Molly you didn't do anything and I am not upset I just had something come up. Ya know that I love your butterflies photos, and just a tiny bit jealous because I haven't gotten one this year. Can you believe it's thundering, lighting and raining here now!!! :{ with a big tears in my eyes.
How about a Best Butterfly picture contest?
O Wind, I am so glad to hear that I have not upset you in any way. So sorry to hear the weather is bad there, as I am scared of storms and I usually shut down when one pops up.
I thought that you had gotton pics of a butterfly this year? At Lupy's house?? I guess it isn't the same when its not in your own garden huh? I wish I could send ya a bunch of them all different colors!
(((Wind)))
So, what are the rules and how long do I have to TRY to get a decent picture?
I guess I am going to cancel the butterfly contest for this thread. But I have asked Dave to add it to the contest page and he has done it already.
So I'm guessing that we should just think of another topic to have a contest with.
Hope no one gets upset at me about this. It just didn't pan out like I had thought.
So ya'll put on your thinking caps and lets figure out a new contest that doesn't have pics.
OOOPS, I guess I should have added something.
I want to Thank each and every one of you that stepped up and decided to be a judge for my contest.
Thanks for the ones that were willing to continue on thru with it even after I decided to fold it up and quit.
Ya'll are the BEST!
Something involving words so we don't have to worry about getting pictures posted... We all get more goofy when we're tired at night, so I think it'd be fun to avoid pictures...
Obscure situations?
How did you "pay it forward"?
Did someone "pay it forward" to you & if so, how?
Words you've made up that aren't real (dam-stress)
Most unique pet name?
Just a few ideas off the top of my head to help us brainstorm...
best unique made-up story?
hmmmmmmmmm..............my brain isn't working today....LOL
Mollybee, I'm glad you got that category added to the regular photo contest since that's pretty much the only photos I take.
Too bad about this one though, and I can't even figure out what happend. I guess i'm too blond, LOL.
Have fun in the word contest! If there is something I'm bad in, that would be it. I guess I could be a judge if you need one.
I'll participate in whatever contest y'all come up with! I'm sure it'll be a lot of fun, plus, I get to throw my Kentucky accent around!
TC...
Roadrunner, thanks for the advice and the link. I checked it out and will follow up on their suggestions.

Sorry I couldn't make it back yesterday. Lightning storms kept advancing then disappearing before we finally got rain, so no computer for me until late.
Really and truly, I am not terribly fond of any bug. And "bugs" are anything small that bug me! LOL Include spiders, mites, all those things that everyone says, "But those aren't insects! They are __________" Bugs are what bug me!
(could that be an idea for the next contest?)
Morph, LOL about getting goofy at night! It must be night round the clock for me ;~X
LOL Lupine, does that mean you are not a fan of insects?
How about a contest to see who can best describe the beauty of a lowly earthworm? Not the beauty of what they do but their actual outward appearance.
LOL Zany, now we all know your way with creative words and you would probably make the thing sound like a prince one would kiss in a minute......LOL
I'm still looking for something to pack your prize in. I'll get it out by Wednesday for you though, for sure
No rush on the prize Flo....I'll just wait patiently...Tap tap, pace....is it here yet? LOL
Zany; I know what yer gettin, I know what yer gettin, na na na na na na!! ;~)
Reading this thread has cheered me up! :D
stop teasing Zany, TC........it's not nice!!!
Ya know we could have at least had a runner up or maybe even a second prize!! I wanted to win sooo bad :( Ain't never won nothing in my whole life! :(
Zany is too good with words!
Aaaaahhhhh Molly............I'll send you a surprise.......a consulation (sp?) prize, let's call it. From me to you :)
No Susan you don't have to do that. That is sweet of you though. I was just kidding, because I wanted to have another contest so I could try winning again hee hee
Just save it for the next contest...if we ever figure one out that is.
I'm going to think real hard for a few minutes and see what I can come up with..
hmmm........where's Aimee, she has good ideas
I can't think of a thing right off
I think that I shall never see
a little earthworm as purdy as Zany.
E'en tho the soil they aid
they can't match the poetry she's made.
How's that?
Trying again:
Amynthas corticis sure are cool
Reminds me of some of the good times we've had
Aporrectodea trapezoides bring me back home
but none are even close to the friends in the Garden.
Oops. Better leave the poetry to the pros.
Flo; C-o-n-s-o-l-a-t-i-o-n; noun; the act or an instance of consoling.
Now Tc is teasing Flo!
yeah, I know........he's just rotten......LOL
Hee hee :D He's the good kind of rotten though LOL
There is a 'good' rotten? ROTFL
Well not really, but in Tc's case we need to make an exception to that rule LOL
Ok if you say so ;)
So have you thought of any good contests yet?
I got one!! How about a "Pick on TC" contest? See who can come up with the best impersonation of my accent!!
TC...
not everyone can do that one......LOL
Watch for new contest!
I'm watching............not sure where and what but I'm watching.......LOL
Ahhh now Tc, that would only be fun for some of us...and like Susan said, not everyone can talk like you! LOL I'm not even gonna try cause I know I'd be red faced fer sure!
Watchin watchin where o where do I need to go??
MB; I met a really nice person from "Joga" once, talk about an accent??! Mine was tame compared to her S. Georgia dialect! While she was up visitin DW, I had to be the interpreter!
Now, Aimee, as MB and flo said....I'm watchin! ;~)
Why Lupine! You have been holding out on us with your poetic soul!
As for certain people pickin on me....LOL LOL :~P
Mollybee, glad you feel better. A giggle a day may not keep the doctor away but it sure makes the waiting room less of a boore!
Tap, Tap, Pace...just checked the mail box and the package you are going to mail next week has not arrived...
How about a contest where we each get one person to which we give a single gift. The most unique wins?
Morph; that's a neat suggestion. I love gettin surprises! Love givin em too!
Aimee; u have us watchin, but we're not seein! ;~)
Hey.."good" rotten?? Rotten stuff makes good compost. TC..you fertilizin' the garden??
ROFLOL at Ginger!! Never thought of it like that!! LOL too funny!
I'm up for the unique gift exchange....who wants to run the show?? Morph?? You up for it? Need someone to make the name exchanges in a hat.
Tc, I'm sure my Gawgia accent is much different than your's. But I must admit that when I type, I tend to use more proper words than when I speak. So if that tells ya anything....you can bout tell the way I really talk. LOL
Zany I think you have been giving Lupy lessons haven't you?! She is getting too good at this!
