100 Blog Comments Challenge - The Half Way Mark
I know that we’re more than half way through the week and I will admit that I’m finding this challenge somewhat “challenging”. Of course, I’m making it more difficult on myself by deciding to link to the posts I’ve commented on. As a blogger, you can never have too many links (hint! hint! ROFLOL) and since I wanted to track how many comments I’d left this week, I decided I may as well do it this way. Of course, now all of these posts have 2 comments from me - 1 on the blog and 1 here (and no, they’re not the same - mostly).
1. Robo Boot Goes to a Graduation Ball
Kell has a wonderful gift of writing. A very entertaining tale!
I am SO jealous of Libby getting to go on a cruise. It looks FABULOUS!!!
3. Juggling Act
Yeah, we can’t all do everything. Bit of a pity that!
4. 1am 1st January 2000 (what were you doing?)
5. 27ish Weeks
And sporting a wonderful baby bump. I wish I had been blogging during my pregnancies!
6. My Surprise
A gorgeous new addition to the family.
Includes some great resources for homeschooling or giving your kids some extra help with their maths.
8. Open Letter to the Lady in the Blue Top
ROFLOL. What would you do if your breastmilk hit another patron in a shopping centre?
9. Christmas Cards and Christmas Dinner
When do you start your Christmas decorating?
10. Burning Question - What’s For Dinner?
Need some ideas for food when it’s hot? Kate’s readers have some great suggestions.
11. Prep Whispering
Kids are so much fun when they start school.
CB says goodbye to her son as he heads on an amazing overseas adventure!
13. Saturday Memes (a smiley saturday participant)
I had no idea there were so many Saturday memes floating around. Thanks for participating in Smiley Saturday for the first time Irishcoda.
14. Fast Enough?
Oh, my goodness. Imagine how fast you could get from Sydney to Perth if we had a train that went this fast. I could do the maths but I can’t be bothered. LOL. Let me know if someone does.
New recipes are always a winner with me - particularly ones that don’t require multiple steps. I love the “chuck it all in a bowl and mix” type recipes.
Kate answers these questions - a great way to get to know a blogger a little more.
Too early for Christmas music? I say definitely not!!!
18. Started Making Christmas Presents
These look AWESOME. I’m not making gifts this year - but now I wish I was!
Some great shots of her son’s formal along with some really interesting vehicles people chose to come to the formal in.
McMommy’s posts always make me smile and this one is no exception! I love reading about other peoples plans and family traditions at this time of year too! :) I totally want one of these too but you have to call to order one outside of the USA/Canada and the phone call alone would probably cost me a fortune. Not to mention the postage/shipping.
21. Another Finish
Frogdancers latest craft project - I don’t know how she fits it all in!!!!
22. To Write Love on One’s Arms
A touching way to reach out to those suffering from depression and self harm.
The phone call that everyone dreads - the school with news your child has hurt themselves.

What makes YOU uncomfortable?

29. High Tea
My favourite!!! I need to put one of these on with Princess Singstar methinks.
An update from the travellers at Ozdyssey. Makes me itchy to get back on the road again!!!
31. Awakening of Less Cheerful Feelings on Arrival Home

33. Jason Donovan
Yes, I was in the era of teens “in love” with Jason Donovan…
34. Beanie Bag Games
Who knew there were so many different ways to play with small bean bags?
A bittersweet moment for any parent.
36. Movember Magnum PI Mo Challenge
All for a good cause of course and nothing to do with wanting to be as sexy as Magnum!!!
37. There’s a Whole Lotta Chopping Going on
Happy Thanksgiving to all those in the US.

SO adorable!!!
39. Elbows
We have all been melting in the heat wave!!!

So cute.
These are SO cute!!! :) Oh, I said that for the last post didn’t I?

I am SO off track with my hearts desire for a simpler life. I really think I need to get back to reading more simple living blogs in the hopes they inspire me back into it.
43. Next Year!
Change is never easy but most times VERY worthwhile.
44. Saturday

I so love reading all the blog posts about Christmas - especially those who share how Christmas inspires them to reach out to others.
48. I Can’t Believe It’s Nearly Christmas
Kids really make Christmas lots of fun!!!
49. A Break in the Machinery - Part 2
Depression effects so many people - either through their own experience or a loved one.
50. Finally Back From a Long Blog Holiday
Life can and does get in the way of blogging from time to time.
I’ve actually visited more than these. Some blogs I couldn’t comment on or I felt I had nothing to say.
Don’t despair if your blog isn’t here. I still have 50 to go. Make sure you leave me a comment if you’d like me to visit.

Wow - that is some challenge! I’m just struggling with NaBloPoMo.
Thanks for visiting
I thought about trying to do this challenge, but between work, the holidays, and having to put in face time with RL people, I find it hard to even keep up with reading blogs, never mind commenting or writing on my own blog. Maybe this can be a semi-annual thing? You can start a trend!
What a great challenge… it was lovely to see your comment pop up on my blog.

You do realise that now I’m going to have to click everyone of those links to see what these people are all about….
you are amazing …linking that takes a lot of time. Thanks for commenting on my blog.
MissyBoo - I’m not even trying to do NaBloPoMo this year.
Decided to do something different instead.
Kirsten - I think there is a blog commenting challenge thingy already running. Possibly by the NaBloPoMo people but I’m not sure.
I understand how difficult it gets. We’re all busy people.
CB - yeah, well it was well overdue. Hope you’re coping okay being 1 child down!
River - ROFLOL. As long as you don’t abandon ME!!!!
Trish - Yeah, writing this post took me longer than the actual commenting. All in the name of fun though. I like to be a blogger that gives and don’t feel that I’ve been doing well with that of late.
What a fabulous idea.
I have to echo what the others are saying. It was wonderful to see your comment pop up.
Like a long lost friend and of course both of the little mermaids are cute - the felt one and the one who wishes she had a tail.
Wow woman. I may just have to click on those links you know…
Congratulations, what an effort!! I would have love to have done this commenting challenge this month, but Nov is always crazy for me and this one in particular has been madder than ever. It has indeed inspired me to do something later though, when things have slowed down!
