Keeping up with the Joneses in Blogitville
Between reading and commenting (and life going on somewhere in the middle) I finally took the time to make a list of the people I read and/or comment on. It was a tedious process but thankfully the purple coloring that comes up on the clicked blogs makes it easier. I was astounded to find that after...

One thing I've noticed about Blogit
and which has given me a strong, positive vibe about this place are the number of bloggers who generously share links that advertise potential writing jobs and/or take the time to write about how to get started, what expectations to have, etc. I thank those who have shared their insight. I say this...

Ever had a Charlie Brown day?
Ever had a day when.... You look in the mailbox, but find no Valentines? You go to punt that football but somebody swoops it away at the last second? Your baseball team never wins, try as you might? You come home from trick-or-treating, and all you got was a rock? You feel like a blockhead for...

People…people who need people…..
as sung by the great Barbra Streisand…there’s a question I’ve been asking myself as to how far people will go for this need. Case in point: while reading some of my favorite periodicals I have noticed how chock full the Personals ads column are (or, as I call them, the want ads) and how people are...

I have to blog today.....my butt hurts!
Well folks...that's what you get from overdoing it at the gym! The patootie is killing me as I strive for the never-ending quest to re-shape the "problem" areas....apart from my daily water aerobics and light weight reps, I also started a stretching class and an hour-and-a-half abs/cardio/glutes...

Everything is in order...now I can't find anything!
I am really challenging myself in my conversion...from being a complete and utter mess (that mess, not dirty!) to a tidiness freak. So I spent the whole weekend throwing out stuff I don't need, took inventory of all my books (well, that took me about four days on and off), cleaned out and...

The Pope Frowns On Women Who Have Children Later On In Life….
While reading through a magazine called Natural Lifestyle (it’s an Italian magazine even though the title’s in English) I came across an article about the perfect age for starting motherhood. The writer had interviewed six women from ages eighteen to forty who expressed their views on the pros, the...

Now, since when is coupon clipping a faux-pas?
I am a coupon clipper. Mind you, I’m not one of those hell-bent penny pinchers who will turn a newspaper upside down and inside out to find a miniscule supermarket coupon with an undecipherable expiration date, I don’t wait with baited breath for a whole batch of them to be delivered to my doorstep...

Thoughts on 30 something women
This is something a friend mailed to me this morning and I thought I'd share......how many of you female bloggers can see yourselves in this? Personally, I loved it! This is for all you girls 30 years and over... and for those who are turning 30, and for those who are scared of moving into their...

Do you ever let non-Blogit members in on what you write here?
I did it by chance, and I kind of regret it. What happened was, there's a band that I always talk about in my music blog. Since this band is struggling we're trying to rally all the support we can for them. I was chatting with two fans - who are also dear friends, mind you - when they said what they...
