BLOGS, something i never really got into until i stumbled onto a few that i really enjoy reading. Do you have a favorite blog that you like to read? How did you find them? Would you create a blog of your own?

I have found 2 blogs that i am becoming somewhat addicted to reading every day. I came across both of them by chance. The first one Confessions of a Pioneer Woman i had found after reading comments on the blogspot of the Ebay mom with 6 kids. Someone suggested this website and i've been hooked since. The creator of the blog has beautiful photos of her ranch out west!! From that website i also found The Dairy Wife , a 40 something mom of 4 grown children and soon to be 3yr old triplets. I love reading her story of finding love again after a bad marriage.

As for me, i love reading them. I just don't think i could bring myself to creating one of my own. I wouldn't have enough to write about and i definitely do not have the photography gene in me to take great photos.

No...I have absolutely no interest.

Nope, I never read them. I tried writing one on here, but did not really care for it. I have never been one to keep a journal.

I have too much drama in my own life to read about someone elses...

No seriously, I was reading some for a while, but I really found that I couldn't keep up with them.

I did start a blog of my own, but it is more a journal, because it is private, and no one else can read it. I did have it public for a while, but changed it.

Tanya, I would LOVE to read a blog by you. You have an amazing sense of humor, I can imagine that it'd be HILARIOUS!! Just a thought.......

I have about 30 blogs that I follow, about 15 I read daily. I love reading Mommy blogs. There's one I found called "Dad Gone Mad" and he's hilarious. There are 3 medical related blogs that I read, all from labor and delivery nurses. They're good....a bit scary sometimes when I was preggo, but good reads. My 4 SIL's each have a blog I read as well as a couple of cousins. We use our blogs in place of writing paper letters and sending pictures because we can do it more often and cheaper online. There's 2 blogs I read that the mom's just had QUADS a month ago...about a week before I had Tucker. And there's one I read about a mom with triplet boys and twin girls that are like 13 months apart. She's so completely organized it isn't even funny! Then there are the blogs of Mommysavers users past and present. Yea, I'm addicted to blogs. I write my own (link on the picture of my boys in my siggy) and also keep a blog of my photography.

On a side note, I am a compulsive reader, so I am CONSTANTLY reading something. I can't even begin to tell you the number of times I've read the shampoo bottle, the dish soap bottle, etc just because I need something to read.

Not much of a blog reader but both of those I am curious about. I will check them out.
