Stop reading this RIGHT NOW!

Go immediately to Confessions of a Pioneer Woman.

But come back after you’ve read every entry in the archives, focusing particularly on the 30 chapters of Black Heels to Tractor Wheels. Ok, maybe not every entry...I’ll never see any of you again. But her blog is THAT GOOD - she’s even won a Bloggie for best-kept-secret weblog, and she’s nominated again this year, for best writing.

After a few hours of digging-picking-tossing-repeating yesterday, the weather went down the toilet and I was forced to come indoors and read the aforementioned blog for hours. But then my butt got sore from sitting at my desk for so long and the herd was braying-whinnying-whining for their supper, so I had to stop at January 2007. I’m looking forward to catching up on the next 365 plus entries - she doesn’t miss a day.

The blogger was a city girl who now lives on a ranch in the middle of nowhere. Sound familiar? The similarities stop there, though, as she has a husband and four kids, poor thing. Seems like the whole universe knew about her site except me, judging from the regular number of comments to her posts. I happened upon it thanks to Kristi at Team Donk. She listed my blog on her website as one of her favorites, along with Pioneer Woman’s. Being the nosy buttinski I am, I wandered on over there and my life hasn’t been the same since.
