Can I just tell you a little unexpected way my life has gotten oddles better lately? It may seem a bit silly, but really -- I assure you, much much better. Let me tell you the story. You see, last week, as I opened the chaos I call my google reader, I decided it was high time that little blog-reading space got organized. I hadn't touched it since a kind friend helped me get it all started a few years ago (I had eons of unread posts from sites I never checked), and it was high time I gave some method to the madness.
And so I did. Be gone randomly organized sites! Off you go no-longer-posting blogs! Away with you jumbled organizational mess! And poof, my world got better just like that. And can I tell you, organizing by subject matter just makes my blog browsing SO much better. It's like my little brain now has a queue for what we are going to look at and is therefore more prepared to absorb and digest all those great ideas and photos people put out there. It really is really great. So. If you want my advice and feel like you are in a non-productive rut, I say do it. Organize that reader of yours. Make it into a bounteous tool that is there to only please you and provide you with all that great inspiration you are seeking. You won't regret it.

How do you create those files?
Hey Maggie! When you are in google reader, you just select one of the blogs you follow so it's highlighted, then you right click and one of the options is "create new folder." Once you click that, you can name the folder that you want that blog to be in, and then from there you can drag and drop other blogs on your list into that same folder.
oh ok thanks! Don't you love that I still read your blog!
I do! It made me so happy to see your comment this morning! I saw you over on A Blog About Love a while ago. It was so great to see your cute face on there. I bet their presentation was awesome -- she seems like a real great-head-on-her-shoulders type of gal.
