The Ultimate Blog Party is EVIL!!!! UBP Update

Oh yes!  I said EVIL!!!!

Sure, it seems innocent enough.  You join up, put a banner on your site, enter your blog post, then start browsing through the other THOUSANDS of participants.  Nothing EVIL about that, right???

That's what I thought, until.....


Instead of putting away laundry, or straightening the living room...  I'm UBP blog hopping...
ubp01

Instead of running the sweeper...
ubp02

Instead of doing the dishes...
ubp03

Instead of scrubbing the tub...
ubp04

Or washing the dog... Yikes, or straightening that mess behind the door (don't look!)... I'm reading blogs...
ubp05

Even Sammy, who stayed home sick, is more productive than I am today.... she's making Easter cards!
ubp06

I really should be dusting instead of perusing blog after blog...
ubp07

Or, perhaps, working on my crafts?
ubp08

Or, better yet, ordering plants and seeds for the garden...  but NOOOOOOO.....
ubp09

I'm up to number 876, which is right above my own entry btw, and not getting a single thing done at home!  There are several days left, and several HUNDRED blogs to go through!!!

So, don't be tricked into believing that the Ultimate Blog Party 2009 is a good thing.  

I'm tellin' ya!!  It's EVIL!!!!!  ;-)

The secret is to pace yourself! Allow a certain amount of ime and than get up and go do a 15 minute boogie! go to flylady and find out more.

Stephanie said...

Ha, ha, ha! I am not getting anything done either and I just started the UBP.

Shannon said...

Hey there!!!
Its good to know I'm not the only mom that spends way too much time blog hopping!

Staci said...

You're so honest about it though. I'd never post photos of how awful it can get when I'm doing more important things than cleaning! But every one needs a break now and then right?

The American Homemaker said...

The Stylish House said...

My house has a sink full of dishes and a laundry basket overflowing. UBP EVIL! It sure was fun though. Cathy!
