This is basically it, Matilda. Some of the ladies are really good at keeping their blogrolls updated while I am awful at it.
Lissa a while back had put together and OPML file and freely gave it out (which is how mine was updated as well as it was then). But I don't know anyone who does. If someone does I hope she pops in here and lets us know.

Yes, Erin and I were discussing this.
If everyone wants it, I am willing to put together a blogroll list for everyone to add to their blogs.
I think the easiest would be to send to me in an email.
I'm going to be out of town next week, but I can put it together when I get back.
Spread the word!!!
My email is lpaula@frontiernet.net

Hey Jessica, I like your blog -- where are you in Colorado? There are a few of us in the Denver area and KimF is down in Colorado Springs.....
And I grew up in California -- the better half (that is, NORTHERN Cal!)

Thanks! I grew up in northern California, too. Definitely the better half of California.
I'm about an hour northeast of Denver, in the town everyone says they can smell when the wind blows the right way.

I love that I have found this forum but am afraid it is causing pangs of jealousy as I read your posts and blogs and it all looks so great and wonderful-how do you have time to do so many great things with your family and still find time for such creative blogs??

Danielle Bean asked bloggers to fess up about their flaws, and got hundreds of comments. Just read my post here on this topic.It felt so much better to come clean, but now the truth is out about my kitchen floor!

Feeling rather stuffed after eating too much at breakfast, I sat at the computer and let the kids watch TV .
But, while I was busy at the keyboard, I decided to add a 4 Real Learning Blog List at my blog's latest location. ( Sorry, I've moved it again.)
Anyway, the list of links turned out to be rather HUGE! So, I thought I'd try turning it into a post and making a link to the list on the sidebar. It seems to have worked!
So, I guess there's a more or less complete list of the 4 Real Blogs here. If I've missed you and you'd like your blog to appear, please PM me or say so in this thread. And if you'd like to be removed from this list, please mention that as well.
Thought someone may find it useful. Now, to get off my large butt and on to being with my children!

Susan, are you able to export that list as an OMPL file? That's what I did to share my (now sadly out of date) blogroll--Typepad has an easy export function. I tried to upload it here for easy access, but the forums can handle that kind of file, it seems.
Anyone who has a good updated blogroll should be able to export it for others to upload. I still get frequent requests for mine, even though I don't even have it in my sidebar anymore! (I felt bad about how out of date it was.)

I have a small blog - it really isn't very impressive at all - and I feel a little intimidated putting it out here amongst all of yours which are so incredible and such sources of inspiration for me. But here goes...Wildflowers and Marbles
Blessings,
Jennifer

Jennifer:
You sound so much like St. Therese! None of us is too small or unimpressive to share our blogs with each other. My blog is a bunch of personal reflections ~ a journal, really. I'm intimidated to publicize mine as other brave souls have done.
There *are* insipring ones out there, I know. And it can be a little intimidating to read their thought provoking and original posts (I don't remember when the last time was that I had an original thought) with lots of encouraging responses and then think of something of your OWN on which to write. But the beauty of a blog is that you can make of it what you want it to be. I haven't been very faithful to mine, it being spring and us cleaning and sorting and tossing and giving, lately. And I sometimes lose pictures, thereby losing an entire post. Often I start a post only to discard it. It wasn't special enough or I need to give my kids or husband or house attention.
Never fear. No one should feel so insignificant that her musings about life are not witty enough to share. Just think of yourself being part of a larger group of us ladies at a retreat. Then say what's on your mind.

Thank you Tina. That is so enouraging to hear. I do love blogging - such an outlet for me. As I blog I am aware of the simple, the beautiful. My life is so ordinary. But I wouldn't change it. Blogging/journaling allows me to see the beauty in the simple. It brings joy to share (with no one in particular) the little goings on of our days.
I am so grateful for your encouragement.

I looked into this and I can't seem to find any way to do this with blogger (I can't figure out how to import such a list either).
Since it's simply written up in a post format, I would probably be able to turn it into a post here without too much trouble.
I think it would be very easy to cut and paste into a text block on any blog out there - of course, I'm not the most computer savvy person so I could be wrong.

It must be the spring weather but I've moved blogs (and changed names).
I just (this minute! ) stopped posting at Among Women and will now be blogging at Between Daydreams (which should now be in my signature too). My space was almost full at blogspirit anyway.

I'm right behind Amy. I've moved over to Blogger too. But I haven't changed names.
From now on, I'll be posting at
The Journey of a Mother's Heart
It's humbling for me to write this less than a month after my last blog move. Wordpress was just not a good fit for me, and I should have tested it a bit more before announcing the change. I really like Blogger though and plan to stay there for good.

I'm hosting a Carnival of Washing Lines on my weblog, Simple Gifts the first week of June. I was inspired by a beautiful article and photograph by Elizabeth, when she put Karoline's dipes out to dry.
I love a washing line full of clean laundry and I know a lot of you here do too. So please send me a link to your article or photo for inclusion!
