Slapdash Sunday is a day for your proverbial week ‘leftovers.’ Is there something you wanted to say, but just forgot? Is there something you want to write about, but isn’t worth a whole page? Do you have a random thought, funny or otherwise that needs to be written down?
That is what Slapdash Sunday is for!
     This weeks topic:  Time
I now realize how much time it takes to read review books in a timely manner, writing reviews,  participating in memes, visiting others’ blogs and keeping my blog current and updated.  A positive in my slow post operative recuperation is that I have time to do all of the above.  But I know this won’t last.  So I was wondering how do you allocate your time between the above and then activities of daily life, be it job, household needs and just “real life” in general.

Do you have a schedule?  Do you give yourself time limits?  How much time do you spend on household, reading and blog upkeep?  How do you juggle it all?

Congratulations winners of Impostor’s Daughter!!!  Just waiting for one of the winners to respond and then will send off an email to Anna at Hachettte so that you can look for your book in the mail.

Going to be another hot day in New England.  Our plans today are the same as yesterday…to relax and read while floating in the pool.  Hubby and I were out by and in the pool all afternoon yesterday and we had such a nice day…didn’t get as much reading done as I had planned to, because we were both in a talkative mood. 

What are your plans today?  Anything exciting?

I enjoy blog hopping, not only for reading others’ reviews, but to also see the newest and different gadgets on one’s blog.  I wonder how bloggers find these sites to add different gadget thingys.  Examples:  polls, quizzes, different images and footer tool bar to name a few.  If I see something on somebody’s blog, I usually email them and ask about the site in which they got their gadget.  Just this past week I sent off an email to Larissa at Welcome To Larissa’s Bookish Life to ask her about the tool bar and another item on her blog.  She was kind enough to help me.  
The sites that I mostly use are Photo Bucket, Image Chef and HTML Basix.
How do you find gadgets to add to your blog?  What sites do you get your images from?  Are there any sites you would like to share.

Today’s Topic:  Word Verification
  Do you have it on your blog?  Why?  What do you think when others have it?  Do you think it is necessary?  Have you had experiences that you need it?
I don’t have it for this blog.  And have had only 1 comment that I had to delete…it was an advertisement for some jewelry.  I do a lot of hopping, and I know that while visiting other blogs, I will be coming across some verifications.  What I think is funny is that it seems every time I leave a comment, a get a 7 letter verification.  LOL  Is it only me that blosgspot and wordpress makes me work harder?  I have only been blogging for approximately 8 months and not sure what the positives and negative reasons are to have word verifications.
