My Go At “I Love Blogging: The Meme”
Summer-Minor from Mom is Teaching tagged me to say 5 reasons why I love blogging. The rules are simple, give five reasons why you love blogging and tag five other bloggers. No tag backs either but be sure to let them know who tagged you.
1.I like taking time out of my day to reflect on life and use it as a check for where I’m going and where I’ve been.
2.Everyone should become an expert at something. Writing a blog on a single subject forces you to spend lots of time learning about that subject. At some point on the way I’m bound to become an expert—though I’m not there yet.
3.I”ve only been doing this for a short period of time, but I’m starting to meet people and see that they too are going through similar experiences. I’m especially glad to see that there are those out there that feel the way I do about reality TV.
4.On those challenging days with the stepdaughter its nice to know that I’ve got a place to vent.
5.Knowing that I’m going to write about what has been going on in my life has changed the way I’ve handled certain situations. It’s like my conscience has been doing some weight training and is now stronger than ever.
I’m tagging:Bryan from Sympathy Pain, Pete from Great Circle, Sarah from The Anvil Tree, Gayle from Parenting Teens, and Ellen from Parenting Under the Stars

Jonathan of Step Family Talk tagged me to mention five reasons I love blogging. Here’s what I think after blogging for four months.
1. I have an outlet. I can say my piece without argument from kids. The blog doesn’t “talk back.” At least not yet.
2. It’s a way for me to be involved in a writing community. Writing my novel was lonely business. It was intense and draining and blogging is lighter and more instantly rewarding.
3. It’s a way for me to record my life for whoever might be interested now or in the future.
4. It’s a way for me to sit and gather my thoughts and then respond to an also reflective audience.
5. It keeps me from going stark raving MAD!

I loved this meme, was tagged last month. I too love that ya can vent there and remember things that have passed. My children are now doing their own blogs for the summer and can’t wait to learn about their subjects. I love the fact they want to read and write now.
