I've Been Ghosted. And It Doesn't Even Hurt.

Ghosted
As a Halloween treat, I was "ghosted" by Liz at This Full House. And rather than look like the Scrooge of Halloween (the name by which I'm affectionately known around here) I wanted to play along--Liz is right, I do need a break. So I'm ghosting three--no, make that SIX--because I'm all about "the Halloween spirit." IS there such a thing?? Because if there is, I'm clearly displaying it now . . . SIX other bloggers who can in turn do the same for others they'd like to ghost.

I'm going to ghost six commentators from this past week--people who are so kind to always leave me comments and whom I've grown to love through their faithful visits. There are many more than just six out there but I'm just picking six from the past couple days. Each of them can take the award button and pass it on to their picks. Spreading that linking love three--I mean six--bloggers at a time.

Flea's World--Because she wants to be a buffalo.

No Ordinary Moments--Because I absolutely adore her name.

Adventures in the 32-Aker Wood
--Because Janet's not like Eeyore at all!

Random Musings--Because she's stuck with me forever.

Just Jean--Because maybe this will get her to update her blog :)

The Diaper Diaries--Because she's linked to me more times than I can repay.

And there are more . . . in fact, maybe this would be a good thing to do regularly. There are so many wonderful people who stop and leave nice messages for me here, I should start mentioning them by name. How about this? Next Friday I'll mention six more blogs that have been kind to me and kept me going (especially lately--boy Stephanie's answers really struck home with me!) just a little way of saying thank you. Who knows? Maybe I should do a regular "Friday Commentator" spotlight. At least as long as anyone cares to comment on anything.

Oh the public humiliation! Can you feel the glow of my cheeks?

I am much better at reading blogs then keeping mine updated!!

But thanks for the Ghosting.

Oh My Gosh that is cute. I ran a similar one with a reminder not to drink and drive. Halloween on a Friday always concerns me with parties and kids walking the streets.

Yippee!!! Gotta go check out that buffalo thing :)

I like the idea of highlighting different blogs, I find myself going from blog to blog, and a lot of those times I've started at yours! Happy Halloween!

Janet said...

Oh, thank you! This is fun. What a unique award! My brother-in-law has made a barfing pumpkin before - I should pass this one on to him. (And really, I'm a lot more like Eeyore than I let on. Shh, don't tell anyone.) :)

You were ghosted, hee hee! I got "Boo"ed earlier today. :)

Awww!! :) I will happily pass this one along. Everyone loves a little attention and love!

(and my hubby laughed at your flamingo comment too - since I made him listen as I read outloud to him - hee hee).

What a wonderful idea!

Flea said...

Thank you? :) Ideally I'd probably be a water buffalo. Because, you know, everybody's got a water buffalo.

I did that on a couple of posts and it was really fun to 'spotlight' somebody. I've thought about doing it or a regular basis but not so regular that it gets boring or I run out of blogs. (Run out of blogs? Impossible.) People are so nice 'out there' and it makes me hope that in this world of negativity and bad news which has totally made me quit watching the news, there are still good, good people all around me. Another point about why I love blogging so much.

Have a fun and spooky evening tonight. My daughter is dressed as Hermione from Harry Potter and has dressed her American Girl Doll just the same.
