Artful Plans for Artful Bloggin for Artful Pink Saturday

It’s a Special Pink Saturday! How do I know? Cause Beverly said so in her Tuesday Email which said…

…In case you didn't see my post this past Saturday, I want to let you know that Pink Saturday is featured in the Summer (May/June/July) issue of Artful Blogging in honor of our upcoming second birthday.
Oh Yay, a Party…and there’s more…
…Pink Saturday, May 29 we will be celebrating the second birthday of Pink Saturday. Start planning your birthday posts for fellowship and fun. I hope you will all post on this special day, and that we have a record turnout.

This GRIT promptly punched the REPLY button with…YES for Sue at CollectInTexas Gal!!!

…And started PLANNIN’!

Plan #1.…Go to Hastings and get ARTFUL BLOGGING.
 So, Sue, how’d that go?
Yep, went that very EmailTuesday to grab up my copy before they SOLD Out to all the Artful Bloggers in San Angelo, Texas. “Artful Blogging, hmmm, never heard of it, but I’ll check in the computer. Oh, yeah, we do have it. It’s right over next to the Gun magazines. Don‘t know how I didn‘t know that…I know all the Gun mags.”

Found the Gun magazines and sure enough there it was…Artful Blogging Spring 2010. That’d be Feb/March/April. Back to the CamoClerk who checked his artful computer…which shot out… In Transit!

Check back tomorrow said Rambo.

Plan #2... Get pictures of Pink Roses taken and ready to post. Just in case Plan #1 is a NoShow! HiHoney’s Artful Butcherin and Beheadin last Fall has really paid off in the most beautiful Roses from our Four Bush Rose Garden.

Back to Plan #l and Hastings. This trip I wear my Pink T-Shirt that without a doubt states I mean business! Rambo is not there and I start all over again with my Artful Blogging request. That was Wednesday. Did it again on Thursday and again today…that’d be Friday…the day before Pink Saturday!

I’ve decided that all publications of importance…at least to me…are distributed in Alphabetical Order. And we all know where TEXAS falls in the State Alpha-Order. Makes me wish I was a Gun Toten’ Alaskan.

So, Ya’ll, here I am without the Plan I had Planned On, but a Plan that I Planned just in case the first Plan didn’t Plan Out so well. Say that real fast!

Yep, my Backup Plan all along was to do a bit of ‘Artful Plifering’ off Karen at A Scrapbook of Inspiration. She must live in an AB or C State as she got her copy in time to do a Post for LAST Pink Saturday. So, Thanks, Karen for your generosity in the use of your photo, and congratulations on being included in the Pink Saturday Feature of Artful Blogging.
My Goodness, would Ya'll just look at that last name on the Photo Credits.  It's Girl Raised In Texas Sarah at Hyacinth For The Soul.  I'm so proud for Sarah and her lovely Blog.  Please visit Sarah, she is a Gracious Texas Hostess with Classic Tablescapes, Fabulous Foods, and Beautiful Photography.  Congratulations Sarah!

Congratulations Beverly at How Sweet The Sound and a big Texas Thanks for Putting Pink Saturday on the BlogWorld Map! 

Today there are 203 Participants, and  I bet the Pinkies will be keepin' the WWWeb Smokin' Hot visiting and celebrating!  I know this GRIT has Plans to do just that and make one more trip after Artful Blogging.  I just hope it's not to Alaska.  I'd rather go to Alabama...I know some Pinkies there!

PS...How do ya like my 'Little Pink Lady'?  Doesn't she remind you of Beverly's? 

PPS...Thanks Jeanne at Backyard Neighbor for the ShoutOut...Ruby is OK and says Thanks, too!
