Show us where you live.
The view from my front door…
******************
Now it’s your turn!
Choose a prompt, post it on your blog, and come back and sign Mr. McLinky. Be sure to sign up with the actual post URL and not just your basic blog URL (click on the title of your post for that URL). For good comment karma try to comment on the three blogs above your name!!
The Prompts:
1.) Describe a job you absolutely would never want to do.
2.) Show us where you live. Not on a map (security please), but take a picture of the view out your front door, back door, or neighborhood.
3.) What makes you mad, and what are you going to do about it?
4.) In an effort to spread awareness, share your (or someone you know/love) breast cancer story
5.) If you could stop time for 24 hours, what would you accomplish?

So we both picked the same prompt this week however your neighborhood seems to be “bustling” compared to mine! I love the 3rd picture!
Perfect view! I love the black kittie and the Hello Kitty sweatshirt!
Loved your front door pics!! I decided to video instead of just photos b/c I was way overdue for a vlog!
Can I just say your pictures are amazing! I love every single one of them!
I too picked the same prompt.. You have a lovely neighbourhood and really cute dog :P
Thanks for hosting! I sort of did not read my prompt carefully, but I am here…
Something almost retro about these Superior Snaps.I love your home turf!
Hummingbirds
Are those pink trees? Beautiful!
I enjoyed this post! And I think it meets your sister’s strict personal security/no identifiers guidelines!!! I agree with another commenter that the pic with the sun rays (and the trash truck!) is compelling. Can’t wait for McLinky to come back so I can get my post up!
Happy to know I’m not the only person whose Linky thingys go missing through no fault of their own;). I have the same trash truck photos taken by me, in jammies, hiding super far back in my house because my trash dudes are HAWTness. I’m jealous that the school bus comes right up to your front door. I’m not jealous that the ice cream truck does.
All of the pink flowering trees on your block are really pretty!
Well, for some reason, I can’t load my pic/link again. Oh well.
Loved the pictures – looks like a nice relaxing neighborhood!
I love the pic from your front door! It looks serene!
I love the pics….seems like there a long going on outside your door! My daughter and I had fun going for a walking and taking photos of our neighborhood. Unfortunately Mr. Linky won’t let me link up at all this morning….I keep getting an error message. I’ve tried 20 times and about to get on a plane.
I’ll try again later, but my link is:

Well, we have once again chosen the same prompt! Love the cute pics. I seem to be having the same problem as Funky Diva Girl. Mr Linky does not like me this morning either!
Here is my link also:

Have a great day!
Wow living in Aus you don’t see streets looking like that! I looove the pink blossoms and your poochy and kitty! Adorable!
I love the third picture standing at the front door. And I LOVE the pink trees. We don’t have anything like that this time of year.
I tried to link up, but it must be messed up.
hello mamakat! are you a tribemate? being admin of our black leopard’s tribe, i am not really sure how to address you….you are like our jeff proebst in survivors. but heck, admin or no, i should be visiting, so here i am.
my first time in writers workshop. actually, it kinda looks cool. maybe i’ll try it in future. hmmm….
for now, i shall just say, your dog looks so cute looking out. i almost thought he was not real. really great shot!
Loving your trees! And the holy light that shines down upon your home! And the cute kids and animals that flock to your doorstep. Looks like a cozy home.
And I’m not seeing McLinky so here is my link:
Jobs I Don’t Want
These pictures make me want to come over and hang out at your house. What time works best for you.
The Linky must need coffee this morning. It refuses to work.
MckLinky is giving me fits, too. Keeps saying something about an HTTPModule.
Here’s my link

We chose the same prompt. Looks like you have a very kid friendly neighborhood!

Hmmmm, no Mr LInky. Here’s my post: http://www.mamakatslosinit.com/2010/10/writers-workshop-7/
Glad to know it is not just my cranky old computer. McLinky is showing me only red xxxxs.

Great prompts this week.
Can’t wait to read around!
WOW your street is beautiful, reminds me of Wisteria Lane on Desperate Housewives!
That ice cream truck one reminds me of being a kid!
Okay, so Mr Linky isn’t working for me today. I love your pictures! Here is my link http://findingauthenticity.wordpress.com/2010/10/06/we-have-to-stop-this/
My front door pics seems so 3rd world compared to yours.
Also linking here as Mr Linky not happy with me neither

Love me some Writers Workshop. Such pretty pictures!
Mr Linky hates me, but here’s my link:

My favorite pic is of the dog–but the pink (dogwood? cherry blossom?) trees are gorgeous–I want to live on your street!
love the photos..what type of post processing do you do? Looks very cool. Joining up for the first time on the writers workshop
Nice pics!
You look like you live in a really nice neighborhood. I’m jealous. :)
When you get a chance, pop over to my blog and enter my CSN giveaway!
What a nice, peaceful looking neighborhood! And I love the picture with the rays of the sun out your front door.
http://karenschronicles.squarespace.com/karen-chronicles-blog/2010/10/7/i-must-respectfully-decline-your-offer.html
I almost did this prompt!! i love the scenes from peaceful neighborhoods that really look like they can be anywhere in the country. School busses and ice cream trucks {even with their annoying music} stopping in front of the houses all year round. Love it!
I think my link up worked through mr. linky I didn’t try the thumbnail one…
you’re neighborhood has a lot of houses!!! Mine has like three. :)
I LOVE the cherry trees along your street! I want to put at least one in my yard… someday.
beautiful :)
Your dog might be the cutest dog ever. Your front door view is pretty awesome.
apparently, I’m not smart and linked up to the wrong post.
le sigh.
tried again…
Your photos are just gorgeous. I especially love the third one–you captured the sunlight so beautifully.
Thank you for this prompt this week.
I now have something that I wouldn’t have had otherwise…a letter to myself documenting this beautiful life that I’ve been given.
I love your photos! They give me a warm fuzzy feeling. ;)
Peace,
Michelle ;)
what a pretty street
What great pictures! It definitely feels like home! I love that you included one of the garbage truck and the ice cream truck!
Awww, I love that picture waiting for the bus! Just tell me the ice cream truck isn’t still visiting by you? Ours have been put away for … several long weeks already around here. *sigh*
Great pics! I have the same rugs in my laundry room. LOVE those rugs :)
Such a beautiful street with all those trees in bloom!
Love the one of the ice cream truck! I don’t think your kids could be more adorable :)
Love Love puppy! Don’t think I’ve seen that beautiful color before!!! and what an adorable picture of your lil student all ready for school!
Oh, this was fun! I got to take some photos and play with a new photo frame program! Loved the prompts this week!
what a beautiful view!!! looks like a really good morning, judging from that smile and sunshine.
Is that another foster dog I see? I love the color. What is he? :)
And, an ice cream truck stops on your street? LUCKY kids!
Great pictures…especially like the tree lined street in bloom!
I love your photos! They are so beautiful and really show your home. Thanks for sharing your ‘home’ with all of us!
Nice photos..you capture your kids so well!! Thanks for the fun!!! I look forward to this each week. a
I love this, I think I came in a little late, since it is Friday, but I had fun!
Your pictures are so sweet. What a great memory of your kids going off to school and I love the doggy shot! ~Lisa
I am all a twitter about life
Wow, the pink trees lining your street are gorgeous! What are those? (I know nothing about plants.)
I love how you did the view from your front door! Beautiful. All those cherry blossom trees are gorgeous!!

It’s quite late, but I just linked up a post about how my breast cancer affects my marriage.
