What the Heck!

The other day I received an email from my daughter who is an author at my blog@blogger telling her that MY blog was thought to be a spammer blog.  their little “robots” were doing their job?  HUH???  Excuse me but do you think that they would contact the OWNER of the blog?  OH NO!  That would be too hard to do.

I have this notice on my blog where you create your posts:

This blog has been locked by Blogger’s spam-prevention robots. You will not be able to publish your posts.

Blogger’s spam-prevention robots have detected that your blog has characteristics of a spam blog. (What’s a spam blog?) Since you’re an actual person reading this, your blog is probably not a spam blog. Automated spam detection is inherently fuzzy, and we sincerely apologize for this false positive.

We received your unlock request on August 1, 2008. On behalf of the robots, we apologize for locking your non-spam blog. Please be patient while we take a look at your blog and verify that it is not spam.

Ok so this happened at 4:30 PM in the afternoon on the 31st of July and i acted immediately and they tell me they received my notice on the 1st of Aug?  Are they kidding me???  They don’t even have the right date unless they are located in Tim-Buck-Two!

So now I am waiting not so patiently for them to figure out how to unlock my blog.  I went to their so called help blogger and see that there are many more that this has happened to.  Hey I am all for ridding spammers but is my blog a spam?  I don’t think so.  I prefer blogger because I am used to it and I don’t want to redo my blog.  But WordPress makes it so easy to import your blog.  HA HA!

So maybe if I can con my daughter into fixing this one up and making it all pretty again and putting all my links and pics back on the sides then I just might stay here.  We shall see how long it takes for blogger to have their little mechanical robots undo their stupidity.

Just having fun!

I was trying to do a transfer on this background and it messed up. I was going to throw it away. I took a piece of sand paper and smoothed it out and added some inks and voila!

The image is from Paper Imagery Designs and this is NIA!

Bird House Row

I think this is a better pic. Took this one this morning with my old camera. The first one I covered with specialty paper and painted adding rub-ons and Prima flowers.

The middle one I used a napkin to cover the entire bird house and then added my embellishments.

The last was painted and I did not like it and then added more paints and still did not like it. I tried rubbing the paint, gesso and gel medium off and it gave me this rustic worn out look. It was perfect for an old bird house. Added some glass bubbles, flowers and buttons.

I got a little play time this weekend. I made these little bird houses. Just wanting to have some fun. I need a new camera! The glitz and glitter does not show here but they are just to adorable in person if I have to say so myself.

All images used in the bird houses are from Paper Imagery Designs!

We Still have our BOGO Sale going on! Buy one, get one free! Perfect to participate in this mingle!

I think we need a swap on these! If you join our yahoo group you will be able to join in.
