Welcome to my little corner of blogland! This is the only sane spot I can come in my crazy life! :) Here I share my sometimes funny sometimes NOT-day to day insanity I call my life, along with my sweet wooly hubby & all our boys :)

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; there is where they should be.
Now put foundations under them.

Blogs that inspire me part 2

*Trying out these new google documents, I believe you can publish to blogger from here, but I can also SAVE IT if blogger binges my post again.

Ok on with the non-quilter bloggers who make me think :)

Laura is a single mom of her beautiful special needs son Aaron. She is so young, and so fun :) I think she and I would laugh all night long if we ever got together. AND SHE QUILTS :)

Grim Reality Girl is a very eloquent blogger, you feel what she feels as she shares. She lost her mom last year and she is as acquainted with depression pit as I am.

Kelli is a sweet mom and a strong Christian. She is currently on the nat'l donor list for a kidney transplant. Her blog will floor you as you read how she stays faithful and hopeful. Go read it, pray for her and her family, and sign up to be an organ donor. You cant take 'em with you :)

QUILT BLOGGERS

Susan (desertsky quilting) is one of the most generous, giving people I've ever met online. And I dont say that because she has sent me a book and some other goodies, I say that because of her work for Quilts of Valor, giving quilts to soldiers and their familes...but also because last year Susan gave me the gift of believing in myself. And she is a strong Godly woman who is very quiet and dignified about her faith :)


Jenny is tons of fun to read. She has a farm, a cow named Mona, pretty kitties, and she quilts :) I want to come stay a week or two with her lol.

Nancy is friendliness personified. She always takes time out for a personal word or encouragement.

Susan(patchwork reflections), Jeanne and Finn all remind me of the phrase "still waters run deep". They are full of wisdom, and they can crank out some awesome quilts in record times LOL.

All my favorite quilt bloggers are the ones that share parts of their lives, not just fabric and quilts and notions. Otherwise we are like co-workers that never really get to know each other outside the job. This was kinda hard to do because I read 154 blogs LOL. But just know that if you are on my blogroll you are my favorite indeed! xoxo melzie

PS now you guys are suppose to tag 5 more bloggers.

Moi? A blog that makes you think?! :)

Holy Thinking Bloggers! I was tagged as a blog that makes you think! My mouth literally fell open when I read that Clare had tagged me. My blog is such a mismatch patwork of my chaotic thoughts but I am glad to know someone besides me likes it LOL.

Ok well first off I broke the rules by having more than 5 to tag.

Then I broke the rules a bit more, because I have quilt bloggers to tag, and non-quilt bloggers. Hope thats ok ;) If you see a blog you dont know, please stop by and read it I wouldnt recommend it if it were not very very good! Ok on to the linky love. *Apparently I have to do this in two posts, is there a size limit to posts perhaps? :( It ate half my post again wahhh*


OTHER BLOGS
Boomama FUNNIEST. BLOG. EVER. But not only funny, its FUN to visit there. And Boomama has a heart for Christ, and for others. Seriously if I could pick one person in blogland to meet in real life it would be her :)

Randi is one of my best blogger buds. She quilts, she prays, she did a Christian Book study with me that helped me push thru my depression last year. AND she made me a PURSE (look on her blog for a link to her online store and see how cool it was to get THAT in the mail :)

Laurel has a blog for God. She is such an inspiration to me in how she lives and parents and gives back to others. You will not be sorry you visited her blog, you'll be refreshed! (and we are in the moms of 3 boys support group LOL)

Heather is the mom of Emma Grace. And I'd have picked her even before this week just because she parents her special needs daughter in such a way to inspire anyone. But last week Heather herself found herself facing the valley of the shadow of..well. Click the link. And pray for her and her family. And be blessed by her faith immediately. See next post for more...

*updated to add blogger is eating posts left and right :( Heartburn curses to you blogger and I'll be back later to add more :) xoxo melzie
