Hi everyone and happy Friday! I can't believe Christmas is in three days! I am NOT ready for it. I have had a stomach virus for six days. Six days of nausea and bed rest. It hasn't been easy and I haven't finished my Christmas shopping! I am hoping that I will be well enough today to finish up! I am planning to go to Krissy's house for Christmas dinner, too, and I want to be well for that and I can't get John sick, so this bug must leave my system today!
I haven't posted "Wordplay" for almost a month because I was deciding whether I wanted to continue it or not. I was only getting a few takers. I have decided to continue it after all. I wanted to thank those who join in with me faithfully!! I really do love words. They are a passion of mine. I play with them constantly - Mulling over them, doing crossword puzzles, looking them up, writing poems, playing Scrabble. I think words are beautiful!! If there are only one or two takers in my game, well, that is how it is going to be then. I hope there will be more, though! Thanks, Krissy, for encouraging me to continue the game!
I have a fun, fun, fun Christmas "Wordplay" for you today! Do you remember Mad Libs when you were a kid? Today's "Wordplay" follows this concept. I would like you to click on this link. Fill out the Mad Lib. Post it in your journal if you would like! Come back and leave your full entry URL so we can all read it!! I don't want to give it away so I will post mine tomorrow. Was it fun?? Do you have any suggestions for any future "Wordplay"s?
I had a lot of fun filling out that particular Mad Lib. I did a google search and it was my favorite one. I am off now to try and finish up what I have been unable to do the past six days...
Christmas blessings to all and don't forget to visit Joy To The World! xox

Tried the wordplay for the first time. I'm glad they gave examples because it is a long time since i was at school doing English grammar.

Sorry you are feeling under the weather, I do hope it clears up soon. Being with family is the most important part of the season, so I would hate for this bug to keep you from having dinner with Krissy and John. Get better! :)

ReplyDeleteHave a very merry Christmas!

Oh, I hope you are feeling so much better by tonight. It's so sad to be sick at Christmas time. There is a nasty cold bug at our house. My mom, my husband and I have it. It's put a slight damper on things. My prayer is that you are recovered and will have a wonderful Christmas Day!
