Around the Blogosphere

What to read some posts (or watch a video) that I thought were pretty great this past week?

Check these out:

Hands Free Mama wrote a post called Moment of Impact that impacted me. I’ve been talking to my husband about sharing more deeply here on The Sensible Mom about real life. How hard it is to be a mom sometimes. How hard it is to be a mom to 5 kids. Along with the joys, I struggle. I’m thinking about sharing a post maybe once a week that goes a bit deeper into our everyday lives.

This isn’t a new post, but I just read it this week and thought it was packed with helpful information. It’s titled, What Copywriters Know That the Rest of Us Don’t on Sarah Mae’s website, It’s the Idea.

This next one is a video and not a post, but I can totally relate to it and thought it was funny. It really captures what it’s like to be a blog/website designer sometimes. 🙂 The website is about letting people know about free legal documents, so that they don’t get taken advantage of.

Whole New Mom wrote a post on how to make Amazing Homemade Glass Cleaner that it definitely worth trying.

Wellness Mama wrote a post about what A Typical Day looks like for her, and I just love reading these types of posts. Love reading how other moms go about their days.

 

Here are my 5 must read posts from this past week. I hope you find one that encourages you.

Are You Called to be Small? on the Allume Social blog – We are not all called to be “big” bloggers, I’m embracing that.

Tips for Becoming Friends with Your Daughter on Stay-At-Home Daughter – Another reminder that I need to be intentional and Make Time to be friends with my girls

How to Overcome Burnout and Get Back on a Routine on Money Saving Mom – I’ve been feeling so stressed with life lately (not a big surprise since we’ve undergone such huge changes recently), it has been affecting me physically. This post was a good reminder of what I need to do to get back on track……time with God, sleep, and realizing how blessed I am.

3 Tips to Keep Things Organized on Blogging with Amy – This post encouraged me to get some organization going. I was encouraged to get stuff out of my head and onto paper. This definitely helps to keep stress at bay. Amy also mentions some good websites I’ve bookmarked for when I have time….

Gluten Free Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies on Deliciously Organic – I’ve been having Breanna practice her baking skills for school, and we’ve been having fun trying out new recipes. I wanted Breanna to try making some ‘healthier’ cookies, though. The recipe I found on Deliciously Organic was perfect! The cookies are gluten free and don’t have any flour, but they taste like they do. We loved these cookies, and I’ll definitely have Breanna make them again.
