-Thursday Thirteen #7


Welcome to Thursday Thirteen....that we all seem to do on Wednesdays!  You can play along too!

1. I love looking at the ways that people find my blog.  Most of them are pretty normal searches, but some of them are a little strange.  Here are some from this week...
2. "Tracie"....this one is pretty self-explanatory. 
3. "Microsoft Owns Google"......oh no, those guys from the IHOP found me!!
4. "Music Notes for 'A New Wold Somewhere' ".......um, I don't have those.  Sorry!  But it is a great song.
5. "Boiling Peanuts Without the Shells"........You are supposed to boil them with the shells.  Just don't eat the peanut shells like Don did
6. "Tracie Cannada"....no, I didn't spell Canada wrong, the searcher did.  This is why spell check was invented.
7. "Companies Going Bankrupt" ......I have no wisdom on this.
8. "Raw peanuts in Arizona"......people really loved the peanut searches this week!
9. "Say Bomb on a Plane".....this is a story that I will be re-addressing later this week when I leave for Arizona. 
10. "Gingerbread Pancakes Eggnog Pancakes".....so yummy!
11. "Bob Ross Rabbits" .......I love Bob Ross and all of his happy little trees!!  But he never did paint those rabbits.
12. "Steward's of Children".....Everyone should get this training!
13. That is some of the searches from this week (minus a bunch of repeats....I had no idea that so many people search the name Tracie or try to find the meaning)

I will be in going to Arizona on Saturday for the next couple of weeks, so blogging and commenting will be sparse, but my husband (the crazy list maker!....he loves to make lists) has offered to fill in for me and do my TT next week. We will see.

Please don't forget that SuppahMommy's auction for Jaden is starting soon.  Go bid on something!

  1. Hi Tracie :)

    Thank you so much for your comments recently on my side of the world...with my job I have such a limited amount of time to spend just reading and such, but I am glad that over the last couple of years you have consistently come back to view my work and I thank you for that!

    I love the searches...its amazing how people find you sometimes isnt it!

    NEXT STOP - do a full-sit-down-read about Jaden and see how I can help out.

    Take care

  6. LOL! Love the list!
    Have fun in AZ... don't worry about the flight. Hubby has been a pilot for almost 20 yrs.. no biggie. Flew alone w/ my boys... no biggie. Even potty trained in airports... no biggie. The best part? Airport book shops!

  9. Most people find me through food. I think French Toast Casserole and Homemade Instant Oatmeal are the top two. Yours sound much more interesting.

    My 13 is notations of a special holiday song...how long will it take you to figure out what song it is? You'll need to scroll down a bit below my Thursday Thunks to find my 13 --they are posted if you'd like to stop by for a visit today....HERE

    Have a great Thursday.

  12. I posted my favorite recent one on Facebook the other day: Granny Rain Bonnet Porn.

    Mystifying.

    I am wondering what's up with those peanut-obsessed people, though. And if I can spin it into some sort of fiction...

  13. Those searches are always a source of entertainment. The ones that get me are of my full name from somewhere where I don't think I know anyone.

    Do you write about peanuts much?

  14. What fun! I'll have to check that out myself. Have fun on your trip. Happy T13!

  15. You realize now that you've listed them you'll get even more search engine pops for confusing things.

  17. Do you have Google analytics too?
    I just put it on my blog so we'll see what happens in a month. Saw you commented on my little ole blog. Wanted to repay the favor. If you LOVE Supah you must be cool. So I'm followig you now.:)
    How do you do that cool rolling sidebar? It is awesome. I noticed it on Supah's page.

  20. lol, my #1 search is the New England Blizzard of 1978 as I wrote a reminiscence of it a couple of years ago.

    ReplyDelete
  21. That's fun. I haven't a clue how to check my traffic. I did a Bob Ross happy trees painting years ago. Everyone loves it, especially my daughter. I think it's crap, though.

  26. So funny! When I look at what people type in for search terms to find me I'm sometimes shocked and awed, lol.
