Be sure to stop back by again tomorrow for the last day of links and a chance at winning yet another welcome gift in celebration of the new home of My Quiet Corner!
I read blogs because it's a way to stay connected. Not just to people I actually know, but to others who share my interests, views, and passions.
ReplyDeleteI live far from family, and my friends are scattered across the states. Through blogging I find encouragement and support as a wife, mother, nurse, friend, and Christian.

ReplyDeleteI started reading blogs out of curiosity, and wanting to learn about certain things, and then I found friends online (you could probably name at least 1 of them!) and I pretty much read everything they post! Plus some friends bribe you with the temptation of chocolate!
ReplyDeleteRight now I read the bloggers who are dear to me, and I like to read about homeschooling, saving money on groceries (i.e. where the sales and coupons are), and about cooking and keeping a home in general (not just housekeeping, big difference.)
Chocolate, yum! Have you ever visited The Homeschool Lounge? It is not actually a blog but a great homeschooling group online. I lean towards homeschooling and Christian related blogs for the most part, with the occasional food or homemaking blog thrown in for good measure.
ReplyDeleteI read funny blogs and mom blogs. My daughter isn't of school age, yet, but maybe when's she's of that age, I'll be looking into homeschooling/schooling blogs!

Ohhhhh...yum! Pick me! Pick me!
ReplyDeleteI read blogs to get ideas/inspiration that will benefit my faith, my family or my home. Favorite topics are recipes, homeschooling, creative parenting ideas, fun activities for kids, and thing that encourage me in my walk with God.
Thanks for the great giveaways Donnetta!
I enjoy reading blogs from family members and friends.

This is a bit of a toughie. I read different blogs for different reasons. Some for friendship, others for ideas, others for the style of writing.
ReplyDeleteI read blogs for creative ways to keep my 3 year old engaged, for a good laugh, encouragement in the faith and another big time reason....TO BE THRIFTY AND SAVE SAVE SAVE with the greatest deals and coupons out there!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm with a lot of your other commentors - I read a variety of blogs for a variety of reasons.
ReplyDeleteWhen I started reading blogs it was to keep in touch with friends. Now, it's to keep in touch with friends old AND new, to learn ways to save money, to get new recipes, to grow closer to God through others' words, to share common experiences (the whole I AM NOT ALONE IN FEELING LIKE THIS concept).
Why do I stop reading some blogs then? Nasty language. Nasty attitudes. A focus solely on "poor me". I don't have time for that - and it doesn't enrich anything in my life.
Interesting question which I had to ponder a bit as I thought about the blogs I tend to regularly visit. I would have to say that the majority of my blog reading is for fellowship with other Christian women. Perhaps that has something to do with my age? I dunno?
