In only 6 words

My gracious friend, Queen B, has so lovingly tagged me, her anal-retentive, OCD friend with a little meme. No, not just any meme, but a meme to beat all memes.

Could I say meme a few more times?

Anyway, since the time that learned of this wonderful "tag" my head has been swimming, with answers.

So, let's just say that if you want to stop now, do, for the words might flow for a long, long, long time. And they might not stop. Ever.

B, tagged me with a meme that started with an idea that was prompted by the book written by Larry Smith & Rachel Fershleiser, Not Quite What I Was Planning: Six Word Memoirs by Writers Famous & Obscure. The book is based on the story that Hemingway once bet ten dollars that he could sum up his life in six words, "For Sale: Baby Shoes, Never Worn."

Here goes...this could get ugly.

May Blog And Not Do Laundry.

Without a Diet Coke Get Away.

Can Saturday Be Every Day Please.

Mom I Need To Poop NOW.

One Who Can Not Say No.

What do you think so far?

I might write in six always.

And so I continue...

Here on Earth By His Grace.

Has Degree, Loves Being a Mom

Obsessive Compulsive That Is My Story

Mom to Two, Husband and Son

I really must stop now. Thanks B, this will be running through my head all night. And I'm tagging the following: Kelly, Elaine, Joy, Deanne & Cheryl. Please don't hate me.

Here are the rules:

1. Write your own six word memoir.
2. Post it to your blog including a visual illustration if you would like.
3. Link to the person who tagged you in your post and to this original post if possible so we can track it as it travels across the blogsphere
4. Tag 5 more blogs with links
5. Don't forget to leave a comment in the tagged blogs with an invitation to play

Oh, OK, here is just one more.

May Need Caffeine At All Meals

Goodbye.

Great Job!!!

Deanne said...

Thank you for including me in your meme, but i just don't have it in me right now to be very creative with my words. Or maybe it's because you did just a great job that I now feel the bar is too high for me to live up to. :)
