Mellow Yellow Monday’s

I have recently discovered the latest, hippest, coolest ‘blogger ritual’.

[And you know I would NEVER keep a secret like this from ya’ll.]

Over the past week [while diligently surfing my favorite blogs, leaving comments, supporting the team, and “All That Jazz” ] I just happened to stumble upon a little gem of an idea.

By the way? This is fast becoming quite the “Cool Kids” Trend For Mondays.

[Just sayin’]

I originally discovered this while visiting ‘One of my All Time Favorite Websites/Bloggers’ known around the Internet as Drowsey Monkey.” The ‘official title’ of this latest, hippest, coolest, ground floor idea, is called “Mellow Yellow Monday’s.” Apparently, Mellow Yellow Monday’s was started by This Blogger. Who says, and I quote…”Because life is better with a splash of yellow“.

[So. Very. True.]

So, Thanks to DROWSEY MONKEY and thanks to This Blogger I’ve decided to do my best and get in on the action. Here is my FIRST attempt. This is my Mellow Yellow Monday contribution.

As I searched around my house looking for something YELLOW, I realized my To Do List was written on a yellow pad!

    Great idea! I’d love to participate but I’m lucky if I get my Monday post up by the end of Monday, if at all, mosts weeks. Even now, I’m commenting here when I should be getting ready for work! Happy Mellow Yellow Monday anyway!

    Don’t for get to add your link on Mister Linky over on the MYM blog … that way everyone can visit 🙂

  8. Fun idea … oh and your to do list looks like a lot more FUN than mine!

  9. They say the color yellow has a mellowing effect on people. It’s my Mom’s favorite color (she likes orange as well). Who doesn’t need help mellowing out on Monday? Also, Mellow Yellow isn’t a bad song (by Donovan, I believe), and mellowing out isn’t a bad activity. For a wannabe hippie like me this is good news all around. And if it’s the cool new trend then there’s really every reason to go with it!

    Moog beat me to it, again… LOL

    I’ve got yellow post-it notes on my desk – does that count? 🙂

  11. DANG! I wish that was my to do list- want to switch. Mine is yellow too- only it has a lot accounting on it and no dinner out with anyone…

  18. Lee says:

    I think I need to create a to-do list to create a to-do list. Just not a habit that I’ve ever been able to develop successfully. Regardless, I like the yellow legal pad look for Mellow Yellow Monday. :0)

  19. AngryMan says:

    I always make a To Do List.
    Every.Single.Day.
    It’s part of my OCD.

    Lee:
    To do Lists are the best!

    Angryman:
    I will NOT be having dinner with him.
    In fact, I think IT might be OVER.

  21. Mimi Lenox says:

    What a cool idea. I may try it sometime. I love your To Do list!

  22. AngryMan says:

    The Mac gave you an ultimatum? 🙂 Hope I didn’t bring up a sore spot . . .

  23. Roshan says:

    I just looked around and to my dismay the only thing yellow that I have near me seems to be a crumpled post it note that I must have brought from the office. Pathetic!

  24. Jaffer says:

    Roshan ! Aniyan ! What are you holding in your hand !

  25. Meleah says:

    Mimi:

    Angry Man:
    My Mac will always love me!
    Its HIM that is being a douche bag.
