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... I have finally finished making my rounds to your sites.. letting everyone know about the challenge.. If you don't mind I would like to request that you guys post and remind ppl about the challenge somewhere in your posts during the coming week,   just incase I missed anyone.   This helps insure EVERYONE IN THE BLOGRING IS AWARE OF THE CHALLENGE.. ..I have given everyone a lil over a week to think about this challenge and post it.. so... Hope we get lots to participate.

Thanks again everyone!!!!

~ Your Royal Host~

Ms_BeautyExpert ~ Leslie

Posted 7/28/2006 at 2:14 PM by AroundJoy

Would enjoy doing this assignment but I keep my sub list hidden. If I listed them for this assignment that would defeat the purpose in having them hidden.

Maybe can do the next challenge.

Take care

I had my dates mixed up and got my challenge done on day early.  Leslie this was a great idea and I only hope I have honored my subs in a decent way.  This challenge was very satisfying for me!

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.

It is difficult to be that critical or complementary of ones self

I liked this challenge...it made me really think!  I was also a SAH for 12 years.  We too struggled financially, but it was soooo worth it.  I wouldn't have done it any other way.  Hope your weekend is going good!

Posted 7/15/2006 at 9:48 PM by Anonymous
I was happy that I finally got to participate but I'm still dog-tired so I haven't made it around to return the wonderful comments yet.  I'll get by to everyone ... even if it takes me a week!  And I'll try not to feel bad about it.  How's that for working on my perfectionism?  :-D
Posted 7/15/2006 at 3:39 PM by Dallawalla
Thank you for the challenge. It was very hard to be subjective and complimentary, but that's because we usually don't praise ourselves. Usually we're praising our children, our family and friends. This was a fun challenge! I'm looking forward to the next one!!
Posted 7/17/2006 at 6:50 PM by Meghann1965
It was very interesting to read the lists. I found that reading that someone was a good wife, mother, or daughter gave me another "list" in my mind. I know to be a good mother that person must have a loving heart, the patience of a saint, a sense of humor, a sense of the absurd, the ability to multi-task, and the skills of a seasoned diplomat. The fact that people could not leave those out of a list of attributes indicates that they are proud to possess those skills and abilities, and they should be! Thanks for an interesting challenge!

Posted 7/15/2006 at 4:28 PM by Moonfire9

I've looked at your writing challenges before, and I think that I would like to give it a try.  Mind if I join?  My brain needs some exercise, and this looks like a pretty good way of doing that.

Have a most wonderful day!!

i've seen several of my xanga friends responding to your writing challenges and have been meaning to stop in and introduce my self......so,....here I am.  Hello!

I hope you don't mind, but I took your challenge the other day from a mutual friend (ok123's) site.  I find your challenges to be original and very interesting.  I will subscribe to you if you don't mind. 

Come by any time.....

It is almost impossible to remember to be yourself after having kids.  Writing has helped me so much in that department.
Posted 7/21/2006 at 11:41 AM by neuroticfitchmom
Just wanted to let you know that I’m leaving this on everyone’s site but I will be around to catch up over the next few days.

 

Ryan and I made it safely here to Germany.  We have moved into base housing and just got our internet up and running… so within the next few days I should be back to normal here in Xangaland!  I’m so excited!  I’ve missed talking to everyone on here so much.  There is an update on my Xanga if you want to check it out.  I hope that you are doing great!  Take care and I hope to talk to you soon.

Courtney

 

Can't wait to come back to the challenge!!!

