Fun Monday... for Tuesday... for Wednesday
UPDATED...UPDATED (AGAIN, AGAIN) LIST ! Please note there are more participants that have been added on Tuesday Wednesday. TheWitch is momentarily out of the building but will fly by on her broom sometime today. Thanks to ALL of you gracious blogbuds who have opened up your shelves and garages to play the game. If your name has been left off, let her know because the list will ooze into tomorrow...Fun Tuesday Wednesday !
Plato said, "I can learn more about a person from an hour of play than in a year of conversation."
Someone else said, "I can learn a lot about a person by just looking at their bookshelves and garage."
So, Fun Monday's challenge for June 25 is to post pictures of your bookshelves or stacks of books. Hopefully, we will be able to read some of the titles. If you want, while you're at it, post pictures of ANY shelves...shelves with toys, dishes, collections, Aunt Gertrude's ashes in an urn, etc. Also, post pictures of your garage, carport, or places where you store 'stuff.' (No fair cleaning first, but if you must, maybe this will be the motivation to do so.)
Jenni in KS Who Breathes the Prairie Air has graciously volunteered to host Fun Monday for July 2. Head over to her place sometime to find out what's she's got cookin' for the rest of us.
Here are the willing participants listed in order of their requests. Who said I was OCD ? First, my special thanks to my friend DubYaT (who is celebrating his First Blogiversary - go see for yourself) for once again helping with his advice.
Please check to see if your link works and let me know if it doesn't. Also, if I have left you off the list, contact me. And, lastly, if you want to join the this craziness, comment or e-mail me at swampwitch06@gmail.com

Love the sky in your picture!

I half expected to see my name on that list, even though I haven't committed. You seem to like peering into my privacy, so go ahead and add me to it. I'll find something to stick on a shelf and take a picture of.

So much blue sky.
Posted by: Nessa | June 20, 2007 at 12:44 PM
I have to look for my camera cable...I might actually be back in in the Fun Monday fold this week.
PS. Missed you!
Posted by: Jenny | June 20, 2007 at 04:45 PM
NIKKI: The skies are the bluest here in the Rockies.
MIN: Had you not 'volunteered' I would have listed you anyway...hoping that not only do you have testicles hanging from your ceiling and on your Christmas wreath but maybe a few on your shelves.
NESSA: Chris LeDoux knew what he was talkin' about in his song, "Western Skies."
JENNY: Hey there, gal...missed you too. Find that cable, cuz I'm posting you as a player for Monday...

I love it when you talk dirty with me, about me, to me...you're the best trash talker I know ;).
Posted by: Robin | June 21, 2007 at 10:06 AM
WOLFBABY: Can't wait to see the clutter.

Okay, I barely made it, but I managed to have mine up ON MONDAY! YAY...

Thanks for hosting!
