Well here I am again. It’s been an incredibly busy week and it hasn’t stopped yet.

On Tuesday, Pumpkin had what they call a field day at school. It’s when they get to play outside all day and have fun. They have games and lots of cool stuff. Pumpkin won some contest and she got to throw a water balloon at her teacher. She was so incredibly happy about it. She was jumping up and down as she told me and later as she told her dad.

On Tuesday night, I got into this incredible rush to get things done. Ok the problem was that I thought it was Wednesday night and not Tuesday so I was trying to get the post done for the Blog Hop. And pestering my fellow admin, Harriet, for more details for it. Lots of good things coming. Now make sure you read it.. there is a big contest on it..you could win something mighty big.. did you guess what yet??? An iPad!!! Yes yes.. check out the details.. you’ll find them on Friday-Follow.com.

Now don’t run away from me yet.. I’m so confused today.  You see for months and months I’ve been doing the post for Friday Follow with my old co-hosts so its odd that this post isn’t that post.

I did have a question that was asked me at the beginning of the week since I did stop at every single one of you if you flew with us last week on Friday-Follow.  I stopped, joined and commented.  It was asked if I just copied and pasted.  Well I do have a portion that is copy and paste but I always read the post and try to make a comment on the post.  Now if you had just the buttons which I did see.. well I just pasted.  Unless I joined your blog than I mentioned that too.  Thats why it took so long..because I was reading you all.

Did you see all the exciting things going on over at Friday-Follow this week?

• Ian did an interview with Laura, The Purse Blogger.
• Harriet talked about “Finding the time to do Everything”.
• We had 4 winners this week.
• Ian did a post about who he is and why he’s at Friday-Follow.
• I showed you the original email that restarted the Friday-Follow.
• There were two helpful posts as well – word verification and the no-reply blogger.
• As of tomorrow, we will have our first 3 hosts, Michelle, Laura, and Stephanie who will have their featured posts out next week.

I’d say that’s a busy week.  So what are your opinions?

Time to go flying.. see you on the landing strips!

I decided that I just wanted a post that just rambled about things that were going on.  It will be different than I usually write so enjoy.  This is just my freestyle way to go.

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

Friday Follow was a success so far.  We had 320 people jump the hop.  That is so exciting that you all appreciate what the hop is about.  It’s about helping everyone to become a success with their personal blogs.  I remember when I first started out and having to learn all the new tips and tricks of the trade.  Yes I called it a trade.  I think anything that one puts as much time as most of us put into our blogs it is a trade.  The writing ability (which btw I still wonder if mine is called writing or simply mumbling) that it takes to put out a blog and to keep it up is sometimes overwhelming.

So anyway..I did say rambling.  I am so excited about the new and improved Friday Follow.  To have different hosts who can put out different posts to showcase their work so that they can build a bigger membership/audience is amazing to me.  I know we plan on trying to put out tips as well.  I know that I went crazy yesterday with all the word verifications thingamajigs that I saw.

Now hopefully their will be some giveaways.  No guarantees on that one.  If there are a couple of the requirements is to join the Twitter – FridayFollowcom, the website, and to become a fan on Facebook.  Only have to do it once.. promise no big emails coming from me either.

Don’t you think its sexy that we have a website strictly dedicated to Friday-Follow?  I do.  It is strictly dedicated to help all bloggers out there.

Do you have any tips that you offer to your readers?  We could post those on Saturday and/or Sunday.  Let me know, you can email any one of us at admin@friday-follow.com.

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

I went to the races last night in Liberty, Indiana to meet up with my dad.  It was totally awesome.  I plan on posting some of the pictures that I took on Wednesday.  Now, I would have thought that Monkeyboy would be totally thrilled to be there but he acted like it was no big deal.  Except for the action fighting with my brother and dad, he didn’t much care that he was there.  On the other hand, Pumpkin absolutely loved it.  She was picking cars who would win and then asked each one of us which car we picked.  You would have thought that she had won something huge when her car won.  Her car won a lot since she picked the lead car.  Now I know that the lead car is the lead car because they placed during the speed trials.  But I was keeping mums about that.

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

Florence Macaroni Kid

Now I know that I told you all that I am now the Publisher & Editor of a newsletter for kid-friendly events in my neighborhood.  Well kind of my neighborhood, I do one for all of Northern Kentucky.  Pretty spiffy if you ask me. 

