Thirteen reasons why I love my Garden
I haven’t been feeling very well in the last couple of days, so I thought I’d take it easy with this post. Enjoy the photos. Oh each photo links to my flickr account if you’d like to see a larger version.

I was in my garden for the first time in perhaps two weeks yesterday. Yes that’s how bad I’ve been feeling. I don’t think I’ve even left the house for a week and a half. Isn’t that SAD? So my outing to my garden yesterday to take some photos was the first time I’ve been out in a while. None of the pics above are ones that I took yesterday, but you’ll see some of them soon. they turned out beautifully.

Have a Great Thursday!

A very long time ago, ok maybe last May, I submitted my site to be rated over at Bloggy Award. Now, several months after I changed this blogs domain to feverishthoughts.com my site has been rated.

My site was apparently rated last Thursday, if you’d like to read the article and tell me what you think you can find it here.

I thought it was pretty good as ratings go. He must have gone to the original site of this blog (http://triciaswaterdragon.com/blog ) and didn’t pick up on the fact that it had changed domains when “it took him to a new domain when he clicked on a link”.

I can’t find any kind of link on the Bloggy Award site to e-mail him and let him know that the link should be updated to my new domain, and that my sidebars roll up now, so they hopefully look a little less cluttered. I just did that last week, don’t you think it looks a bit better?

If you read the article of my site come back and let me know what you think of it.

I’m being stalked! No, no it’s not my old lady neighbor Sofie this time. Well, yes she still continues to stalk me by knocking on my door or calling me each day if she doesn’t see me at least 5 times a day. No this time it’s another blogger!

Shelli from Shelli’s Sentiments has fixated on me this week. I don’t know if I should be honoured or scared? I think I’ll go with honoured and pleased since she’s saying such nice things about me over there. You should check out her site if you haven’t been there recently. She’s really sweet and I love her site. She’s also the winner of the Compassionate Award from the Blog Emmy’s. She deserved the win!

Another person you should go visit is Doctor Mom. See that square thumbnail of her site in the left upper corner of the page? yep, she’s my renter this week. She’s renovating her cul de sac – thanks to someone called Mr. Fab who wants a bigger lot on the street, and she need a place to stay. The idiot of the week has been chosen. Go on over and see who it is, I’m sure you’ll get a laugh when you do, the photos are Hilarious!

It also turns out that she likes baseball – the Minnesota Twins I think. Speaking of baseball, my hubby and his dad when to the Blue Jays game last night. They beat Boston!

So go on over and vist Doctor Mom at You’ve got 2 B Kidding would you? Let her know that her favorite landlord sent you. I just know you are going to love her site.

You’ve got 2 B Kidding

I’m at it again. I finally decided to rent out some of my extra space to a deserving renter. I don’t think I’m going to rent every week. It’s a lot of work the way I tend to do it, but we’ll see.

I decided to rent out to a very creative blogger this week. The site appears to only be about two months old. I love the site design as well. Very easy to navigate and pleasing to the eye.

Yada Yada enough already, so who did I choose? Why it’s Doctor Mom from You’ve got 2 B kidding.

She’s got an interesting poll up on her site – pick your favorite idiot of the week from a group of four. Oh man that was a hard choice to make! Why don’t you pop over there and see if you think any of her choices should make idiot of the week?

The other worthy contenders for a piece of my lovely real estate were, in no particular order:

The Paranormal Blog – An interesting site that talks about hauntings, ghost sightings and other paranormal activities. Worth a visit, some of the stories are just fantastic. Oh yeah, and their from my own lovely city of Toronto.

Slightly Drunk – They just got satellite TV and there’s a big dilemma to resolve!

Am I famous Now – Wishing life were simple. It’s not, just when you think it is everything changes again.

Forever 17: She’s renting her space too and has a nice introduction for her renter, and in another post she’s dealing with an idiot.

Pathological Indecisiveness – Also pimping out their roommate in the current post. Lots of small posts on the first page to browse.

It’s Click and Comment Monday. The goal of click and comment Monday is for visitors browsing our blogs to visit either our current renter or another link from perhaps our blogroll. Once you visit the renter or your chosen link, visit that persons renter or someone from their blogroll. Leave comments as you go. Try to visit at least 5 sites in this manner, spread the love.

Please leave a link and a comment if you are a Click and Comment participant, oh what the heck – anyone can comment!:
