Tagged by Gill, thanks 🙂
The official rules for participation in the Thinking Blogger Awards meme are as follows:
1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think
2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme
3. Optional: Proudly display the ‘Thinking Blogger Award’ with a link to the post that you wrote.
Hm, haven’t got the thinking blogger award piccie, might consider that…
Five blogs eh? Used to be that I read up to 40 each day, but since going back to work, I’ve had to cut back a bit. I don’t even have a working laptop atm, so I don’t have sage set up anywhere, meaning that I’ve actually got to remember to visit any sites that aren’t on the ring manually. Here’s a few of the ones that I do 🙂
Jen at thelactivist is great. And it isn’t one track posting by any stretch of the imagination either. Breastfeeding is a topic I’m interested in, but a blog that just went on and on about it probably wouldn’t hold my interest for long, and yet I’m a regular visitor over there. Strongly recommend you drop by.
Ron of Atypical homeschool doesn’t get to post very often these days, what with the commuting he’s been doing, the whole housemoving thing and Andrea’s recent hospital excursions. When he does post, it’s often something he’s been musing on for quite some time, and also worth paying attention to. ( I think he may have been tagged before, but not in a personal way 🙂 )
Tiny bit closer to home, Lucy at By other means is always worth a read. Her posts are measured, information, chatty and often full of beautiful pictures. And she comes to home education and life in a different way to me, which I find great for just stretching my horizons a bit.
And Rosie at Knitting Yogurt is someone I like to come home to. Despite anything and everything going on, she has a calm way at dealing with her life that gives me hope for my own.
I was going to tag Doc from Doc’s Sunrise rants but it turns out she’s already been tagged a bunch of times before. Not surprising, although her blog isn’t a read for the fainthearted. She was one of those who spearheaded the drive against those to whom we must not link. There are also loads of resources posted on there regularly and just commentary on life in general from a very different point of view to mine. I find it refreshing. But I’m not tagging her again, so here’s that Tim suggested I read, that I think he keeps up with more than me.
Our ex MP, Harry Barnes, blogs at three score years and ten and it’s a fascinating read. I have a lot of respect for Harry, I don’t necessarily agree with his politics but I always found him to be a principled and honest representative of his constituents, and there are not many MPs I would refer to in those terms.
Thanks for the tag Gill. If you hadn’t tagged me and someone else had, I would have wanted to tag you 🙂 Hey, and look, I found a couple of not home educators!
