A New Discovery

I feel like a doofus for not knowing about this sooner, but I just discovered my Google Reader!  I follow a lot of blogs.  I mean, over 50--not really sure how many.  There is a way to check, but I don't really feel like doing that right now.  (It's 61--I checked after I posted this.)

I usually just go to my Blogger dashboard and scroll through the latests posts.  If something looks interesting, I click on it and check it out.  Sometimes I skip a few days, and I miss stuff that way.  I discovered the Google Reader right about the time I realized I hadn't check the blogs in a few weeks.

I had over a thousand unread posts.  Apparently, it stops counting after 1000.  Haha.  I love it b/c I can click on each blog and scroll through the posts.  Or I can mark everything on that blog as "Read" so it doesn't show up again.  (For example, I follow the Swapping Spoons blog, and she posts coupons and good deals.  Most of those expire fairly quickly, so there is no reason to go back and read old posts.)

Uh-mazing!!  So I've been catching up this week.  I've missed some pretty cool stuff!  These ladies are fantastic.  So creative.  Some of them are working moms, and I don't know when they have the time for their crafts and home projects.  I'm a single working girl, and I rarely have time to do stuff!  I'm down to under 500 now.  Of course, following over 50 blogs means I usually have over 50 new posts a day.  Once I get caught up, it will be a breeze to keep up!

I'm so excited!
