now has a better Alexa ranking than I — excellently deserved!  I better get my love marketing mojo cranking and catch up with her again!!) 

And a bit unrelated… here’s a photo of Kelly when she was 4 with miniature waffles on her eyes…

Posted with love from, Jannie who will enjoy posting a Friday Flash Fiction 55 for the G-Man next week!
