Friendly Friday


Hello Friends of the Friendless!
I think it is time for a special march to one another's sites! We have a lot of new members too.
So pick, I don't know...uh, say three, from the band roster on the left that you don't know very well and go check their blog out! Feel free to visit more if you want. Of course, leave comments!



What did you like about the blogs you visited:










Always remember that the Friends of the Friendless Marching Band is inspired by the beautiful and zany Lucille Ball and episode #60!



This wonderful recyclable Lucy replica was made by Jon Cox. She is made out of a plastic milk container, water bottles, cardboard, yogurt containers and paper. Visit his blog to see more of his unique folk art.

Quiz alert:
Which I Love Lucy character are you most like?



Guess what else I found for the FFMB to be a part of? We are now officially in the fanlist for the Friends of the Friendless! (See the the pink banner next to the FFMB's in the sideblog)
Everyone cheer!

For those wondering how the band works:
To join the Friends of the Friendless Marching Band, leave a comment stating that you wish to join then choose any instrument you like. (ability isn't an issue for this cyber band) We have three piano players, a harpist, a theramin and french horn player plus a variety of more so you get the idea that any instrument is possible.
On Fridays, the band meets to visit the chosen friendless sites which I list. Then the band leaves friendly comments for our honored recipients. Let them know that you are from the FFMB.
Get to know other band members. There is sure to be someone you can connect with.
Nominate friendless sites. They can be bloggers you know or ones that you come across in your blog surfs. Think unique. These sites have less than 5 comments/post and be posting currently. Leave me a comment with their address or email me at Carol_ffmb at yahoo.ca. I will let you know whether they have met the friendless criteria.

Please help yourself to a FFMB banner for your blog!

Went visiting and had a wonderful time. Wanted you to know that that Confessions of a Busy Mom is no longer posting...and it's signed by JOHN. How wierd is that.

Have a blessed weekend!

I'm "Ethel Mertz," apparently ;-)

I marched through a few of the members of the blogroll, and might do some more later. I have to run to the vet...

Thanks again for starting the FFMB!

TNChick,
Sounds good.

Beckie,
Thanks for letting me know. She did sound too busy and probably wanted to be alone. John?

Hi Jen,
I'm having fun, too.

Nobody Girl,
You are right. There is a lot of talent in the band.

Hi Carol, Two days late but here anyway, I am proud to say I am Lucy Ricardo! Thanks for the suggestion of a FFMB blog crawl. I've visited 3 and will visit 3 more. How are you doing by the way? You haven't posted a lot this week.
