  Are you into blogs? YES!!!
  

  
  

  Why or why not? I guess I like aimless reading. 

  
  

  Do you have your own? Tell us about it! I used to, not worth sharing though. It was a food/cooking/lifestyle blog but I gave up on it when we were going through treatment. I just couldn't keep up with it. I'd like to start working on it again and center it around baby food and foods for the family.

  
  

  What types of blogs are you most into? Cooking, parenting, and organization.

  
  

  Share your favorite blog! I Heart Organizing for sure. I am obsessed. Love her kitchen and playroom ideas especially.

  Are you into blogs? Yes!

  
  

  Why or why not? I guess I'm intrigued by the lives of others.

  
  

  Do you have your own? Yes Tell us about it! It's just about my life, not very exciting.

  
  

  What types of blogs are you most into? Currently I'm into parenting blogs and blogs about overcoming loss. I guess I'm into blogs that have reference/relevance to my life.

  Why or why not?Good info, nice to have someone else do the work and I copy them on stuff I don't want to research or areas where I lack creativity. 
  Do you have your own? Tell us about it!I had one about 7 years ago. It was a tattle/humor blog on the building where I was living. I did it under a fake name.

  I was into blogs before M was born, but I honestly don't have time anymore.  I can hardly keep up with reading tweets!

  
  

  I do have my own blog(s).  One is sort of in hiatus now; it is mostly on the social things I do (80% reviews on symphony concert/ballet/opera I went to; 10% on travels; 5% restaurant reviews; and 5% on museum visits).  Now that M is here, I haven't really been able to do much of those, hence the hiatus.

  
  

  The 2nd blog I started after M was born, I write a new entry every week, keeping track of his life, his developments, as well as how I am adjusting.  I sometimes fall behind but so far I've been doing okay with it.

  
  

  The blogs I used to read about are mostly travel blogs or opera-related blogs or classical music blogs (amateurs writing reviews of concerts they went to).

  Are you into blogs? Yes! I read them daily and I follow a bunch, on all different topics.
