Should I or Shouldn't I?
Here we are at Friday Follow once again, and I find myself with a 'should I or shouldn't I?' participate attitude. If you remember I broke the rules a few weeks back, and openly declared I was doing so. I even lost a few followers, but that's ok, I did invite them to stop following me. (it was only a couple anyway.)
That being said, I like, no I love, Friday Follow. I think it's great, I have made new friends, found interesting new blogs, and gained new followers who like to read me. Great idea guys! So I am back, and at it again.
Now onto me, or us. I worked today, but had to stay home yesterday because both my kids are sick. They seem to be on the mend now, but it got pretty hairy with 2 kids having stomach flu. Now I'm feeling a little off, but at least I can take Pepto or something, that helps.
Being a single mom, or any mom for that matter, makes for some hard decisions. I had to stay home with them yesterday, all the while feeling bad about flaking on the guy I'm working with. We are in the middle of a few projects and I know he is counting on me being there to help. Today Grandma (my mom) was able to sit with SPF, and I took HM to a daycare at a local hospital for moderately ill kids. (I love that place! They are staffed with nurses, and they take his temp., give meds., give advice, etc., such a GREAT idea! Drawback-super expensive, pretty much like working for free.) But then today I of course felt bad for leaving my sick kids. Can't win for loosing, it's crazy. But we are all home together now, and they are doing much better. Now it is I who has a sick tummy, I guess it's more Pepto for me......

I don't get it. Why would you lose followers for participating in Friday Follow? I guess I'm not blog savvy enough to understand that one. I think it's a great way to meet new bloggers so I'm glad you stuck with it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by the Cellulite Investigation. Please don't work too hard to bring cellulite back, er... I mean... to bring it "in" for the first time in human history. My blog would be out of business in no time ;)
Don't worry Melissa, I seriously doubt it will catch on! If you click my link it will bring you to a FF post from a few weeks back and you will get it. Thanks everyone for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteI love Friday Follow too and I alwasy consider rebelling against the 100% giveaway blogs. Especally when the blogs are goveaways from other sites. I just don't get it! Anyway glad I found you and I am following!
ReplyDeleteYour kids are adorable! I am now returning the follow!
ReplyDeleteI always look forward to Friday Follow! I'm glad you're back to join in the fun again. The more the merrier!!
ReplyDeleteHi, thanks for follow my blog. I'm already a follower from past FF.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend.
I found you through FF, and to an extent I must agree. I have come across a few blogs now that obviously only put their blog on their to gain some traffic etc, some don't even put the logo of FF on their blog. I have gone through some many stages in my blog. First it was ONLY to find the frugal stuff/coupons, but really I was a dime a dozen, and I didn't get a whole lot of time to write things I wanted to write. Now, I do the giveaways on weekends, follow the meme's but put my own personality on them, and have the frugal stuff on a separate page, It takes awhile to see where you fit!
ReplyDeletefollowing you back -
ReplyDeletei have found some great blogs through ff - but agree about some who don't really participate.
have a great weekend!
