Week 111!
My friends, you are reading the words of a full-fledged docent! Yes, my graduation tour was today, and it went well! I received my lanyard and will soon be able to lead tours at the museum. I look forward to creating more tours about all different kinds of art. Look for a post about my graduation tour soon! Anyway, welcome to the Weekend Traffic Jam Reboot! Look for the link up to go live Thursdays at 9:30pm EDT. Sue’s post goes live in Australia on Friday at 12:30 pm.
Wouldn’t you like to know more about your hostesses? We’ve got you covered there! Please feel free to drop by the others to see what their blogs are all about! We are a very diverse group of bloggers. Links to each blog appear below.

Marsha from Marsha in the Middle started blogging in 2021 as an exercise in increasing her neuroplasticity. Oh, who are we kidding? Marsha started blogging because she loves clothes, and she loves to talk or, in this case, write!
Melynda from Scratch Made Food! & DIY Homemade Household – The name says it all, we homestead in East Texas, with three generations sharing this land. I cook and bake from scratch, between gardening and running after the chickens, and knitting!
Lisa from Boondock Ramblings shares about the fiction she writes and reads, her faith, homeschooling, photography and more.
Sue from Women Living Well After 50 started blogging in 2015 and writes about living an active and healthy lifestyle, fashion, book reviews and her podcast and enjoying life as a woman over 50. She invites you to join her living life in full bloom.
As part of our new year reboot, we are now shining the spotlight on a different blogger each week. We invite you to stop by their blog, take a look around and say hello! This week, we spotlight Patrick from Adventures in Weseland.

Sadly, we learned Friday morning, Patrick had passed suddenly earlier this week. If you want to read more about the wonderful person he was, I urge you to check out Shelbee’s post. She knew him well and writes so beautifully about the person he was. Patrick will be missed in the blogging community for his beautiful photos as well as his generous spirit. Rest in peace, Patrick.
Featured favorites from last week…

Congratulations, Marsha! Not that I ever had a doubt it would go well with you being so determined and keen.
Have a great weekend (and dream about art!) 🙂

Thanks, Cat! Both of my sons said they’d never seen me nervous before. But, I was able to work through it…there was definitely some stumbling. Have a fabulous weekend, too!
I just read on another blog that they heard Patrick died suddenly last weekend– I have no idea if that’s true but have noticed he hasn’t posted anything since then.
Congratulations on your graduation! You worked so hard and I just knew you’d do great.
Thanks, Joanne! I’m very happy about it. Shelbee wrote a beautiful post about Patrick’s sudden death. He is a big loss to the blogging community.