Did I tell you that it’s national??  That there are over 100 moms out there publishing a newsletter for their neighborhood?  Isn’t that awesome?

Here’s the great thing, I’m now considered PRESS.. yup people are giving me tickets and/or sending me invitations to special events happening in my area.  Today I went to a Music Day where I learned there are so many arts and crafts things that you can do to teach a child about music.  Elizabeth, the owner, of Little Songbird Music is an incredible lady.  She used to go to churches and teach about music.  For instance, did you know that when a child turns 9 years old their musical ability is pretty much formed for their entire life?  That little fact makes me nervous.  Monkeyboy is very musical inclined.  Or so he was when we first got him, he doesn’t do as much anymore with it.

Elizabeth has a great blog about small children and what affects them musically here.

Are you a Macaroni Mom?  If so I don’t see why not.  Its a great opportunity.  You are doing it for free right now.  Aren’t you looking for things for your kids to do now?  Why not get paid to share that with  your neighborhood by becoming a Macaroni Mom? If you are interested, email me at tamiz@macaronikid.com.    Let’s talk!!!

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

Will my husband ever grow up?  Ok and my neighborhood men!!!

Ken installed the extended driveway on Friday morning.  We needed it because the law said we had to have it for the OLD boat of his.  We’ve been keeping it at a friends house until we could afford the driveway.  Anyway, picture this… 

Cement truck comes and pours the cement in a little corner of the driveway.  AND LEAVES.

Guys get wheelbarrows and move the concrete around.. no biggie yet right?  Can’t imagine anything can go wrong.

Time to level out the driveway… Easy peasy right?

Um no…  Our deck is on left side.. and then our neighbor’s yard which is higher than ours on the other side.

Guess what idiot husband does?

Any clue?

He takes the ladder off of his work truck and puts it…

Take a guess!!!

He puts it across from the top of our deck railing (which isn’t strong) crossing over the freshly poured cement driveway and up to the neighbor’s yard.  TWO nuts held the ladder on the ends while TWO bigger nuts crawled out there and used a leveler to level out the cement underneath them.

Can you imagine what the video would have been like if one nut fell off into the freshly poured cement below??

I can…. Can you say America’s Most Funniest Videos?

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

Did you like my rambling?  I hope so.

Welcome to the very first NEW Friday Follow hosted by Tami at Hearts Make Families, Harriet at Harriet and Friends, and Ian at The Daily Dose of Reality! We invite you to join us every Friday to get more blog followers and to find many interesting blogs that you like. This is all about sharing and having fun.

A few housekeeping issues: We are looking for hosts for later dates. We have decided that three hosts is a good number for each blog hop. As usual, the top slots will be reserved for the hosts so they will get a lot more attention to their blogs. Another great benefit is that each host will have the opportunity to showcase their work the week after they host on Friday-Follow.com.

We expect you to be on your honor and to have fun. These are only guidelines to make it more enjoyable for you. Here’s how YOU can join the Friday Follow celebration:

• Link up your blog name and URL using the McLinky below. Only need to add on one blog to be seen on all the blog hops.
• Grab the Friday Follow button and include on your Friday Follow blog post.
• Follow Friday-Follow.com so you can see the current things going on. If you haven’t check out the website yet, please do so.
• Follow the Friday Follow hostesses listed in the first 3 slots.
• Follow as many other blogs on the linky as you’d like.
• Take a moment to comment on the blogs telling them you’re from Friday Follow.

As always, we are trying to improve the Friday Follow so here are a couple of rules to make the experience even better for you:

• Only one linky per blog. We do have a giveaway tab that you can include your giveaways on.
• Please try to keep your post current so that people can see your showcased work.
• Follow someone back if they follow you – this is common courtesy.
• No xxrated blogs.
• No spammers.

This list is new each week. The links do not carry over. Please link up each week for new participants to find your blogs. The list is only open to add your blog links on Fridays. It will be visible all week to visit the blogs listed.

Three (3) Friday Follower of the Week!!

Each week we will randomly draw from three (3) blogs from the links for the next week’s Friday Follow, and each blog chosen will be placed in the highly coveted number #7, #8, and #9 position on the blog hop. The first blog chosen will also be given the option of doing an interview which will post on Friday-Follow.com on Thursday the next week. We love your participation and want to give back to you! You could be next!

Spread the word about Friday Follow by grabbing our button for your blog and come celebrate again every Friday. Feel free to also send out a tweet, blog, stumble or share the news in your own special way!
