The rounds

Do you have a strict routine surfing the internet too?!

Bloglines is my starting page and after scanning that quickly I then open my e-mail.
I have three different accounts for different purposes. I *heart* getting mail; unfortunately I've also been receiving lots and lots of spam recently.

Then I go to Flickr. There is always so much to do there!! First I read the new comments. Then I check my views, the new photos of my contacts and my groups.
By the way I just started two new Flickr-groups: Placemats and Tissueholders. Come and have a look and join if you like :)

Whilst checking e-mail and Flickr I'm also reading the new posts of my favourite blogs and leave comments as much as I can.

These are the three most important things I do on the internet. But ofcourse there are many other places that I like to visit, such as here (for the latest news and weather), and here (for the best laughs), and here, and here.

A website that I also really love is Craftygirls. If you're interested in Dutch crafty life then this is the place to be. Here you find crafty projects, links to crafty people/shops and ofcourse there's the forum where I like to hang out :)
There is also a monthly goodiebag for sale with promotional mini-items. The next will be up for sale tomorrow 20.30h and I've donated some goodies too this month!

All this checking on blogs and websites keeps me content and occupied for a long time. Sometimes so long that Michel gets irritated and asks me: What on earth are you doing all the time?! To which I always answer: Oh, just doing the rounds!
So I'm just going to do a quick last round and then I go downstairs to my lovely hubbie who waits for me with tea and chocolate!

Just a photo of some fun we had today. Is Amber wearing her pyjamas in the middle of the day?! Well, yes she is! I tried to have her take a nap, because she's been quite tired these last days, but ofcourse she wouldn't sleep!

Funny I am always a bit intimidated by craftygirls. I guess they make me feel not so crafty. And I am missing the promomonsters yet again! I'm having sewingclass today (and they will be all sold within an hour or so I'm afraid.. )

You package has arrived and I LOVe it! Will blog soon..

I love your colourful doors! I also take time every morning to "do the rounds". The children leave the house at 7am and then I take my cup of coffee and go to the computer. I check the local and Australian news and weather, check my comments and my favourite blogs and then flickr and I try to look at one new blog every day although most days I don´t stop at one. At 8.35am one of my favourite TV shows begins (CHIC on Arte) and that´s when the computer gets turned off or I would sit here all day.

I dont have a set routine, I usually read my emails when I first turn on the computer, after that it varies, I tend to do blog reading, from my drop down bookmarked list of hundreds(I am still compiling bloglines) and I will read whichever takes my fancy, there are some I visit more than others of course. sometimes then I will go on flickr, and visit a few new blogs and flickr places if I can.

I do this whenever I get a spare moment in the day, or at night when the kids are in bed and hubby is watching tv of playing Ukulele or guitar somewhere.

Sometimes I feel like blogging is having a full time job, and that I need a pa to help with all the comments and commenting on other peoples blog. However I'm obbsessive about the blog and blogging so it's mt fault!!
