Blue Monday





Today's Blue Monday is a small tribute to Sally at http://smilingsally.com.



As a rule, I try to visit as many other bloggers as I can on any given day. After Sally's post last Monday, I decided I would be brave and try something I had never done before. I visited every Blue Monday participate and left a comment, which was a total of 78. I may have missed two or three as I could not reach their blog. I can assure you it is work and takes a lot of time. I was wore out. I truly have a lot more respect and appreciation for Sally. She does this on all the Blue Mondays. She works hard to make things work for all her participates. Sally, thank you for all you do on our behalf. My hat's off to you.

During young school days, if we did our work well, sometimes we were given a gold star. Since this is Blue Monday, Sally, I am awarding you this blue star for the excellent job you do for us.

Beautiful post! Love the blue bird.
Thank you for visiting my corner of BlogLand and your sweet words.

I am trying to address alot of the emails I've received from people who are going through similiar sitautions wanting to know the journey and how I have gotten to where I am 3 1/2 years later and how I manage to stay positive and moving forward. Mondays are usually when I post on this.
I understand it msy be difficult for some to read.

On Fridays I do a post from our little Yorkie's point of view - which focuses on our gardens - his adventures for the week. Very light reading and fun.

Happy Blue Monday. Blessings HHL

You are such a doll! What wonderful words of wisdom and praise, words that no one hears enough. Have a blessed week. Sandi

Angela said...

I remember getting the gold stars in school too!

I can't imagine visiting 78 blogs in a day or even 2 days!

Hugs,
Angela

What a special post! I agree that it would take a very long time to visit and comment each blog. I try to jump and skip around the participants getting to some new ones each time. You meet some very special people this way.

Nice shot of the iris! Getting a star as a reward.... I had forgotten that! Thanks for the memory and a smile!

Betsy Banks Adams said...

Yes----those of us who get alot of comments have to work hard at it to keep up, LV.... I am getting about 50-60 comments each post ---so I have to answer them almost EVERY SINGLE DAY.... I love it though....

Happy Blue Monday to YOU.
Hugs,
Betsy

SmilingSally said...

LOL Oh LaVoice, what a treat you've given me! I'm chuckling as I write this.

You are the special one, and I appreciate your kindness so very much.

Happy Blue Monday!

Hi LaVoice,

I hear you. I always try to visit everyone but sometimes my back starts to kill or my husband starts to rumble to get off of the computer. That was cute. I loved that blue star. I think Sally deserves it. Thanks for sharing.

Great idea. I agree that Sally deserves a blue star for all her work. Kudos to you too for visiting every Blue Monday participant's blog ;-)

Stephanie @ La Dolce Vita said...

You always have a kind word for everyone - I love that about you! Have a wonderful week!

Cindy said...

I remember the stars! I'd forgotten about those.
How Sally does it is beyond me, too.
Have a great day.

Jan n Jer said...

Great blue photo. Kind words are so appreciated at the many blogs out there in blogland. It can take up a good part of your day when trying to answer all the ones who participate on some of the popular meme's. Good for you LV for getting to so many and leaving your nice words n praise.

The Quintessential Magpie said...

She is amazing, isn't she? And I think you need a blue star, too, for your efforts last week, LV.

XO,

Sheila :-)

Ann said...

Such a fantastic and clever post for Blue Monday. Sometimes it's hard to find enough Blue to post about--but we keep keepin on!

Theresa Plas said...

Lovely blue iris! What an accomplishment to visit 78 blogs! WheW! Happy Blue Monday to you!

Heart2Heart said...

LV,

As always a very beautiful blue post but not the sad kind but the most happiest one of all.

love those blue stars LV!!!!

George said...

I'm constantly amazed at how much time it takes to visit and comment on all the blogs I want to visit.
Awarding the Blue Star was very thoughtful of you.

Anni said...

Oh yes, how true - if you give a minute to each blog it will take 60 minutes to visit 60 blogs - BUT then you do want to write something as well...

I love blue flowers and I like yours a lot!

JEANNE said...

Hello Meme, I know how much time it takes to visit everyone too. I almost never get to everyone though. Kudos to you and what a sweet tribute to Sally's hard work. Love the blue hat and the blue star. A very cute post.

Thank you for your very loyal visits while I was on blog break with my grands. You are the best meme.

Hugs, Jeanne

Candy said...

You too, deserve a gold/blue start for visiting everyone. I am so far behind I am grouping Pink Saturday and Blue Monday together, when possible. So I did take time to smell the pretty pink petals and will pop over and visit Terri.
Blessings Abound ;-)
