Are you ready?

actually: [ak-choo-uh-lee] adverb
as an actual or existing fact; really.

I chose this word because I never actually tire of hearing it, and it can never actually be said too much.
I have actually been doing quite a bit of research on the topic of Wednesday's Word so that I may be fully prepared to offer nothing but the best for my peeps. Actually, in other words, I may have been eavesdropping just a tad on conversations that are none of my business. Before you go calling me names for invading others' privacy, please know that I actually enjoyed every minute of it. And I knew when to stop listening. I'm not actually a terrible person. Of all the words I have overheard, only one still actually makes me giggle and my eyes water like crazy because it's actually, truly a one of a kind word. I won't actually give you the definition of this word, because it's so much more fun when you can actually make up your own. Ready? The word is: Spoonydippin.

I feel as though I should actually give you a brief background on this word. But only a brief one. The creator of this word is actually related to Rinky-Dink and Popsicle. And HE (yes, HE!) totally surprised me and is making me giggle so hard right now, thinking of him saying this word, that I actually can't even see what I'm typing. He is normally so calm, cool, and collected that he is rarely seen giving in to his immature side. Oh, hang on while I wipe the tears away. Hooo whee. (I can actually see him researching this word with his young son in the photo above. Although the definition thereof may have come much, much later.)

So there you have it folks. The word of the day. Or more accurately, the word of a lifetime.

Actually, I think actually really is actually one of the funnest words to say. It actually feels so good coming out of my mouth. My daddy is one funny spoonydipper. Actually.

Actually, I don't think I say that word very much but actually when I actually think about it, i actually do say that word quite a few times! I can't beleive you managed to use that word 14 times in that post. I love spoonydippiners because it makes the world feel more round and colorful.

Too funny! Actually I have a word for you that I hear over and over and over again. (Seriously) Natalie uses that word so much and her girls even use seriously, seriously in every sentence! It is a big word to come out of a 4 year olds mouth and actually pretty amusing! hugs

I wonder if my man will ever grow his hair out? Don't you think that when a man has hair that is thick and rich like a man's hair should be, it should be long? No man-bun style though. Bleh. Kinda like this... But seriously. Who didn't have a crush on Grizzly Adams?  Hunta boi is playing football again. This year, the 2016-17 school year, will be his last year playing high school football. Say what?!? For reals. He's a senior y'all. A SENIOR. Can you hear my panic? Did you just see my eyeballs pop out of my head, roll across the floor, gather dust mites and come a rollin' back to me? That means we (I) only have a limited time left with him at home. The days are slipping away like seconds on a clock. Much as I try, I can't seem to stop that mean old man, Father Time, and his clock that is tick-tick-tocking away. Though I must say, we are SO proud of who he is growing up to be. Of who he is today. And we really are very excited to see where his lif...

I know I've told you before, but I'll say it again. I love to get my hair done. There's just something about having someone else play with my hair that puts me into a hypnotic state. It's soooo relaxing, and I love the feeling of fresh, soft, just done-by-someone-else hair. It's also something that I don't do often for 2 reasons: 1) I'm lazy and don't like having to maintain my hair. 2) It can get pretty pricey. It may be because I fell into one of those hypnotic states that the following disaster occurred. I guess my first clue of impending doom should have been when my stylist decided to get her nails done. At the same time that I showed up for my appointment. Now, I'm a compassionate person, I didn't think it was a big deal, so I shrugged it off, and waited patiently for her to finish. My next sign on the road to "bad hair-dom" was when she asked the stylist next to her what colors were used on my hair previously, because she j...
