My Blog Is Fabulous!!

Uh Huh! Melissa told me so!



She crack me up all the time. She has a whole handful of kids and still has time to 'talk' with us all the time. I get so much of what she goes through and that's nice to have someone know exactly how you feel. She gave me this award today and it made me so...well...confused.


What makes a blog fabulous? Number of followers, number of comments, being true to who they are, being funny all the time....



I started this thinking no one would ever read it, and if they did, never read it again. But, I was wrong. My little following is small but you know what, I like it that way. I see some blogs that have like 50+ comments on every post and all I can think of is "Damn, how do they keep up with all those people?" I'm guessing they don't. I could be wrong though. I just know I don't have that kind of time.



So my definition of a 'fabulous blog' is one that I enjoy reading everyday (or at least when they post) that I can laugh at/with, cry for/with, or just really get. (Not one that seems fake or made up or that seems like they lost the reason they started it. If it's to only 'entertain' then you aren't the same person that started this journey. I guess unless you started it only to entertain.) One that feels comfy enough to say whatever is on their mind no matter what. I have been lucky enough to 'meet' some really cool, real, down to earth folks out here in bloggyland.



Back to the award. I have to tell you 5 things that I think are fabulous.

1. My Mom. If I could be like anyone, it would be her.


2. My boots. They are the only shoes I have ever worn that I can actually stand on hard floors longer than 30 min without my back killing me.


3. Beer. Nuff said!


4. Taco Bell. YUMMY!


5. Texas winters. Cold, but not too cold. Cold enough for a fire but not so cold that you get frost bite!

Now I gotta pick 5 blogs I think are fabulous so here they are:

I take that back. My signal on my internet is really screwing up so I'm only telling you 2 of them.

• C at The Scattered Mind of a Tattooed Minivan Mom. If only you could have heard/read some of our conversations. They get a little (ok, a lot) out there sometimes. She is a crazy tattooed Mama but one hell of a Mama. She's raisin' those kids right. She might just make you think twice if you judge tattooed cussing biker folks. :)

• Alicia at Yaya Stuff. We have gone through a lot of the same things in life but also been so different in life. She is so honest about everything. I love reading her 'stuff' because she also is a very 'real' person.

Thanks again Melissa!
