Can I just tell you how much I have enjoyed the blog world? I've been blogging for a long time now, but until just recently haven't "spread my wings". As a SAHM, I tend to feel shut off from the social things I used to enjoy. No girlfriends to gab to like I used to, they're at home trying to entertain their kids too, or for the working moms...at work...slaving away. They don't have time for the random blatherings of a crazy woman (that's me). But it's been nice to keep in touch with friends I left when I moved this last summer through my blog. A couple of them actually blog as well. Makes it so fun! Montay and Alicia...thank you for blogging too! It makes my day when you've posted something new! And keeping in touch with family that lives far away has been so nice too. Jodie, Cam, Mel, Holly...I love seeing what you guys are up to! I would never know what my cute neices and nephews were doing otherwise. Although with you Cam...I'm mostly left not knowing what to say. But at least you let me know what's going on in the world! :0) And Mel, I know you have about 20 million things going on..but you need to get with the posting! Put down the Stephanie Meyer books and get blogging!
But, then all of a sudden...I got comments from people who live thousands of miles away. Some live close, but some live across the country. The first was from a gal who just entered the blog world, but lives right here in the same town. And oddly enough, her neice just happens to be in my son's class at school! Crazy huh? We met a few weeks ago, and she's a doll. By the way, Bonnie, I've been thinking perhaps you should start coming to my girls night. What do you think?
Anyway, it snowballed from there and through reading your blogs and getting your comments, it's like having friends all over the place! And you can never have too many friends. If I'm having a bad day, I can post and suddenly five people are telling me to feel better. I can't tell you what that means. So, even though I don't know most of you...I appreciate ALL of you! It's nice to know there are other moms out there that feel the way I do, and that can be Sassy like me too! It's good stuff! So, keep the comments coming. You make my day! It's almost addicting isn't it? But in a good way. I think. My husband would say otherwise. He thinks I'm crazy. (You'd think he would have figured that one out a long time ago!)
Happy Blogging!

What a nice post. I agree, I love blogging, I feel bad because I haven't posted for a while, but I feel like I have not done anything either. I just added something though and have included, so read mine and I've tagged you.
I would love to come to girls night! Thanks for thinking of me. And thanks for being my blogging "mentor". I'm still learning, but I appreciate knowing that someone is listening to me! I am oh-so-addicted to blogging!
:) I wanna come to your girls night out. I work with three girls and I like all of them (two I like a lot) and since all of us at one time mentioned how we don't have friends in town I suggested we get together to play cards once a month... but I don't think it'll happen. :( oh well. My friends always seem to move away from me. But it's been fun seeing you comment on our blog and we're looking forward to doing the tag one next week. Help give us something to blog about aside from feeling like mean moms and underpants ;)
