49 Followers, what super people they are........

So I thought I'd feature each and everyone of them as a thank you for following me in my blogging endeavours. I will admit I have my favourites, but I will post them in the order of which they registered.

1. Linda - she has two blogs, but I follow the one that I have highlighted. I love how she lives in Australia, she's such a kind person.

2. Cannedam - I've know "R" through Frugal Shopper for a while now. I love her sense of humour, and as she is an American living in Canada, I enjoy her take on things. One thing though - SHE DOESN'T BLOG ENOUGH!!!!!

3. Stephanie - she's the movie queen and a fellow quilter!!!

4. Headly - a busy mom, fellow Canadian, who also works as well.....

5. Tracey aka The Mad Quilter - as a mother of six I don't know how she has the time to breathe never mind quilt and sew. She from Australia, and we met via the Crafty Mama's website.

6. Jonnie's Universe - I'm sorry I have no idea about this person, as they don't have a blog I can see?

7. Kim - another fellow Canadian that I know through Frugal Shopper, and a busy mother

8. Expateek - An American living in Poland........she takes the strangest photos to go along with the story she is telling and they are generally funny stories!!!

9. Ms Rinkly Rimes - she's one busy lady with not one, but four blogs, how does she do it? Check out her blogs.

10. Prairie Girl 66 - I have to apologise, I know nothing about you, I am so sorry......... :0(

11. Anastasia - other than I know you are Canadian, I apologise I don't know anything about you, sorry........

12. Bobby - A young man from Oman, who I have got to know through Angry in Oman's blog.

13. The Good Life in Virginia - Erin's photography skills are great and she is a wealth of information about her area, well worth a visit.

14. The Simple Things - Caroline's blog is great a bit of everything, she makes me think, and she is in Australia.

15. Clippy Mat - Pat is a fellow Brit, who lives about an hour away, depending on the traffic, with that "special" British sense of humour, no need to say anything else, right!!!

16. The Tea Kettle Corner - Karyn, I know her through another site I used to go on. Her blog has a bit of everything on it, well worth popping into have a look at.

17. Gaynor - A fellow Cross-Stitcher and a great blogger, I love her blog, she has lots to say and she says it well.

18. Winifred - A Brit, who I am guessing has a beautiful Geordie accent? I just adore the Geordie accent, always have done. Plus she is a great knitter and crocheter.

19. Cherie - A fellow Canadian, who is super organized, but for some reason she hasn't blogged in a while, not sure why?

20. Merle - If you want to have a chuckle, pop by this lovely lady's blog. I have no idea where she gets all these jokes and funny stories from, but it certainly brightens up my day by visiting her blog.

27. Outback - Interested in the Australian Outback, then pop over to Tania's blog, it's really interesting.

29. A pot, a thought and a smidgen of dirt - a lovely New Zealander who lives in Britain with a blog that contains a bit of everything in it.

30. Jessica's World - A delightful Southern Girl, with the cutest little girl ever, pop on by her blog, as you'll just love her.

31. An English Girl Rambles - Denise a fellow Brit living in North Virginia. She has a super talent for photography, you should see her photographs on her blog, they put mine to shame. A super lady and so kind. Also I think we both started blogging around the same time?

40. Titania - An Australian lady, who has a stunning garden and takes beautiful photos, oh I wished I lived where she does!!!

I still wish I was more like you on the money side. You inspire me! Hx

Margaret's Ramblings said...

You now have 51 followers. I thought I was already a follower as I always read your posts but I then realised it's because you are listed on my blog. Loved the post. It is nice to read about others, where they are and what they do. Margaret

Gerald (SK14) said...

well i popped into quite a few though only commented on a couple.

what strange and interwoven yet disparate lives we all lead.

CannedAm said...

What a great thing for you to do! I would have a hard time keeping everyone straight in my head! I will be blogging more once I get moved. I suppose I could spend a little less time reading and a little more writing. Everytime I take a break from housework, packing, cooking . . . here I am!

Thank you for the nod!

Rudee said...

Well, thanks for the kind words. I'll certainly pop in to see the people on your list.

Patty said...

Good afternoon, and thank you for listing mine. I appreciate it very much. This past week has been really hectic, trying to get one prescription for my husband and getting the run around since Dec. 2nd. finally I apparently got hold of the right person/department or phone number because I was able to pick it up yesterday and they even reimbursed me for the one box I had paid cash for. I will refer back to this list. I already go to some of them. In fact it seems it's harder and harder to get around to all I would love to visit each day. Have a terrific week-end. We;re suppose to have a snow storm, at the moment the sun is shining. Once again the weatherman is probably wrong. LOL Have to run to bus stop to meet 8 year old granddaughter.

Winifred said...

Thank you for this list of interesting sites for me to visit. What a nice idea and many thanks for the mention.

Yes I do have a North East accent but I'm not a proper Geordie, wasn't born near the Tyne! It's a bit more of a County Durham one but maybe we all sound alike.

Ms Opinionated said...
