Alphabe-Thursday's Rainbow Summer School

Good morning class! Welcome to week one of our Rainbow Summer School. This week will be focused on:
Your link this week can consist of anything that relates to the color red in any way, shape or form!

But before you head off to link I want to announce the Grand Prize Winner from Alphabe-Thursday! I'm sorry this took so long to calculate.

Links from the letters C - Alphabet Soup TOTALLED 1,835.

True Random Number Generator

Min: 1
Max: 1835
Result: 429


#429 is Comment 43 under the letter "J" which is this post! Mumsy! Congratulations! Please e-mail me at: jennymatlock at cox dot net to claim your prize!

And I will totally admit that calculating this took me a long, long time. What a complicated giveaway. I'm a dork for sure!

Moving on before my head explodes from any residual math stress...

Remember to try and visit as many blogs as you can this week. Just because it's "Summer School" doesn't get you out of this fun homework!

We'll just stick with our normal method of trying to distribute comments more evenly.

So that we can distribute comments a bit more evenly, if your first name starts with the letters A - L please start reading the odd posts first starting with link number 1.

If your first name starts with the letters M - Z please start reading the even posts first starting with link number 2.

I also want to let you know that each week I visit every blog. I noticed a blog today where my comment didn't show up. If it appears I haven't visited your blog by Sunday night, please let me know, because it is important to me to make sure you know I've visited you!

If you have any difficulties with your link please make sure to include the number of the link when you e-mail me. It is really difficult for me to find them otherwise.

If you have any questions about Alphabe-Thursday or problems doing your link just post it in a comment or send me an e-mail. I'll do my best to help you.

The McLinkey will be live from 6:00 pm MST time Wednesday night through 8:00 am MST time Friday morning!

And remember.... link back to this post, you need to be registered as a follower of my blog, PG posts only, and try to visit all the other students according to the letter of your first name! The links will stay live after the final post deadline has passed so you can even wait and visit over the weekend or whenever you have more time.

Class is dismissed. Please feel free to post your Rainbow Summer School link now for the color RED:

  9. A COLOR is worth a thousand words or none at all because it speaks for itself. I've been in love with COLOR all my life, maybe even more than with WORDS! The rainbow class is a perfectly WONDERFUL idea, Mrs. Matlock! Thank you for the COLOR assignments...and thank you for beginning with RED! I so love RED!
    Happy RAINBOW SUMMER CLASS everyone!

    XOXO LOLA:)

  15. I couldn't figure out a way to follow you with my blog/id. I did have Millie, my Saanen nanny, sign up as a follower, but it is me, not she who is writing for the Alphabe-Thursday.

  18. Hi it's Nora, Lola's P.A. here!

    Lola was of course joking when she asked what next week's colour is! She knows as well as the next canine that it's... orange!

    Have a great weekend,

    Nora

Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! My handy dandy e-mail assistant always notifies me when you do and I read every single one.

I try to respond to comments with a return e-mail BUT I just noticed that I've been answering a lot of them to blogs that haven't linked their e-mail address to their Google account! I haven't been ignoring your comments, but now I know you aren't getting my reply e-mails! I'm sorry!

I know a lot of other bloggers who respond to comments via e-mail so if you haven't left off your e-mail on purpose, you might want to add it on! If you don't know how you can let me know in your comment and I'll see if I can help you!

Thanks so much for reading my 'Tangents'! Your comments always feel like a hug!

Jenny Matlock
