I...I started with CRUD and went straight to Zombie. I'm feeling much better now and my craving for 'brain food' has passed.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure but it might have all started by being 'tagged'. An hour later I went into a vegetative state. <BR/><BR/>Needless to say I didn't participate. I fell for it once when I was new and didn't want to disappoint the person who tagged me. That's when I learned that people really don't like to play that game. I'm sorry I bugged those I tagged with one exception. You're still it :)WiseAcrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13383341492994868833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-70659621122324689982009-01-24T07:16:00.000-05:002009-01-24T07:16:00.000-05:00Hello IGW : ) Thank You !!!I have a few pictures o...Hello IGW : ) Thank You !!!<BR/>I have a few pictures of this "Black Admiral" on my flowers and driftwood.

January is my most rotten month of the year .. it truly smacks of total "blahness" and every bit of crud out there is attracted to me like a frigging magnet.

I think it is a good idea to step up to the plate and say how you feel so no one's feelings are hurt by mistake ?<BR/><BR/>Jodi .. that is a great new ID picture you have girl ! You look like a librarian (I can say that since I have been one ? LOL) .. I had no idea there were such things as chocolate cranberries "gimme some !!" haha .. eat all you can for me OK ?<BR/>Yup .. when Blotanical was relatively small it was a good way to get to know each other .. but now .. it is way too big and most of us can't get into that sort of thing .. so it is a good idea to sidebar your own "take" on it : )<BR/><BR/>Debbie girl .. you are so darn busy I don't know how you do what you do , do , girl !! .. I think a side bar post saying how you feel is very much in order for you .. take a few minutes .. have some nice herbal tea, a bit of chocolate and relax .. so I can feel better ? haha<BR/><BR/>Hi Robin .. thank you girl ! .. I take so many vitamins and supplements I am at a loss as to why this "stuff" can sneak in under the radar and GET me : ( LOL<BR/><BR/>Hi Jan .. Thanks girl .. January has not been one of my better months for sure ! ..

I so need some quality time in Home Sense by now .. hubby hasn't gone on his golf trip and it might not be until April now ..

As you said, keeping a blog in and of itself is time consuming. And when you don't feel that great, it's even harder to just do that!<BR/><BR/>I've been considering doing something similar in my sidebar that says it 'gently', like yours does:)Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844013803699228989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-18326809438455643722009-01-20T00:02:00.000-05:002009-01-20T00:02:00.000-05:00I completely missed autumn this year being sick wi...I completely missed autumn this year being sick with one thing after another, so I know the feeling. <BR/><BR/>I hope you are feeling better soon!

I'll eat a few for you. <BR/><BR/>With regards to games, awards, memes etc...I no longer participate in them either; or if I do (I liked the 'what is your signature plant' discussion,) it's a case of do it myself and not tag anyone else. Like with Garden Bloggers Bloom Day, or the Garden Design workshop; you can opt in or not as you choose, and you don't have to pay it forward or tag twenty five other people or anything like that. <BR/><BR/>There are more bloggers doing posts such as yours, too. I think in the beginning the memes were a good way to get more people participating and more bloggers known, but now they've become overwhelming. I see the same sort of thing cropping up on Facebook and I refuse to participate there, either.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107236871193698777noreply@blogger.com
