Why not Pink with a touch of Blue? Well thanks for asking!!

My sister actually asked me about this. "Are you trying to say you're a man? You have man parts?" I told her to wait for the entry. There are several reasons why I chose to title my blog that way. As you can see from my background, my daughter is in a bright pink tee shirt and it is in striking contrast to the beautiful blue ocean in front of her. It is one of my favorite pictures of her. It was the first time she went to New York and the first time she had even been on a beach. That is one of my memories that I will treasure forever. So that is one reason for Blue with a touch of Pink.

Then, there is my PCOS. What does PCOS have to do with a name of a blog? Well, one of the traits of PCOS is having an overabundance of testosterone. So although I do not have male parts, I have always had an excess of their hormones. Now I'm not saying that this is the reason, but I have always been more partial to the color blue to the color pink. I always wanted to hang with the guys than be social with the gals. I can't stand being in a dress! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE being a woman!! There is just a little something disturbing about having to "adjust yourself" when you want to sit down for fear that you might sit on yourself. Even as I'm typing that, I'm cringing. So when I was thinking of a name that could encompass my "tomboy" attitude, Blue with a touch of Pink seemed to fit.

Also, I'm not always a radiant beam of sunshine. I'm more like an overcast, slightly rainy day. I'm not saying I'm not a happy person, because I am. I'm just not chipper. I try to see the positive side of things but I'm rational and down to Earth and reality is just not "unicorns and glitter" regardless of how much I would love for it to be. Am I blue? Yes, but that sweet little girl of mine makes me want dinosaurs not to be extinct and unicorns to be real and fairies to fly in my garden and, God help me, peace on Earth! So there in all her glory is the little bit of pink to my blue world.

So there you have it. My simple reasons for a silly blog name. It certainly sounds better than "Purple" or some other strange name I could have come up with. Besides I have actually become quite fond of my silly blog with a silly name. 

Next time: Detachable shoulders? I'd buy some!!
