Works For Me: Um, NOTHING, Actually...

You know what "works for me" today?  Taking a brain-breather from being all creative and problem-solvish.  Y'all go ahead and list your ideas below, and I'll be back next week with one of my own!

May I pretty-please ask that before you e-mail me any questions about WFMW you check the guidelines here?  It will probably answer your question.  If you still have questions, feel free to send me an e-mail.  Thanks!

[Overwhelmed!]

Thanks for "nothing". :) Just teasing. I look forward to one of your tips next week!

[Cheri]

Thanks for making it so easy to be included in WFMW. This new blogger now has a personal sense of accomplishment (yes, I'm wearing a goofy grin!)

[LammyAnn]

You deserve a break....I took a break ages ago because I was totally blank (well, that, and I was on vacation). I dunno how everyone does it--week after week. I'm not as clever! :)
We (heart) you Shannon!

[Lauarie]

Thanks, Shannon, for giving us the opportunity to do this! The ideas flowed fast and furious at first, now they have slowed down to a trickle, but with so many participants that doesn't matter. In any given week somebody (several somebodies) will come up with good ideas.

[Pass the Torch]

Since Overwhelmed with Joy had the same *brilliant* WFMW today as I posted (hyperlinking in comments), I added the second one about communicating with teachers.

So Shannon, I gotcha covered on your non-idea Wednesday;)

We all need a break now and then. :)

Between this and Wordless Wednesday, I've come to think of Wed. as "blog visiting day." I'll be visiting around a little later -- looking forward to it.

Dear Shannon,
Thanks for having the availability for us to continue to share our ideas! But every once in a while we need to "take care of the me in mommy".
I just finished reading Lisa Whelchel's book - awesome!
Blessings
Deborah

[Merci]

My first venture into WFMW! I love this idea. I read the guidelines and sure hope I did it right. Looking forward to learning something new every week! :) Blessings, Merci

[Shannon in Arizona]

No problem! :)
Brain rest works for me sometimes too......lol

[Julie]

Enjoy the break!

[Kim]

This is my first WFMW to share and I thank you as well for providing this. I look forward to perusing the archives.

[Charlsie Swadley]

Shannon thanks so much for hosting this on your blog. This is my first time, mostly becuase I am a bit computer illiterate but it was not as difficult as I thought it would be! Look forward to reading what everyone else is writting about today!

You are getting sleepy...you are getting sleepy.... You will hear only the sound of my voice...

You are Shannon of Rocks in my Dryer. You will fountain forth with ideas of astounding cleverness and usability. You will solve the missing sock conundrum and forever put to rest the laundry pile...and you will only do these things on Wednesdays....

Hee hee hee

Oops! I forgot to put the subject in parentheses, so I deleted my link and re-entered.

[Meredith]

I haven't done this in weeks; everyone has such good ideas I'm afraid to duplicate! Thanks for such a hot weekly event to look forward to!

[Manic Mom]

What works for me? Snuggling in the bed with my five-year-old yelling at Dora, while the laundry piles up on top of piles and piles.

Man, that makes for a great day!

[peach]

I totally get the idea of a break! Enjoy the tips from everyone else and relax. Hope you have a great day, Shannon!

[Amy]

Enjoy your break, Shannon! You deserve it!

[granolaGirl]

Thanks O Gracious Hostess with the Mostest. I hope you learn something fun today.

[Sarah's in the midst of it]

What works for me? Sitting in my pajamas at 10 a.m., eating breakfast and reading WFMW ideas, all while the banshees run wild in the family room:) Have a good day off!

[Shalee]

I see that you took my advice from last week... Wise woman, that you are.

[Stacey]

It's just nice to get a break sometimes!!

[Amanda]

This is probably old news to everyone, but I really like this so I thought I would share.

[Mel]

Sorry, I accidentally left mine twice and I don't know how to delete the first one, :(.

This is great though! Thanks for all the tips!

[momrn2]

Good for you!! Sometimes what "makes life easier" is just taking a break!!! I'm glad you felt able to do that friend! :-)

[Faith]

This makes me feel like maybe you are really a real girl after all! I was beginnning to think you had it all figured out - I mean all of it! Whew! You're just regular! I can relax now!!

[kacey]

I just found "Rocks in my Dryer" last week. I figured anything Antique Mommy links would be good reading --- and I was right! The blogasphere is full of great writers and ideas! Love it! Love it!

[Karen]

No blog, but this works for me:

Whenever I make a roast chicken, I throw the bones right into the crockpot as I carve it up .... then after dinner I just pour in cold water, turn it on, and let is simmer all night - wonderful, easy stock! (just pour it into a container, and freeze until you are in a soupy mood)

[Vanessa Pino]

What a great blog!! I just found you, and can't wait to become a regular reader.

[Sandra]

This is a really cute idea; I've responded and wanted to add...what *really* works for me is to hire someone to do the housework so I can do the barnwork!

[Sandra]

Did I do something wrong? There's a "delete link" next to my name, #116.
