Day 5: My Blog-Stalker Blogs

The actual prompt for today is: "Publicly profess your love and devotion for one of your blogger friends. What makes them great? Why do you love them? If you don't have blogger friends, talk about a real-life friend or even a family member."  Folks...I read a lot of blogs.  And since I can't narrow it down to one, I've given you a summary of my favorites.  Enjoy.

Daily:
LemmonRuffle - a friend from school who has lost an obscene amount of weight this year.  I love reading about her fierce commitment to keeping herself healthy.  It's motivating, and once I'm down to my weight-loss goal, I plan to follow up with a maintenance plan using her clean eating philosophy.  And she's a good writer and funny.

Passionate Penny Pincher - I've already talked about how much I love her - posts here and here.

Live, Laugh, Love - a besty who has been a CLOSET BLOGGER since October.  We had words.  (I'm outing you right here and now.)  She blogs about her beautiful family and about life lessons she is learning.  Also inspiring and great fun to read.  I am very proud of her 100% participation in the July blog challenge! (But I could use more posts from you the rest of the time, please. Otherwise I'll have to move you to my next list,)

Every few days:
Oh Pickles Mommy - a friend from church whose craftiness makes me hang my head in shame.  She has four children and is like, Super Mom with all the fun, cute things she does with and for her kids.  She helped me throw a shower for my sister-in-law last summer and it was adorable.  As is she.

AlexandJolie - another friend from work who blogs about her sweet life with her husband and two children, who are about the same genders and years apart as my kids, but a few years ahead.  She also blogs about financial goals, which is interesting and helpful.

The Domestic Wannabe - this is the wife of a friend of mine.  We used to work together at the golf course and we went to high school together.   They were high school sweethearts so I would always hear about "Ashley this, Ashley that" at work.  I adored them, and I still get to via this blog.  I was a guest-poster in January - check it out here.

Savoring the Sweet Stuff - another friend from work, though she has sadly moved on (tear) to another city and building.  She is expecting a baby soon and I remember so many car pooling rides discussing babies, pregnancy, and all the stuff in between.  So excited for her!

Every week or so:
The G Sides - this is our pastor's blog.  He also writes for the church website, so between the two of them, I get a pretty healthy dose of Grant via the cyber waves.  He is a fabulous writer.  He should write a book.  Ooo...I should tell him that.

LNop - this blog belongs to a friend of mine from elementary school.  I'm friends with her on Facebook and her status updates are always so outrageously funny.  I've been bugging her to start a blog for quite some time, and lo and behold, she did.  It hasn't been updated in a while (get on that, lady!), but this post is particularly hilarious.  And I don't think you have to know her to think so.

Heart, Soul, Tummy - this is also a friend from work.  I was about to give up on her, but she has revived her blog with the July blog challenge.  I hope she keeps it up.  And she really should, considering I'm not going to see her every day any more! (Ahem)

And there you have it - my blog-reading list.  It keeps me connected and highly entertained. :)
