• TAG

  Kate tagged me:

  Pick five Xangans that you feel the need to read everyday
  2) Write a description of why YOU read and their blog and how it has helped you or entertained you or anything else it has done for you
  3) Tag ten of your friends to do this and I am sure this will allow other fellow Xangans to actually hear and read other blogs they don't generally read.
  
  CONSIDER YOURSELF TAGGED!

  The title of this made me think of a cat I rescued. His name was Tag...well his name was changed to Tag after he got over giving us a reason to call him Shitty Kitty. That's another story, though.
  
  Here are some of my favs...in the order I subscribed to them. I have lots of other reads that I enjoy, but these are the only ones that have posted this year:

  Wakeuposleeper & S_MT - my twin cousins, I started this Xanga thing because of them. They have fun adventures, take most EXCELLENT pictures, and give a good read...when they post. HINT, HINT. Anyhow, I read them because I love them and like I said they're a good read. I shouldn't have grouped them together. Lord knows they probably get more of that than they can stand. I will just say that they are certainly their own person. Just as different as they are the same. But I group them because they both share wonderful traits like being the most sincerely kind and caring people you've ever encountered. I have a hard time when it comes to stopping when it comes to Anna & Sarah. I cherish them.

  MLBNCSGA - my Aunt Marsha. Because I love her and she makes sure you don't miss anything of interest in the night sky. Because she posts pretty pics. And just to keep up with the Georgia side of my family in general...for instance, she blogged about being a Grandmother again just last week! Congratulations again! Because Marsha is incredibly cool, knows a lot about a lot, lives on a Creek, raises Lab dogs, and she has taught me much about how one can choose to handle adversity. She is more special to me than she'll ever, ever, ever know. I value her just like I do my own wonderful mother. ILYM!

  Mikka2979 - Because I love her and because she is one of my very best friends. Even though we chat regularly enough that I usually know what's going on in her life. It's still fun to see the pictures of her & her family and reading about her goings on instead of talking to her on the phone, it makes it easier to stop and pray for her.

  Shellisland - Because I love her soooooo much! She is my Mother! And I enjoy her blogs. She surprises me with some of the things she writes about. She is everything I wish to be. She knows things and can do things that I wish I could know and do. I've got so much more to learn from her. There is nothing she can't do. She has sacrificed much for me, but has never brought it to my attention. She is my counselor, my nurse, my friend, my heart. Words can not describe how much I love her, my eyes well up with tears just thinking about how deep my love flows for her.

  Morgan1998 - Because I love her and she too is one of my best friends. We don't see each other enough and it's nice to catch up with her on Xanga. She needs to post more though, I know she will. She has been a solid and good friend to me through some of the more difficult times of my life. Specifically, Junior High and 10 years later a divorce. That's true friendship, folks.

  Amyadore - Because I love her - is this a theme or what? Anyhow, Amy is sooo creative and I love her picture stories. She throws great parties and I like to look at her site and daydream about copying her great party ideas...but I won't because I'm not good at that stuff like she is. She is very thoughtful and caring, she is the type that not only thinks of something nice to do for someone but actually takes the time to do it. People like her are RARE and that makes her very special to me.

  Elacorn - Because I love her - and she lives in Arizona. And I don't get to see her enough either. Because she posts real life Mommy stories that we all can relate to. She also posts great pictures of her precious girls. Sometimes reading her stuff just makes me want to give her a hug. She too has great party ideas...it's so cool to have friends that make great hostesses! It's most fun for me to read and think about what a great woman she has turned into. She strives to do right and good things by her children, her husband, and fellow man. She makes the world a better place to live in.

  Tabatha_Mindy - Because I love her. She has great stories to tell, this I know...she is just busy. I keep subscribed to her and keep reading, because I know one of these days I'll be blown away. Simply blown away. Period.

  Am79 - Because I love her. She is good to post about life's challenges and triumphs. And because she titles everything with what she fixed for dinner the night before. Just go to her page for dinner ideas! She's funny, knows what's important in this world, kind, and simply someone I just enjoy.

  MyHatIsOlderThanYou - because I love him. My friend Kate worded my thoughts perfectly when she said "the man spins a good yarn like a cowboy should and has taught me more than I can ever thank him for. I have learned how to be a little kinder and hold my tongue a little more from the cowboy." - Seriously, he is one of the coolest friends that I know and love, but have never met.

  K8thelate - because I love her. I really, really do. It's like I'm reading something my Mom or Aunt or someone in my family could have written. She is a kindred spirit, smart, tells a great story, likes a great story, thinks my kid is cute, likes animals, is brave & strong, & makes me feel at home when I'm reading her stuff. She is a keeper, always will be. I look forward to the day when we all go thrift store shopping together...my Mom and I are convinced Kate will know the best places to go.

  Maggiemae79 - because I love her. Talk about keeping it real. I know very few people who are as candid and honest as Maggie. She makes me laugh with her stories and I'm a sucker for a good story. She's super fun and I miss her being in this part of the country, so it's good to read her posts. She's one of those people you just like to sit and listen to....you're constantly entertained, even if she's talking about making dinner. It's a great story. She's also a good person, she's true, and she makes life richer when she's around.

  Ahna4 - because I love her. She is my cousin and she's lived a most interesting life. She's one of those jack of all trades types...except she tends to master plenty. You love her as soon as you meet her. One of the smartest people I've ever known, not throw it in your face smart, just I bet Lanette would know why/how kind of smart. She also kind of gets the insanity of me. She is patient, selfless, sincere, and just plain neat. Really, you just keep keeping how cool and neat she is when you're in her home or listening to her.

  NVGal - I haven't known her long, but I know she's had some experiences that I envy. I know she is a good parent. Anyone that volunteers to lead a Girl Scout Group or 4-H club is a good parent, almost automatically. I like hearing about some of the things she encounters during her days...sometimes it's even wild horses. How cool is that?

  Doahsdeer - Because it's almost always a good read. He writes well and gives tips on how to do the same. I read to remember that one of these days I'll have the time to write well again. For now, it's easy a necessity to be lazy with my grammar and writing. 

  Suns3 - because I love her and anything my precious Aunt writes is worth reading. Anything. She is loved and adored by our entire family. She is a gem, one of a kind. Just thinking of her and I can hear the sound of her laugh. Makes me happy. 

  Wildkatbrat - because I love her and she is my cousin, too. I had to smile as soon as I came to her name. Just read her 100 list and you'll be hooked, too. This girl is a pistol. And she is brave, goofy, genuine, intelligent, and caring.  She lives and loves life to the fullest.

  JFWylie - because he is a new Xangan...and some of the things he has posted about I can relate to. I read because I know there will be more.

  TammyG1989  - because I love her. She is my cousin, too. She is new to Xanga and hasn't started posting yet...but I know she will and that it will be good. I bet she includes pics of her pretty, precious kids, HINT, HINT!

  Okay, that's it. Like I said there are others that I like to read. They just rarely post.

  Love to all!
