		<description>Hi Shelly,

You were the fist person to vist my blog and leave a comment (flutters eyelids) and that was a direct consequence of TT (wipes tear from eye).

You are so right about this - and I am duly scolded (smiles sheepishly).. My list was 13 books and I have thirteen seperate reasons why I love them but I kept them ALL to myself (frowns and shakes head like naughty school boy). I promise to do better next time (perky puppy dog smile).

Brought to you with good humour (hey that&#039;s the way I spell it!) and added sarcasm (only a little bit).

Grins, bows, exits stage left.
 :grin:

&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How come y&#039;all spell humor so strangely? :lol:  I wasn&#039;t fussing at you...ewe don&#039;t have to be sheepish.~skt  &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Thanks for the link love.

The post you listed of mine really made a difference in my blog&#039;s growth. I would comment on sites I like and people would start recognizing me and stop by. But if I was just posting Dawud, or dmiracle (which I began with), there would be much less name recognition. So when commenting, select a name that sets you apart from other commenters. Brand yourself.

&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;You are so right.  I never put &quot;Shelly&quot; as a signature, because there are a bunch of them out there.  Your &quot;brand&quot; is certainly distinctive!~skt&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve decided to do TT for my regular readers only.  My reasons are plenty, but mostly from time lost surfing and commenting.  I&#039;m a stay-at-home mom with limited time during the day to surf or post.  

I agree with #3.  My comments are just as important as a post.  A writer has standards you know!  :razz: 

I&#039;m not changing from blogspot, which means signing into Google for you.  I sure hope you still visit now and again.  If you&#039;re not commenting, I know that at least you&#039;re lurking!

If you feel so inclined vote for me, Top Momma. Yes, I have to ask and you&#039;ll see the shameless plea posted on Thursday.

Miscellaneous Matters

&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I do come and lurk, but the last few weeks have been hectic and I haven&#039;t been commenting much.  I&#039;ll come by and vote Top Momma.~skt&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>I totally agree, I wish more &quot;mom bloggers&quot; or &quot;women bloggers&quot; or &quot;parent bloggers&quot; or whatever label you can use to describe the majority of bloggers I frequent would use those social bookmarking tools like stumbleupon.

&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Especially since there is a category for that, Michelle!  Do we need to stand on a soapbox?  I don&#039;t really want to put that stumble thumb on each post.~skt&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Thanks for the great info!  The entire post was really very informative for me.  I followed a few of your links and was curious about the whole Google Juice, so I&#039;ve gotten on board with all that link loving.  Then I went ahead and posted a note to my readers telling them where they can find the info too.

&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;You&#039;ve done a great job with getting the word out!  I hope others &quot;do-follow&quot; so to speak! :grin:~skt&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>I&#039;m very new to all of this and really appreciate the good advice.  Theres a nervousness and excitement at getting involved in the Thursday Thirteen but so far I&#039;ve been pleased.  Thanks again -

&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;It will get easier as it goes along.  Some days its a challenge, but it&#039;s one that I like.  Thanks for visiting~skt&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description>
