Shucks

Jen from JenX67 is compiling a list of 50 exceptional generation X bloggers - one from each state. I'm not really sure how or why, but she chose me for Utah. Wheeee!

Jen lives in a charming bungalow in Oklahoma, which makes me really jealous because rumor has it that real live cowboys walk the streets of Oklahoma. And you know I've got a thing for cowboys.

Jen writes about everything from books, amazing garage sale finds (prepare to be jealous), trying to find long lost friends and her quest for great blogs. She writes with a poetic rawness that especially touches me when she speaks of her ill father.  

Finding great blogs is a tedious task. Thanks for doing the dirty work, Jen!

Erm......for some reason I am 8 years younger on the Internet than I am in Real Life.

Hi Sarah,

I am popping over to say hello and to check out your fun blog! I saw that you were part of Jen's list! She is a wonderful blogger, isn't she? I look forward to reading your blog!

Hugs,
Debbie(Four Angels Momma)

First: Why I chose SoulMoxie
1) The post about moving from cowboys to ski bums.
2)That ruffly white dress with the blue sash thingy. (The amazing wedding photos, really.)
3) The solid writing, absence of highly annoying plethora of ads and, finally
4) The self effacing humor.

Having said that, I took Idaho off and moved the professional blogger, Massachusetts, down to Other Favorites. So, those states are open. It is tedious. There is so much junk in cyberspace. Unbelievably, I can't find one decent blog in Appalachia or on an Indian Reservation. The world forgetting by the world forgotten...oh, and as I told Mamamlicious of Pennsylvania - your Ms. Utah crown is in the mail. LOL
