It's ALL Your Fault.

SORRY! I seem to be double booking my blog here lately. Sky Watch Friday is one post down. And it is FABULOUS.
(arencha curious now? doncha wanna go see it?)


Have you ever BlogLifted anything? Look at my sidebar... there are some fairly cute bloglifts there - widgets, etc. When I see a great idea I am smart enough to realize that it is good, and charming enough to get permission (sometimes) to use it on my site!

My Darling Fran' Leigh, of Bloggeritaville, has had a WONDERFUL idea. And after much charm on my part (begging and harrassment), she has allowed me to use it! Once a week, Miss Leigh takes a few of her Blog Frans and introduces them. I think that is a FABULOUS idea.

So, once or twice a week, I am going to go through my BlogRolls and lay blame on these people. THEY are the reason that I am a Dust Bunny Hostage. I would rather read what each one of these people have to say, than to do laundry, vacuum, mop, or dust....Any. Day. Of. The. Week!

They are my Dust Bunny Enablers.

I am going to try to do this in the order that they fall on the BlogRolls. Today will be different because it is the first time.




Of Course, since I BlogLifted her idea, meet Leigh! Leigh is that Cool Lady people gravitate toward. She is adventurous, she loves Life, and she posts OFTEN. I have offered her the potty on my sidebar because she is even more regular than I am. At posting that is. And she is not afraid of things that creep and crawl. She loves to dance and fish (sometimes at the same time) and she is a Roller Derby Queen. She is also a wife, mother, daughter, and Fran'. Her life is full and blessed. And check out her photo...isn't she Gawgous?! Very Hip. Very Chic. I feel better about me, just by linking to her!

And here is a big Leigh Fact....*drum roll please*

Her Blog has a celebrity endorsement... from Dancing With The Stars famed dancers Marlee Matlin and Fabian Sanchez. Because I PROMISE YOU, she was their number one fan. She has the restraining order to prove it. I'M KIDDING! I'm a kidder so I Kid. She really was a supportive fan during the season and I admire her passion! Go by and see Leigh and tell her Howdy for me!

**************************************************


You REALLY need to meet this guy. If I wait til I get to him in the order that he falls on the Blogroll, you will miss out on MUCH laughter.

Dullbert of My Blog Is More Boring Than Yours - I found Dullbert through Leigh's blog.

Dullbert left my favoritest comment ever on my blog. He told me that I started hallucinating when I showed you my tree. I have never gone by his site and not had at least a giggle. But most of the time, it is a belly laugh. And I have a lot of Belly. He takes actual news stories, gives them an awesome blog title, and spins the news, his way. Truth can be so darn FUNNY, and through his words... please. Just go. Don't pass go, don't collect $200, just GO. After you finish reading the rest of my post.
*****************************************************

One more...I should really introduce you to one more Blogfriend/Dust Bunny Enabler....

I KNOW! Jerri, the ultimate enabler.


She introduced me to Blogland and opened the door to filth like no other... in my HOME. Cause I didn't clean, not because of filthy blogs. You and your dirty mind and me and my dirty house.

Jerri is living the life, a Wife to a cutie poo husband, Nanny to two gorgeous grandsons (she is mother to a lovely daughter too, but you know how it is when the grandkids are born - they begin to come first!!), Master Scrapbooker (NO JOKE) and Antique Store Owner. AND she doesn't let it all go to her head. She is still 'just folks', just like me.

And I guess that is why she is one of my very best Real Life Best Buds. We have common interests, and I look up to her and aspire to be like her. She has tackled her life and her circumstances with quiet strength, and she has realized her dream of being a small business woman. I really do find her inspiring. AND she is actually my very first BlogLift. I mean I COPIED HER on the whole Blog thing to start with!

*********************************************

Next time, I will start at the top and begin working my way down. There are SO many Dust Bunny Enablers that I need to introduce you to.

Just be forewarned... visiting these particular blogs has been proven to cause an increase of Dust Bunnies in the home, and some have been known to be quite aggressive. There is one Hostage Situation in Alabama, that has yet to be resolved.

Leigh said...

Oh! Girl! You make me laugh. ALways. You make me smile. And I am up and dancing for the very fact that I was posted above Dullbert. HA!
Loved reading about me. I almost like myself after reading a intro like that. HAHA.
You are Fabulous!

Leigh said...

Oh, BTW- I love Jerri because she and I are sick in the head. Go to my blog and try and figure out what your house warming gift may be......

Dawn said...

Blessings!

Hey thanks for the shout out but as I've said over and over you all are the real bloggers you write real stuff, I copy and add a line or two and paste. But it is nice to know that someone is getting a chuckle every now and then.

Thanks to you and others, I get a big lift out of trying to outdo myself and post things that may surprise some and make others laugh a bit and most of all make lots of people aware of things that might not know much about.

When somebody actually takes the time to write a comment about my work and what I do, that to me is the biggest gift a person can give another. It is a smile on greeting, it is a welcome handshake, and it gives me and my family some hope that the dementia farm is still down the road.

You, yourself, are an inspiration to me. I come back not only to say, "thanks for visiting and leaving a comment" but thanks for taking the time to photograph things of interest and great beauty. Without that, blogging would be about as exciting as a wart on the end of my nose.

So, thanks for stopping at my blog. And rest assured, when you do, I will always try to visit your blog, in return, and leave a comment on your blog. I might not think your photography is ready for the masterpiece award, but it got my attention.

And this post is one of the best I have seen today. So there.

Sincerely,

Abraham Lincoln

You are sooo funny! I'm happy to be an enabler! Because my house is so dirty now the dust bunnies have all moved on, it's too gross for them!

Big Time Hugs and God's blessings comming your way!