Hiya there Ms.Kween... Thanks so much for stopping by... Unfortately it was'nt until today I read all the comments... MY PUTER WAS DOWN:( 

Anyhow... RYC: About what I stated in being a great mom about me not being afraid to spank my kids... I was not at all refering to what  you stated about "Sparing the rod spoiling the child" Or how ever that goes... I do agree with what you said... I try my best to avoid spankings if at all possiable or taps on the leg... I try to utilize time outs as much as possiable.... I agree.. it could come across as promoting violence... But I think if you do it out of anger.. and chase them all over the house or something with a belt... THEN YES... IT COULD TOTALLY DO THAT AND BE VERY WRONG AND BAD!!!! How ever... I actually take my kids and discuss with them what they  were wrong for... or like for example.. Tristen my 3 yr old... SHE HAS THESE YELLING AND SCREAMING FITS.. HERE LATELY... I can't stand it... lol She throws that tamptrums.. so what I do is ... I get  her right in front of me and ask her "What did mommy say about that???" I make sure she understands what she is being disciplined for.... put her in time out 1st time I talk to her 2nd time she goes to the corner and stands in the corner for a couple minutes..3rd time is a tap on the leg... or a flick to her mouth... I don't get carried away... I think though sometimes you have to stand  your ground and make sure they understand I AM THE MOMMY!!!! Sometimes I think because parents don't discipline their kids RIGHT!!! That is why we hear about teenagers now days murdering their parents... Let me specify when I said "DISPLINE THEM RIGHT" I was not exactly refering to spankings... But basically correcting them..NOT LETTING THEM RUN YOU ECT.

It is terriable how I see some kids at my daughters school that are 8 and 9 yrs old. walking down the hall with their parents @ a open house and then hearing the kids talk to their parents and saying things like "SHUT UP MOM/DAD, I'LL DO WHAT EVER I WANT" And so disrespectful...... I admit I may be a little to hard on my girls.. but I think cause I was raised getting what ever I wanted and pretty much being a lil stuck up brat... Which I think if they were harder on me... I might of been further along than I am right now.... that all..

I am so very sorry Ms.Kween if I at all offended you... BUT WANTED TO MAKE SURE I MAKE CLEAR THAT I DON'T NESSICARLY BEAT MY KIDS!!!!!! No.. I totally do what the word tells us which is to "CORRECT OUR KIDS IN LOVE , BE SLOW TO ANGER ECT. " It also says somewhere to "NEVER CORRECT OUR KIDS OUT OF ANGER " That is is'nt good.. or what ever.. I have to alot of times when they have fustrated me to go sit on my balcony alone and calm down first then come back in the house and correct them WITH LOVE!!!! LOVE IS THE TRUE KEY TO MAKIN SURE THE RIGHT THINGS ARE INSTILLED AND RESPECT!!!!

LOOK AT ME NOW I RAMBLED ON AND ON!!!! SORRY M'LADY!!! I did'nt mean to but at the same time wanted to make sure .. I DON'T AT ALL TAKE THAT PARTICULAR TEXT IN THE WORD OUT OF CONTEXT AND TOTALLY 100% AGREE WITH YOUR VIEW OF IT!!!!!

Writing Challenge 2006-09 THE 12 BEST - Wednesday July 5, 2006

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

--> MY ENTRY <-- is close enouh to being ready that I can go ahead and make it public.  I may do some more elaboration, or I may just leave it as is.  Regardless, I wanted to go ahead and leave you the link as I don't know how much time I will have to get over here the next couple of days :-)

FYI Time2Quit is a spammer and a stalker who should be deleted & blocked.  Do not go to his site.  It contains trojans (like a virus) that he may be able to use to track your movement on xanga (even after you have left his site) and possibly even hijack your site.  It appears that he has already engaged in serious stalking of at least one xanga member.

I started early on the last one and got sidetracked and didn't get it completed! I'll make a good effort to finish this one! :)

hi there, I saw your comments on Tynee's site and just love taking tests, so I posted.  I don't even know you, but some of the comments are people I've seen around.

Anyhoo, I posted and did a link to your site.  I hope that's what you meant.  (can ya tell I'm over 40 cuz I'm clueless?) 

hey if you have a chance lemme know what blogring.  I'll bet that would be helpful!

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!

95 is pretty good!!   I love the challenges I just haven't been very active on xanga lately - only posting every couple days or so.
