Daily Status Challenge

What does it mean when my greatest morning challenge is "What should I put for my status on FaceBook?"

Some may not consider this a challenge, but everyday, as I change it, I try to have a purpose behind the words.

I am a lover of words and do not want them to just be empty, dull, filler. That is like eating a cookie dipped in 'chocolatey coating' ! What the heck is chocolatey anyway? Brown sweet wax? Yuck! No waxy sweet coloured words on my status!

After much contemplation, mulling, usually at least one hot drink...this morning it is Stash Chai Green Tea, God usually drops a good idea into my welcoming lap. Often it may not have the same impact for others as it does for me, but that is not my challenge.

Venting at the latest chagrin, growling about a royal tick, barking re: the etiquette of city drivers .... not my style. Encouragement, happiness, JOY, delight, enlightenment ( such as the comment about chocolatey coating.... ha ha) and anything leaning towards the positive- those are the inspiration I try to draw from.

Glancing through status posts in the morning I have noticed that some Facebookers have a running theme, some are very frequent in their posts, some are always frustrated, some are always funny, and my DNA cousin has a 'word of the day'.

Here is a glance at the status posts I read this a.m. , and don't worry, names have been concealed to protect the innocent!

~7 more days if work till holidays. Getting closer.

~is sleeping.

~Start of the four! Crisp morning, lunches done....love my christmas tree. Its getting closer to christmas...the count down is on.

~It might snow?! We've got curry today @ noon. It'll heat you up and put a smile on your face.

~is trying to figure out what day is the best to finish up her shopping?? Gotta head to Courtney/Nanaimo and get the rest of it done. Thinking of making it an overnighter so I don't get home to late...

~'s word o' the day is "yuletide"

~Well seems the snow has stopped at least for now. Next the rain and then what it'll freeze overnight? I hope not, I'd rather have the snow thanks.

~zvs... einen studienplatz kriegt nur, wer versteht, wie er sein abi bekommen hat und die bewerbungs- und auswahlverfahren versteht ...oO

~is so very jealous (I know I'm not supposed to be!) of my many friends who woke up to snow this morning!!! But not me.....no snow here....I'm so jealous! Let it SNOW!!!

~DESTINY - Somewhere there waiteth in this world of ours For one lone soul another lonely soul Each choosing each through all the weary hours And meeting strangely at one sudden goal. Then blend they, like green leaves with golden flowers, Into one beautiful and perfect whole; And life's long night is ended, and the way Lies open onward to eternal day.

~is finally feeling Christmassy! Outside lights are up, Tree up on Thursday night and then some serious shopping needs to get underway!

~The Big Wave Surfing event in honor of Eddie Aikau!!!!

~What a celebration or should I say "Whobelation". Thanks ladies for another amazing event!

I look forward to status posting time, as unpredictable as it is. There is a moment that feels like that second prior to dipping your toe into the ocean, deciding what the temperature is. Pure excitement! ...okay, so that was a blatant attempt at drama.

Speaking of drama, I have a breakfast date with my mum and a friend in an hour, still sittin' here in my jams, and I haven't posted a status!

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm................
