The Wheel In The Sky Keeps On Turning

well, i figured i'd title this with a little song of the day for you. at least it's a good one. unlike some other bloggers i know. ehem ! :))

anyhow, it kinda goes with the wheels in my mind that are turning at the moment.
i have actually not been totally comfortable with the "new" title of my blog since i changed it a while ago. and, well, recently one of my blog buddies, has suggested... actually more than once... that i change the title to

"Heart And Soul".......

there are a couple reasons for this...

1. Queen Earlene.. refers to my mother... I, am the "finest" part.

2. people think that I am the Queen Earlene Part.. and sometimes call me that in comments etc.... which for reasons, some undisclosed on these pages as of yet... i don't enjoy...and i always correct the error as quickly as possible.

3.. and to repeat myself... it just doesn't feel right to me. it really hasn't since i made the change. maybe because she's dead... maybe because... i just don't know.

4. i'm also trying to move away from the mange part of "soulmange" ... it's still my online name i guess...but more often than not... is shortened to soul... except when i'm logged in...and DUH...it just occurred to me that i can change THAT too.

so anyhow... i am on the verge of a title change yet again... but have decided to let y'all help me this time.
below are a few ideas... to include the one suggested... now y'all just let me know which you like better.... or suggest your own... and we shall go from there...and majority shall rule.


heart and soul

my gypsy soul

ok... i've drawn a blank... throw some suggestions...or cast your vote now.

NOTE: if anybody needs a good laugh.. read the comments and see OLDY"S... i almost fell out of bed laughing ! she had like twenty suggestions... all hysterical ! (some inside jokes, but some are GREAT!) go see.

EE said...

Here's a few...
Gone Fishin'!
Catch of the Day
Hook, Line, and Sinker
Get REEL

I think your title should have something to do with fishing, since it's such a big part of your life.
Sorry I haven't been around much, have been soooo busy this week. Tomorrow, we will not have to leave the house before 5:00. I am soooooo psyched! I'll get to clean the house and get caught up on my blogs:)

EE.. those are pretty good too.
what to do, what to do???

souls' busted bass
souls' keepin it reel?
souls blog of whoa!
(is that spelled right?)

i've fallen and i can't "GET UP" LOL

do the "children" (normally, it's chickens) have large talons .

LOL (y'all know i love napleon dynamite... but surely someone already has the delicious bass one already...
otherwise,,,

soul caught you a delicious bass !

yep... i do like y'alls ..not so much mine.. fishing related titles...ee you had some good ones!the thing is... i don't fish in the cold...so half the year... it wouldn't have much to do about fishing...so i'd be stuck with a content with an unrelated title.

so, i'm in a bit of a quandry there,

anyhow... keep em comin...let's go another couple days...or until one just jumps up and bites me. and when it does, i will see what y'all think of that one too. i hope everyone likes the one i decide on.

but i do need, and enjoy the help.
i had no idea this would be so entertaining!!!

by the way... i don't mind dropping "mange".. in a way, it's my road to healing "those wounds"... but i can't drop soul... that's what everyone knows me as.. plus.. i just feel good with that part of it.

"soulmate"... soultater!...souls psyche fest ...

marriage is bliss, i mean fish...

NO. i don't know what came over me there.

ok... my dog is getting rained on... keep thinkin peeps.

EE said...

Ok, I like the one about Soul gettin' reel.
What about Soul Survivor?
Something about Soothing the Soul?
Soul Train? (teehee)

josie2shoes said...

Oh God, don't you start making me replay songs all day too! :-)

Oldy's reply was HYSTERICAL - it should be a blog post in itself! There are so many wonderful ideas from everyone that I can't begin to pick a favorite. Go with the one that feels like the best fit! And yes, change the soulmange to Soul, or whatever. I had a mangey cat once that looked something like your dog - had no fur on it's legs, poor thing. Will be fun to see what you end up with! You should start a blog of great blog titles! Would help some poor folks who are verbally challenged and do things like "Sam's blog". ewww, how original!

josie2shoes said...

Ok, so which one of you was REALLY Queen Earlene's Finest? Will it be a fight to the finish on that one? hehe

josie2shoes said...

Hey Soul Sister! You gonna leave us hanging in suspense here??? :-) What a posting slacker! LOL

SOUL said...

alright! looks like

"soul Survivor" it shall be.

Josie, i see you have your baby on your pic there. how sweet.

I still don't know how to put a pic there... my dahlink sistah never told me how to do it when i asked her... like over a month ago! ugh.

ok.. i guess i don't wanna be called a slortch or a post slacker...so i suppose i shall get right on that.

sure do wish i had me a "at my beck and call fairy" today! y'all just wouldn't believe this house. i am so worn out i can't even get up to get more coffee. well, i could, and i'm sure i will have to... i just don't want to! ugh.

ok.. gonna go post..after, i drag my ass to the coffee pot!

Soul, my new pic is Smokey, my cat. I got tired of not having a pic when everyone else did. You get a pic on your comments by adding one to your profile. Go to the edit profile and then enter the URL for your pic. You will need an online photo storage site like Photobucket or whatever to store your pic at.

I am wiped out now too. I spent three hours at the farm doing some sorting and packing. Any major physical exertion, especially in the heat, just wears me out. Now I am ready for a long nap!

My house needs attention too. SIGH
