La Jolla, California seals
Today’s feature is all about a word. I have one word to describe how I feel.
The problem is that my word is not actually a word (or at least one that I can find through any search). The photo of the seals that I took last year while in California is a hint.
My one word description is:
Kerplutzed
See, I told you that it wasn’t a word, but it just fits!
ker-plutzed ~ adjective
: a sluggish feeling of being washed out
: a sudden urge for weekend recuperation
Examples of KERPLUTZED
*Sue is kerplutzed from the physical strain of car travel last weekend, and then coming home to an ever busy schedule.
*The best remedy for feeling kerplutzed is a heaping dose of weekend rest!
(from Sue’s dictionary)
Do you have one word to describe how you feel today? Perhaps even a made up one like mine? I would love for you to share it, and even though you cannot post a photo to go along with the idea, maybe you could tell us what a picture of it would look like!
BTW ~ Some of you may find me whiny to complain about needing rest, since I just got back from a beach vacation last weekend. Our trip was restful; however, travel is very hard on me physically due to my neck and back issues. The older I get, the harder it seems to bounce back from traveling.
Blessings,
Sue

Discombobulated – yup….that would be mine today!! I am praying you will feel more rested by weekend’s end. I loved this post, Sue. It put a smile on my face with your humor. Well done!!!! (I am totally using your word with my kids today!!) 🙂
Thanks Skye. I cannot count the times I’ve felt discombobulated (tricky spelling that one!). Hope you have a great weekend, too, and that life settles.
Victorious! I was reminded yesterday of the assured victory I have in Christ regardless of what is going on – what a blessing!
What an awesome victory is ours! Christ has won our victory. Thanks Shelly!
I think your word must have German roots :-). So, today, I will be on a hunt for a new word … and let you know as soon as I have one!
Ah! Maybe I’m part German in my roots somewhere! 😊
Oh, BTW … I found a one word description that fits me today …
unwintered (adj)
un-win-tured
description of one who’s previous winter-joy has been removed by prolonged wintery activity.
“While she always loved winter, at the end of February she found herself unwintered, mostly dreading the cold.”
antonym: winterjoyous
🙂
Very cute, Heidi. Made me smile. I imagine you are winter weary up there in Wisconsin!
Worn… I’m worn down from all of the things that are put on me. Physical and emotional parts of me have worn thin lately. Have a great refreshment this weekend and I hope the weather isn’t too bad for you. 🙂
You, too. I pray for renewal and restoration. Blessings
I love your word! Are you sure it’s not a real word? It sounds legitimate to me. Happy Friday!
As far as I can tell it’s not, but I’m not much of a word expert! Thanks!
Refreshed. After days of enemy attacked, the Lord has refreshed me. He has uplifted me; I am warmed by the sun. I am delighted by puppies and blue skies and His majesty.
Very glad Susan. Times of refreshing- bring them on, Lord! Thanks for commenting
Maybe it’s dyslexic for perplexed? Errrrr…. something like that.
Ha! Could be! 😊
Sue, I love your word and the adorable picture! I’m “stuffled”. It is a word I just made up, and it means that I have a head cold. The picture would be one I took of a poor pathetic looking snowdrop flower with huge drops of water and slushy snow hanging off of it. This too shall pass, and spring will come. I’m very grateful it’s just a cold.
Blessings ~ Wendy ❀
Wendy. That’s a cute word, but cold symptoms are never fun. I get a good mental pic of your snowdrop. Hope you feel better soon! Thanks
[chuckle] Love your word! Hmm… what is my word for today? “Pinched”. I’ve had a ‘pinch’ in my shoulder and neck, but otherwise, in good spirits. 🙂
Oh Rene. That is so painful, too. Sorry. Have been struggling with my neck lately. Will pray you get relief soon!
Thank you, Sue! Praying for you as well. ((hugs))
This reminds me that each person in my Bible Study Group picked a word for the year. God lead me to be aware of my Perceptions. Amazing what a word can mean to us. Thanks!
What a great idea, Julie. Gotta give that ‘word for the year’ idea some thought. Blessings on your weekend.
