I could be a brilliant blogger

If you had any idea of some of the posts I write in my head . . . you would be in awe. Some of the best stuff I have come up with doesn't make it to my blog. I have some severe difficulties to overcome such as my laptop doesn't work in the shower; my hubby doesn't like the glare of the screen in bed (not to mention its hard to type lying down); and I don't think it's safe to write while driving. If I could overcome these challenges . . . .

I really think I come up with my best stuff in the shower, driving or when I am trying not to go to sleep.

Then there is the stuff that I would love to write because it is so funny, but part of it would absolutely humiliate someone. It's one thing to make myself sound like an idiot (which I frequently am, ask how I burned my hand) but it is another to do it to someone else.

I also think that the kind of blogs a person reads, says alot about them. I am kind of picky about which blogs I read. Some of them challenge me, some make me laugh, some tug at my heart. Most of them are people I would like to be friends with IRL although some do intimidate me (I am easily intimidated).

So with all that in mind, I received the Lovely Award from Crystal, a friend that I made in marketing class. She is an amazing lady with an awesome ministry (click on her name to go to her blog and find out more about her ministry). She gave me this award:

“These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.”

So my challenge was to narrow down my list to only 8 blogs.

That is so hard to do! I really needed to be able to award 10, but I stuck to the rules and chose eight. The odd thing is some of these people have no idea I have been stalking following them. I am horribly shy and so typically just lurk listen.

These bloggers are people I want to be friends with because they sound like girls I would love to sit and have coffee with. So in no particular order . . . the award goes to:
