A few days ago I shared a list that was going around of what is now being called the W-List. Tonight as I was out visiting one of the newest sites that I found linking back to me I read this wonderful comment from the list’s creator and I thought it was something that should be shared:
“First off, thank you for welcoming the list and all those talented authors and thinkers in your online home. If you’d like to see interests, Elysa (my new personal hero) classified the list that way here http://www.genpink.com.
Someone also created a wiki of the list here http://wmagicallist.wikispaces.com
I have been humbled by the gift of each contribution to this list. One person at a time, you have all told a story about your readings and passions through the list. Please keep the momentum going. Go ahead and reach out to these fabulous people, find reason to work on a co-authored post or project together. There is so much richness and talent on this list!
Valeria Maltoni”
I don’t know about you, but that kind of warm response just made me feel great and I felt like everyone should have a chance to know the kind of woman who is responsible for this connecting project.
Here’s the most recent list:

I seem to have this common refrain lately and it’s all about time. Time going too fast, times and seasons, the burnout of anticipated changes in times, etc. Today I continue with what I hope will bring some closure to this for me. It’s time.
It’s time that I get off the computer and finish up the last things I need to do for my trip. It’s time to get away and rejuvenate the batteries. It’s time to spend a weekend with my sisters and mom and just have fun. It’s time.
I send my apologies now for the many blogs I’m behind on and that I’ll be even more behind on. But I look forward to returning next week with renewed vigor, energy and my blogg’n groove. For now I’m off to go live a little and restore some much needed balance. I hope everyone has a fantastic rest of the week and weekend.
I’m doing the celebration dance. (Sorry no pics, you’ll just have to use your imagination.)Thanks to my hubby I’ve finally got my blog more the way I want it. Yay!! I’ve been wanting to declutter the blog bog for a while now as well as make navigating what I blog easier. He helped me tweak a few little bugs and add some thematic elements to my navigation.
It was so nice to get a few things done that I’ve been thinking about for so long. The blog bog of the sidebar has really been bugging me for a while. I wanted it in it’s own place that didn’t distract my blog. I wanted to make it easier to read what I write and see what my corner is all about and why it exists. You can now read some of my series and best articles in a single click under the worthy reads side bar section. I’m so happy about it I just have to twist and shout!

I can’t help but find a worry nerve when bloggers I keep up with suddenly disappear. I totally understand the need for sabbaticals. I think all of us have times when other life demands and schedules will take precedence over our blogging but when some that I really enjoy just drop off with no notice I can’t help but worry. And I’m always relieved when they reappear. *wink*
As for you two: Long Relationships, and The Classic Life…Where are you? I hope you’re okay.

General Relationships Blogging
Well, nothing like starting the year with an impromptu weekend getaway! We’re heading out in a few hours for Las Vegas. We’ll take in a few days with Grandma and sights/scenes of the town - so far as you can go with two little ones in tow that is. *wink*
So I’ll be off for a few more days checking in as I am able, but rest assured, I’ll be back full throttle next week when the kids go back to school!!
I’ve been tagged again, but this one is a little different. This time it was a “drop everything and take a picture…as you are!” Now, this by itself can be downright frightening, given that most of my computer hours are spent in the early morning, but I lucked out in that I caught this e-mail tonight, so you’ll get the end of the day version. LOL
While I enjoy seeing everyone in a candid shot and setting, I’ll not tag anyone this time around as it seems to be multiplying a bit rapidly of late. But you’ve been warned!
Our server seems to be sharing the same sluggish symptoms I’ve had all week. I’m wondering if it’s contagious?
We’ve had a light case of sniffles and throat tickles this week and I attribute most of my wacky week to that. It seems that little health quirks can sure put you on tilt. Even if it’s not the reason, it makes me feel better to put it there. *wink* Whatever it is, it’s been weird. I feel like I’ve been spending more time dog paddling this week than being productive. It may be a natural balance of the universe coming off a few weeks of super productivity but whatever it is I’m not happy about it.
Coincidentally, my husband has been working on the server all week trying to tune it to the traffic influx and he’s not happy about it. And when the server and it’s admin aren’t happy - ‘aint nobody happy. LOL
