Guest Editor's Picks -- February 8, 2008

Hope you all
enjoyed the Super Bowl last weekend, that Big Easy readers had a fun
'08 Mardi Gras, & that ALL everywhere have a lovely upcoming
Valentines Day on the 14th!
Guess who's Guest Editor this week? It's me! WOO HOO! Doing a little happy dance! {{}}
Getting my 15 minutes of fame! LOL
So, TY Journal Editors. hehehe
I was totally surprised when Vish asked if I'd be willing to participate. ;)
I'm told I need to write a few lines about myself, then pick 5-7 fav journals. So, here goes:
My name is Sugar, from:   MY BELOVED FURR BABIES,  A LITTLE BIT OF SUGAR, PLEASE (private, email for admittance),  SUGAR SHACK KEEPSAKES,  From My Kitchen To Yours,  PRAISE & PRAYER (private, email for admittance),  J-LAND PET MEMORIAL,  African Memories,  &  Honduras & Philippines Remembered.  Many of you already know me, as I have several blogs in J-Land!  :) 
My main journal, & praise journal are private, but you can always email & ask for admittance... the others are open to all. I'm
an over 50, over weight, retired nurse, minister, former worker with
the homeless, & foster mother to abused children for many yrs. I'm
a grandmother, with multiple health conditions, living with my Son
& his family in MO now, altho I'm a TX gal orig. My 3 girls (dogs)
keep me company.
I have been in J-Land a little over 2 yrs, &
only started on a computer shortly before that. Must say that I have
found J-Landers to be such nice people, & have made many friends
here. Since I'm disabled & mostly housebound, J-Land means a lot to
me. {}
So, visit any of my journals, you're bound to find at least one that sparks your interest.
I
write about a little of everything, from my hum drum life & family
issues, to my fight with Cancer, TN, OA, Depression, & my battle
with weight... trying to keep an upbeat journal as I do so. My
other journals are about my pets, recipes, graphics I make, religion...
well, you get the ideal, I have a blog for it all. LOL
I'll wager when I was asked to write a "few lines" about myself, he never thought I'd write a chapter. hehehe :)

There are so many wonderful blogs that I read, it's hard to try & pick just 7...

So, I'll just pop down a few that you may not have read, (unless you're a regular reader of mine, then you probably know these) in no specific order:

 1. Millies Meanderings   (private
but you may email & ask for admittance) lovely lady in the UK who
has so much on her plate. just read her archives. now she's dealing
with her teen dtr fighting throat cancer. yet both stay cheerful most
of the time, they're warriors in a tough fight, but have the faith,
hope, & courage to win!

2. TNT  i've
known this lady from before she started a journal, we were in the
same online weight loss group. she tells about her family life, posts
jokes & poems, & her beliefs, you'll enjoy taking a peek.
 3. I Shall Overcome  writes about her everyday life, jokes, etc. she also came up with the journal to honor J-Landers who have passed away... J-LAND ANGELS

4. My Day, My Interests 
great photos, you'll love browsing through her journal, it's so
uplifting with the beautiful pics. plus some information on a few of
her posts.

5. My Brain Is In Pain  this
one is AC (adult content) for some of it, & at times controversial,
but he's so funny!!! You'd never know he lives in so much pain, seldom
mentions it. {{}} also, his aunt passed away this week, so leave
condolences please.

6. Me Thinks Too Much  funny
& entertaining as she talks about her day to day life. right now
she has a broken leg, but she doesn't let that get her down! she's like
the energizer bunny, she keeps going!

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

And last, but FAR from least...

A fairly popular blog, so many already know of it, but I just had to add it...

7. My Simple Rhymes  like no other blog I read. i love her, she's a sweet online friend. this dear lady in the UK, journals about her life, all in rhyme. you'll love it & her. ;) She's been feeling "down" lately, so give her an uplift by saying HI.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

7 already?
GRRR I could've kept going! So many terrific blogs out there to be
read! Many with lots of followers, & some with only a few. But each with a story!
If
I didn't pick yours, know that I love each of those I read or I
wouldn't read them! But I was only allowed 7, so I chose a few of the
ones that the majority of J-Land might not know about.

Well, there you have it, the powers that be...say only 7, LOL.
