Smiley Saturday - South Park Fun

smiley-saturday-2.JPG

Things that made me smile this week:

  • We WON netball last Saturday (I’m sure it was all those vibes you sent us!!!). I normally enjoy playing whether we win or lose but this was an important game to win. We hadn’t beaten this team and some of the younger girls were getting the attitude of “we can’t beat them”. Hopefully it’ll give them the confidence needed heading into the finals. The win meant we finished 2nd on the ladder. Our first final is played next Saturday. I’m hoping I don’t choke under the pressure.
  • Farmboys little brother became a dad for the first time on Thursday. Making me an auntie for the 8th time. A little boy. I’ve already chosen (and about to order) bubs Christmas gift. Now I’m just hanging out to see the little guy. Hopefully some time over the weekend.
  • After a busy week last week, it’s been nice to have a quieter one. I’m still doing too much though and almost had a meltdown on Thursday night. So Friday was a nice quiet day or pampering myself with a long soak in the tub and some holiday research.

Online Fun:

I came across this South Park Studio during the week and have had fun playing with it.

Here is my first creation:

South Park’s Princess Pink Lightening

South Park’s very own Princess Lightening!

These are great images to use on Forums or other places where an avatar or similar is used as part of the profile (if you don’t want to use a photo). I have used this one on my new Squidoo account.

South Park Lightening as a Cheer Leader

Here I am all set to cheer for the netball finals!!! Lightening the cheer leader, now there’s a SCARY thought!!!! Laughing The colours aren’t quite right (we’re red, blue and gold) but you get the idea.

Now, if this final image doesn’t make you laugh, well, we have a REAL problem!!!!

Rebellious Teenager

Here’s Lightening as a Rebellious Teenager! Not that I ever was. A rebellious teenager that is. Okay, I was, but a much quieter, sneakier one than this. Looks like fun though doesn’t it?

Warning: This can become a little bit addictive. Use with caution!

I look forward to reading your smiley saturday posts this week. A special thank you to those who participate week in and week out. I really appreciate your support. With no netball this week, I’m hoping to actually comment on each of your posts this week. I know I’ve missed some of you of the past couple of weeks.

    I’m off to check out the opposition today (after work). I’d also like to watch our A grade play and give them some support.

    Glad you are getting a few days to rest and recover. Look after yourself.

    Congratulations on the win. That really deserves a wide smile. Those South Park designs are great I might give the site a try, too. Like the last one.

    My whole website design is based on the little avatar I made.

    Given the amount of time you spent brushing your hair (when I knew you) as a teen, I’m really having some trouble with the “rebellious teenager” hair ;-)

    Congratulations on the big win. That indeed should make the girls feel good. Just don’t forget to give yourself some rest.
    The South Park always cracks me up. Have fun and smile smile smile.

    Sharon - that sounds rather serious!!! I heard A grade won so that’s good.

    Princess - I have lots of fun with Smiley Saturday. Thanks for the congrats and positive feedback. :)

    Widdle Shamrock - surely you are wise beyond your years!!!! :)

    Cellobella - I wondered about that. I’ve always enjoyed your avatar!

    Trish - glad to have you back and thanks for the congrats.

    Stuffy - ROFLOL. I had completely forgotten about that. I only used to brush once per locker visit!!! LOL. These days I only brush it once a day - it’s no longer long and straight.

    Russ - you’re right, I do need to rest. I think the South Park characters are very cute - but I’ve never actually seen the show!

    Marita - me too! My “inner brat” coming out do you think???? :D

    It really was lovely - especially since it was about 80% my stuff and she’d only added in a small amount rather than do a separate load! She’s great :)

    Congrats on the netball!!!

    Hopefully I will get to some more Smiley Saturdays now :)

    @ lightening, if that last picture is your inner brat then you are more than welcome to come over to my place and be bratty :grin:

    I’m finally getting around to visiting all this weeks Smiley Saturday blogs. Find if I do it too early I miss some.
