A Little Weekend Reading...

Image
By
I totally dropped the ball this week on my Weekend Reading. I've been busy trying to get ready for starting my student teaching next week & I've just really lost some momentum with my blog reading & commenting. That makes it hard to craft a post based on great things I've read lately when I haven't read much!! So I'm catching up on my reading & commenting tonight & in the meantime I decided to let you all into a little of my Google Reader action.

I currently am subscribed to 188 blogs or websites on my reader. They are organized into 22 folders. Here are a few of the blogs in a new folder I recently created called "Blog Buddies!" These are bloggers that I really consider friends. They comment regularly on my blog & many of them have emailed back & forth with me! This list doesn't include everyone in the folder, but I didn't want to give away all my secrets!! Plus it gives me a few more I can share if I get too overwhelmed once student teaching starts! Please check out these lovely friends of mine!


Also I have to share a little special shout-out to my friend Nikki at Mommy Oblongata!! She lives near me & actually ran into me at Target on Friday afternoon! It's the first time someone recognized me in real life from my blog! We knew that we lived close, so it wasn't a shock to run into her, but it was still really exciting!! Although I was pretty much a hot mess & was trying to maneuver Isis & her shopping cart cover & was doing it very ungracefully. When I walked away from Nikki I was thinking, "wow she probably thinks I'm crazy!"

I think I actually discovered "Another Lunch" through one of your past posts. She has the most fun ideas for her kids lunches!! I don't know if I will ever be good about that, but I love seeing what she comes up with, and it gives me good ideas for healthy lunches in general (even if they aren't also cute)!
Good luck with your teaching!!

I love you, you are such a doll! Thanks so much for thinking of me! I read many of those blogs too. You will be GREAT at your student teaching. If there's anything I've learned in the past few weeks of my crazy job, it's do what you can and don't feel bad you can't get to every blog thing everyday. Good luck!

Ack! It was so good to see you on Friday! First, I felt like such a stalker! Secondly, I thought it was so odd that I recognized you so easily and thirdly I had the same hot mess feeling. I actually thought, "Wow, on a day I meet someone for the first time, I could have at least wore some makeup!"

10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite 6 Month Pics

By
This is completely gratuitous, just me posting pictures of Isis, but my friend Hannah took some pictures of our family yesterday! She is such a great photographer & she is also going to be watching Isis for me in the fall when I start my student teaching. I feel so blessed to have her as a friend on top of the fact that she takes gorgeous pictures of Isis!! I also realized that I didn't put any of the ones where she is smiling in this post. This just means I'll have to post more another time! Get excited! (And this is not a great comment-grabbing post , but who cares? This is for the digital baby book!)

How to Efficiently Read Blogs

By
Have you ever been just completely overwhelmed by the sheer volume of blogs out there you can read? I have. Wow. So many fabulous people I'm interested in reading about! I love the stories, the humor, the pictures, the tips, the giveaways, the links, I just love it all! So I've found myself having to streamline my blog reading in order to better manage my time & make sure I hit the "must-reads" for me. Here's how I've done it: First of all, if you leave a comment on my blog or if you follow my blog, I will go to your blog & at the very least I will follow you on Google Friend Connect . This way the blog shows up on my blogger dashboard when I log in. I always look over the new posts that are there when I log in each day, but if you've looked at my Google Friend Connect page lately, you'll see that I follow a lot of people's blogs! So I had to come up with a more specific approach in addition to the blogger dashboard. This is where my Goog...
