Amy . . .

What would you like to know? I am fun, but crazy. I have a most perfect husband, and 2 cats named Samson and Delilah. We are presently working on adopting a little girl from China and have a separate blog for that. I am a Christian and am working on a better relationship with him. I live in the Atlanta area and love sharing stories with people. I am also a pediatric nurse and I love it! I love to talk and meet new people and I love Disney Cruising

Day 2 Answers:

1.Sparky Duck from Philly's Transplant has a video of football on their blog. A toddler gets tackled. Thankfully they are ok. http://blujackit5.blogspot.com/2007/04/someone-is-in-doghouse.html

2. Robin had Sanjaya on her blog - I had him in a TT once but here is Robin's post: http://buckeyesinchina.blogspot.com/2007/04/its-about-time.html
3. For encouragement for me it's handsdown Heather. She is getting her operation tomorrow on her brain tumor. Let's all stop by and give her some. Especially Heather http://www.especiallyheather.com/

Debi said...

This whole video thing is gonna do me in...I just don't read any blogs that post videos. Got totally lucky remembering that one yesterday. So anyway, I have nothing for #1.

#2. Not sure if you need an actual photo of him or not. But here is a post that talks about him.

#3. Jules could use some encouragement...her husband has been very sick, her best friend is moving away, and she's burned out.

Debi said...

Oops...messed up the link on #3.

Let's see if I can get it this time.

Jules

HomeSchool Mommy said...

I'm SO sure! You did not intrude on my contest! :) You're so sweet. I didn't have a set day to start it, so this is good. I'm getting ideas from you. I just have all these prizes sitting around...waiting to be given. :)

Laura said...

[I can't imagine how much work this is taking to check and tally all these links!]

1. Sports video
I think this one is really worthwhile to watch. It's a video produced by a group that sponsors health education and a running program (running = sport) for students in Kenya. Hope this counts. If not, I'm still happy to give it a billing. :)
http://tumainikids.blogspot.com/2007/05/hope-runs-video.html

2. Sanjaya - not only got him; got his sister too!
http://www.girlinshortshorts.blogspot.com/2007/04/sister-of-sanjaya.html

3. A blog to love - Easy - my dear cousin who's living in Israel. She's there b/c of her husband's work, is a totally talented architectural designer, and is currently busing tables because she can't get real work otherwise. She's got a wicked good blog that she keeps; it started strong but she's been flagging lately. She's an amazing photographer!

3) http://www.mikekimnc.blogspot.com/ is a blogger that needs encouragement. She hurt her back last week. You could also tell her whether you like her hair curly or straight. :-}
I know its not quite the same, but I put an announcement for your scavenger hunt both on my blog and posted a bulletin on my Myspace page. :-}

1. This was a toughie for me. I had to start looking at other peoples blogrolls to find one. Over at Philly Transplant he posted one on Wednesday, April 25th. But this one is not a fun one. It's kinda sad.
http://blujackit5.blogspot.com/2007/04/someone-is-in-doghouse.html#links

2. Linda @ 2nd Cup of Coffee on April 12th wrote some new lyrics to Gloria Gaynor's song called He Will Survive. I hope you can find it because it is very clever!

http://2nd-cup-of-coffee.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html

3. Karla @ Looking Towards Heaven asks for prayer as they are moving again. She and her family have had a rough year too with sickness on and on and on. Plus she is pregnant! Stop by and let her know you will be praying for their situation @

Today, we are going to do 3 questions and one of them will be from one of you, our participants. so lets start with that one!

1.) Find a blog that has a video of someone playing a sport. Can be a home video, professional video or such. Let me know if you link it on your blog. I had a hard time finding peoples links yesterday.

3)Give us the name of a blog that needs encouragment. Tomorrow I hope we can share some sunshine!.

Just like Heather, our friend from TNchick.com (Photo Hunters) needs some words of encouragment as she is going through some health problems.

OK, these are my answers for today.
See you all tomorrow.

DebD said...

This was tough I don't do lots of videos and I've never even seen Amer.Idol before.... Yes, I found that people's links were running off the screen so I couldn't get to them... Perhaps they can add the html so it becomes a clickable link.

1). Hey doing a little research I killed two birds with one stone:
Sanjaya Gets Booed at Dodger Stadium

2)Blog about Sanjaya: Sanjaya Must Be Stopped

3) - I don't know them but a fellow Hmschool blogger's daughter just had surgery to remove a lung (I think she's only 4 yrs old)

Team Bettendorf
I'm sure they would love the encouragement.

This isn't always easy when you're going through the 90+ blogs participating FIRST lol

1.) Philly Transplant:
http://blujackit5.blogspot.com/2007/03/laettner-15-years-ago-yesterday.html

2.) You weren't specific on whether it had to be a picture of Sanjaya, or just a post, so I went with Joe Cool who actually has 2 posts with Sanjaya mentioned:
http://joecoolsblog.blogspot.com/search?q=sanjaya

3.) 2 that I can think of right now -- TNChick from PHotoHunters (http://tnchick.com/archives/1013#comments)... and Heather (http://www.especiallyheather.com/)

I don't have much time today, so I can only answer one question!

A blogger who needs encouragement:
http://thecurvature.blogspot.com/

It's my friend Cara, and she has just started her new political blog. I think having a few new visitors stop by would make her day! But don't tell her I sent you. ;)

Like Debi commented above me, this is going to just do me in. I don't really read blogs that have videos and I have a strong dislike for most things posted on You Tube. :(

I guess I'm going to have to pass on these... except, I did post on my own blog a while back about Sanjaya. Thank goodness he's gone :)

Day 2 Findings

1. I am not sure if the video needs to be from a fellow participant or any blogs! But lucky me I found both!! YAY!!!
a) Sport (Cricket)
b)Ok its a news cast, but it shows a few football shots.

2. Idol

3. Happy Belated B-Day Ivey! God bless her and her family!

http://enterthecircus.typepad.com/enter_the_circus/2007/03/ai_live_blog_36.html

2) http://boomama.net/?p=976 -- I hope mention of him is enough... apprently it was for most ;)

3) I'm sure someone has mentioned Heather (www.especiallyheather.com) but if so she deserves to be mentioned AGAIN... She needs all the encouragement she can get, especially tomorrow!!

Michelle said...

I found this video from a participant who had a video of someone playing a sport on their blog: http://blujackit5.blogspot.com/2007/04/someone-is-in-doghouse.html

Here is a blog of someone who mentions Sanjaya: http://www.sethskim.com/2007/05/american_idol_confession.html

Amy of Laughing Through The Tears:http://laughingthroughthetears.blogspot.com/ could use some encouragement as she waits to hear about her hip replacement surgery.

Girlie said...

1.This is an AI video. I didn't link to it, but had watched it.

1. Went to first participant on the list Sparky Duck and found this great YouTube sports video.
2. Memphis Tennesse blogger J.D. devotes his entire blog, Musical Ramblings, to American Idol.
3. Randomly selected #92 on list, Shoshana. Her blog is called unseal my lips. Her blog tagline says it all. She is a "wife, mother of 5, and all things in between." Anyone with the stamina to do all that and to blog regularly certainly deserves a pat on the back.
