About Me

I am a not yet 55 year old woman married for 25+ years, 4 kids, 1 dog and 1 cat. The kids are beginning to leave home. One is launched, one is in college and 2 are still at home. As a couple we are entering the final stage of our parenting journey: the teenage years and beyond. We are starting to dream and think and plan for those years when the house is quiet and it is just us once again. Please join me as I explore what it means to grow older with adventure and grace.

Blogs Worth A Click: I Love Your Blog Award Addition

 I had received this award once before (thanks again Gina). The award is on its second and third rounds through the e-card universe. I was feeling like a wallflower at a bloggy party because no one had sent it my way again. (Cue sad tragic music!)

I enjoy blog awards because there are lots of blogs I read and am happy to pass on some link love. Therefore I was surprised and delighted to receive it from Nicole at The Daily Dish and Ryan and Kathy at Trapped in the Office.

The Daily Dish offers a dose of interesting commentary and great recipes. Check out the one for Pumpkin Empanadas.

Trapped in the Office is a new to me blog.Ryan and Katy have escaped the cororated world for that of  freelance writerdom. The post about what some people want to pay freelancers is an good place to join their adventure.

The rules, you get to post the cute logo on your blog, link back to who ever was kind enough to award it to you and pass it on to seven other blogs. I have one alternative rule. Writing award posts is more time consuming than you might think. I prefer this award be a appreciation for blogs I enjoy, not a burden to the receivers. So pass it on if you like or not. Either way these are all blogs that are worth a click.

The Junk Drawer. Kathy will have to start a special page just for all the awards she receives.They are given with good reason. This is a favorite of mine to read.

JD at I Do Things So You Don’t Have To will soon need a separate page also. A great humor blog with an unique hook.

Gail at Life After Death: a widow’ story is a new blogger. She tells the story of her husband’s death and her new life journey. Gail is an excellent writer. If you have a moment to leave her a comment that would be encouraging to her.

Consecrated Life. A well written blog about a life most of us know little about.

Diane at Foreign Language Fun  A useful resource for anyone interested in teaching children a foreign language. Many of the resources are free.

Kid Tech Guru A 14-year-old tech blogger. I don’t pretend to understand all Xavier posts about but I can pick up enough to impress my personal tech princess for a short while. He has a blog contest going on.

Mid Life Misfits Another favorite that never fails to produce a smile.
