At last week's party, we had way too much "pun" with wordplay.  

This week, we've all had Olympic fever...

...which of course for me doesn't burn nearly as hot as it does for the Winter Games, but it is the Olympics, so it's still completely watchable.

 But what really jumps to my mind when I think of the Summer Games is this clip (sorry, I couldn't find a version to embed, but I just had to share it anyway!)

 And also this:

And, unfortunately, also this (another one I couldn't embed, but it's a bit graphic, so I'm okay with that).

But it's when I'm watching one of my favorite events that I really scratch my head in wonder:

Featured Post from Last Week:

In a fun twist, since we now have five hosts and co-hosts we will also have FIVE FEATURES.... but you will have to go check out the other four blogs to see if you were featured there!  ;)    

The featured post for Syncopated Mama this week is........



Shannon over at Of The Hearth shared this post and I had to laugh and wonder if she'd been a fly on my wall lately, because just the other day, a friend asked if I wanted to chat on the phone instead of by email or text.

 I told her I was SO not a phone person, but that I'd love to talk to her and so I got all brave and picked up the phone.

 We had a lovely conversation full of laughs (until my phone battery died) and I knew I needed to make myself use the phone more often.

Now, the new stuff!
