M'Ladies I'm trying something new here on your Kween of the Queens Blog Ring. . . a guest host! This sweet lady stops by with new ideas from time to time, so I've decided that if any of you have ideas that may spark an interest, I'm going to let you guest host the writing challenge! For the first time, please welcome Ms_BeautyExpert! She has an idea that sounds like it should be fun! Look for her post later this evening right here on Kween_of_the_Queens! Enjoy! ~Kween How do you do fellow Queens and Lords??
Thanks for the lovely intro Your Royal Highness… As you should know… I am one of your fellow queens… Ms_BeautyExpert My name is Leslie so you guys know… I had this awesome idea and suggested it to her majesty… I will title this challenge “HONORING YOUR QUEENS AND LORDS” (Challenge 10 2006)
We all know we love to be appreciated or recognized rather Our jobs, at home what have you right? Well I have decided we need to appreciate each other as queens And Lords of such a lovely blogring… I have noticed that a lot of us are on each others subscriptions List as well… So I am going to suggest to pick a minimum of 5 Queens and or Lords And a maximum of how ever many you would like to do, But basically we are going to appreciate or recognize the Queens and Lords we choose. I won’t put a limit on how many you would like To recognize or appreciate… Next to their name make a comment of why they’re special to you On your subscriptions list or why you enjoy going to their page.
PLEASE NOTE: DON’T BE OFFENDED IF YOUR NAME DOES NOT APPEAR ON ANY ONE’S LIST… EVERYONE IN THIS BLOGRING IS MUCH APPERCIATED BY YOUR ROYAL HIGHNESS I AM SURE OF IT!!!! And well although I haven’t had the honor of seeing Everyone’s page in the blogring.. I APPERCIATE YOU TOO!!! So Let’s not take it personal if we don’t appear on someone’s page… This is for the fun of it and just to see how many of us know or are subbed to one another!!!!
Here is the info on the challenge : Like most the other challenges I will run it for 3 days just like Ms.Kween DUE DATE: August 6th, 2006
Dates that the challenge will run August 6th-8th Once you have posted it like all the other challenges come by here and let us know you have posted it so me or Ms_Kween can link your site for everyone to check out your royal honoring of your fellow Queens and Lords… Have fun with it be creative and do it how ever you choose!! THANKS EVERYONE… ~Your Fellow Queen~ Ms_BeautyExpert ~Leslie ~ EDIT~ Ok my dear queens and Lords...

M'Ladies; That was an interesting exercise! I found it was very difficult for many of you to leave your families out of the equation! Noting that you are "good moms" or "good wives". That's fine, I totally understand that! We, as mothers and wives and sisters, and daughters so often concentrate only on others! What we forget as women is that we are just as human, special, and needy as those whom we care for! We have the tendency to forget about who we are during the child rearing years. . . and then are shocked after the children leave because WOW we did have lives before them and we did come fully equipped! I'm Glad this challenge opened your eyes! Although we relish our families, (a great joy in our lives) We are so much more than that! My personal goal was to be a wife and mother (yes, I was raised in the 'old school'). I had to work as most of you do, but my ultimate goal was to be a SAH Mom. I've been so fortunate that I've been able to accomplish that goal! Even with the financial struggles along the way, I feel blessed that I am one of the few who have had this opportunity, but I have learned that I am more! Just as you are more than what your job description is! Yes, we have great love for our children, our husbands, our extended families, but sometimes we forget to extend that love to ourselves! Remember, (one of my favorite sayings) "If Momma ain't happy, nobody's happy"! Love yourselves ladies, give your family the gift of a happy, fulfilled woman! I'm very happy with this challenge and thank you all so much for joining in! Until the next time. ~Kween Posted 7/15/2006 at 1:22 PM |
M'Ladies It appears we have begun! Enjoy! theprettysister(For GreatAuntMary) Posted 7/12/2006 at 10:15 PM |
M'Ladies, New writing challenge today! In our last challenge, I asked you to list 12 of your "annoying habits". I was surprized to find that a lot of those "bad habits" seemed to ring a cord with us. . .many of us have the same ones! In this next challenge, I'm asking you the following question: What are your 12 BEST qualities? Now, you may list personality attributes, physical attributes, but you may NOT list family! This is exclusively about YOU! This challenge is to be posted on your blogs on THURSDAY, JULY 13 AND FRIDAY JULY 14. That gives you an entire week to think about them. Please remember to let me know that you have posted so that I may post a link to your sites. Also, please put a link to either this site or the BLOG RING on your entries! Because we have 95 members, please , if you get time, post a blurb about the new assignment on your daily blog so that all members may have a chance to participate if they want to. We'll call this challenge: The 12 BEST Be fair to yourselves, be kind to yourselves and be honest with yourselves. . . you certainly have AT THE VERY LEAST 12 WONDERFUL ATTRIBUTES! As always, have fun! Use your own styles! ~Kween Posted 7/5/2006 at 3:10 PM |
M'Ladies A very happy 4th of July to you all! Just a quick notation here to let you know that our Blog Ring now has 95 members! Although not all are "active", that still says much of this blog ring. I know that it is not the biggest membership, but I'm still proud that enough of you have taken the time to join and pass the word along to others! As long as you enjoy the writing challenges, I know we will keep growing! Thank you all! ~Kween Posted 7/4/2006 at 4:56 PM |
