  1. Holy Cow! The fact that you could come up with thirty things is astounding. Maybe I'd blog a little more if I had your amount of creativity. Or maybe I'd just feel more guilty than I do now about not blogging enough.

    I'm going to cut and paste your list of ideas into my "Blog Topics" sticky. Thanks!

  10. Hurry up and post #14. My eight year old is asking lots of questions and I need some help. And speaking of help, #25 would be helpful as well.

    A list of 30 things is writers block??
