Being Boring on a Saturday Morning

Boring Posts for Saturday -- now there is a concept after this blogger's heart! I read about it at Dawn's Sufficient for Today, where she designed several pretty logos. Pretty is good, too.

To explain the meme, Mary at Hope Echoes writes:

I started my ever popular feature--Boring Posts for Saturday for two reasons. Reason one-- very few bloggers post on Saturday and that is when I have the most time to read, so I miss reading new stuff then. Reason two--I find that I write some opinionated and long winded posts that talk about things that I really believe or things that bother me and when I put them out during the week people comment around them--the day before, the day after, and I realize that most of you weren't as fascinated by my topic as I was.
Yep, me too, absolutely.

Now that I've gotten that down, I realize I don't really have much boring to write about -- besides the usual, of course! So maybe I ought to link to the meme schedule I put on my House and Hold blog one time. Or, wait, why not; I'll reproduce them below. I had collected a meme for every day of the week. Some of them are probably extinct now, and there are some that overlap, so I never really totally used them all.


Menu Plan Monday






Tackle It Tuesday













Weigh-In Wednesday










Works for Me Wednesday











Thankful Thursday














and Thoughtful Thursday (I couldn't find the original explanation for that one but here's a graphic)











Poetry Friday

I've never actually done any of these though I did have a modified daybook called Sierra Highlights going for a while, based on the Simple Woman one.

Oh, and how could I forget! Homeschool Weekly Reports --







I did quite a few of those, though sporadically, here and here.

Edited to add a few more I have found recently:

HT: Erin










I found the following two recently through Like Mother, Like Daughters

Frugal Fridays













Teaching Tuesday -- (I found it on Angie's blog Fostering Truth but I don't know where it originally started) -- I made a button though, I love making buttons!

  2. How fun... I'm still trying to find an exact definition for MEME but in the meantime I'm playing along too!
