My Fine Is… $475.10

January 17, 2007 by Tricia

Now here’s a different kind of meme. I hadn’t seen this one before, well not until that Kyle tagged me yesterday.

So, the point of this meme is to add up how much of a fine you would have – if you could be fined for the adventurous activities listed below, that is. If you want to steal this meme and try it on your own be my guest. Just come back and tell me what you fine totaled. Inquiring minds wanna know, you know?

You don’t have to confess your answers, just the amount of your fine, unless of course you want to give us all the juicy details. I’m sure that would keep some of you blogging for a week.

Hmmm it could keep me blogging for a week. I’ve apparently been a very bad girl.

Chilly January Beach

January 14, 2007 by Tricia

Join Green Thumb Sunday
Join

no swimming

You know, when I started Green Thumb Sunday, oh so many months ago, I really thought that when the winter months rolled around I’d perhaps have photos of snow covered pine or cedar branches and trees, frosted, ice covered dead flowers that perhaps looked interesting, icicles, or my snow covered garden in winter.


But no … I can’t do that. It’s barely snowed at all this year. We’ve had a few very light dusting’s of snow, often in the middle of the night that’s already been melting away by dawn. No shoveling. No icing roads. Nothing of the sort.

So I’m afraid that I can’t display frosty winter garden scenes. Not today. Not yet anyway. If this keeps up I’ll be digging out old photos of winter nature scenes that might be suitable for Green Thumb Sunday Winter editions.

The photo that I decided to show you today was taken last January. It was a nice winter day. Perhaps it was only -5 Celsius (23 F). Most winters that would be a fairly nice January day. Perhaps it was even 0 C (32 F).

Either way it felt warm enough and it was a bright sunny day, so Chris and I went to the beach. Something we tend to do more often in the winter months than we usually do in the summer. Yes, we’re weird that way.

On the beach you can see more snow than we’ve had so far this Winter. I love the No Swimming sign. As if! Do you know how cold Lake Ontario would be in the winter? Brrrr

Gardeners, Plant and Nature lovers can join in every Sunday, visit As the Garden Grows for more information.

Even the animals are getting spam

January 13, 2007 by Tricia

Grab the Scavenger Hunt code.
Photo Theme. Join the blogroll. Visit participants.

This weeks theme is Technology

moosespam

You know it’s getting bad when there’s even spam directed at Moose!

I run four mailing lists. They’re reptile related since my two websites are all about reptiles, so between the mail that I get from the lists I run, other mailing lists I’m on, email and comment email that comes in from my many blogs, and the three blogrolls that I run I get over 1000 emails a day. At least 300 of those emails each day are spam. Sometimes half the email I get is spam. It’s crazy!

Plus, lately my blogs are being hit really hard with spam too. Each day when I check on my blogs I find anywhere from 50 to 400 spam comments! I’m so thankful for Akismet.

monitorart

Now you know what you can do with your old monitors. This gave me an idea. I should collect a bunch of old monitors and build a monitor archway leading into my garden. Nah, that’d be tacky wouldn’t it? LOL

Please Only list your name if you have a recent Photo Scavenger hunt post. Non Photo hunt participants links will be removed. Also please don’t link and run, that’s just rude.

13 Great sites to visit

January 11, 2007 by Tricia

Thirteen Things about Great Sites I’ve Visited Recently
I’ve come across some great sites recently and I thought I’d take a moment and give you a short description each site.

1…. Jessie from Hunna’s Happenings has the most adorable photo of her niece up for yesterdays WW. I enjoy reading all of her posts. She writes in an easy friendly style that makes you want to just keep on reading. Jessie also started the Postie Carnival that’s open to all members of Pay/perp0st. Carnivals are a great way of getting new visitors to your site, and finding new sites to enjoy.

2…. I think that Chris from the Thermal blog might be becoming a regular reader on some of our sites, and as a result I’ve been checking out his site too. Chris’ site is fantastic. He’s got a mix of helpful advise, pointing his readers to sites that will help them with their own sites, fantastic photos, and some amusing posts. He balances out his posts really well -a few helpful posts followed by something light hearted. Good work Chris. Oh and before I forget it looks like Chris started another blog about a month ago and it’s called Blog-Op – tons of great website and internet related info on that site. Check them out.

3…. SubDlerium is a site about the day to day life of a student, still living at home with the parental units. This site is pretty new having just started in December. It will be interesting to see how it develops over the next few months.

4…. Lisa, from My Thoughts, Ideas and Ramblings is, I believe, a stay at home mom. She talks about family life on her blog, and spreads some love here and there through out her community of blogging friends. I like her writing style, and I enjoy her posts on the pay/perp0st forums too. She has some good one liners from time to time.

5…. A links blog is a great site. Just as it’s title says it’s a blog that will not only list your link in the side bar, but will make a short post about your blog. Right now they are asking people to write about the site in the hopes that more people will come along and list their sites. Sounds like a good deal to me! Check it out.

6…. Oseas Adelso is described by Oseas as “Just a simple, multi-media blog where I’ll show significant (and insignificant) events of my somewhat average life.” He’s a University student that I’ve met through my work with Pay/perp0st and he seems to be a very nice guy. He’s got a post on his site about the new iPhone that’s really cool.

7…. Arts a fellow Canadian and he named his site “We were the cool kids” I really enjoy his writing style – It’s a little sarcastic, but humorous at the same time no matter what he’s talking about. Poor guy hurt his eye when his glasses broke.

8…. Jeremy from Haunted House Dressings Just had a horror story published over at Chiaroscuro. It’s really good! Go read his scary story and then visit his site and let him know what you thought of it.

9…. Osman tagged me to write up my five favorite movies a few days ago. I hate to admit this but I don’t watch many movies. I can partially blame my husband for this because he just hates going to movie theaters, however he can’t take all the blame. We do have a vcr, a dvd player and all the movie channels in our full cable package. LOL Ok so I just don’t watch movies! So how about we call this movies I’ve enjoyed over the years? Jaws, Pirates of the Caribbean (I still haven’t seen the new one!), The Shinning, Matrix and Falling Down (older Michael Douglas Movie). Osman, who tagged me for the five favorite movie meme has a nice little site himself. He’s a University student living at home and also trying to make a bit of extra money on pay/perp0st. That’s where I met a number of the bloggers I’m highlighting today. You should go and see his Wordless Wednesday post – what a beautiful photo.

10…. Another site that I’ve been enjoying is The BenSpark I go there to see what the photo of the day is, and to catch up what’s happening in his life. He’s another blogger who’s style of writing I enjoy. Oh, and I like his photo a day so much that I’ve even put a banner highlighting his photo of the day in my left sidebar. Do you see it?

11…. I think that’s more than 13 sites now! Hopefully I didn’t miss anyone that I said I’d spread some bloggy love to. Please dear visitors, if you’ve read this far visit a few of the sites I’ve listed. You’ll like them. I know you will.

12…. I’m still feeling like cr*p. Remind me to start to go to bed on time? My messed up sleep cycle is really making me even sicker. I’m thinking of finding some way to just knock myself out for two or three days in a row. Maybe that will reset my body and kill the pain that I’m in.

13…. Finally finished! I am going to bed now! Goodnight, good day, and happy Thursday to you.
