Does anyone really know?
Those of you who read this blog know that I haven’t been doing the blog thing very long. So when I found out I had been “tagged for a meme,” I had no idea what that meant. I still don’t really know what I’m doing.
Here is an excerpt from a site called The Daily Meme, which, you know, has a daily meme:
In the context of web logs / ‘blogs / blogging and other kinds of personal web sites it’s some kind of list of questions that you saw somewhere else and you decided to answer the questions. Then someone else sees them and does them and so on and so on.
So, it appears I was tagged by Canvas Grey of The Canvas Grey.
Rules: Go back through your archives and post the links to your five favorite blog posts that you’ve written.
Link One must be about family.
Link Two must be about friends.
Link Three must be about yourself.
Link Four must be about something you love.
Link Five can be anything you choose.Post your five links and then tag five other people. At least two of the people you tag must be newer acquaintances so that you get to know each other better. (Readers: don’t forget to read the archived posts and leave comments.)
Since I’m new and don’t know any better, I’ll play along.
Link One: Our 18 Month Old Can Count to Ten! (Is that normal?)
Link Two: friends, um…I haven’t been blogging that long, remember? I don’t have any posts about friends! But I do have friends. In fact, the friend that introduced me to blogging has a great site that called, Inspired to Action. It’s awesome! Go check it out!
Link Three: Not-So-New Year’s Resolutions
Link Four: For Your Weekend Enjoyment (I love being a mother!)
Link Five: The State of the Union
…
I don’t have that many bloggy friends and I don’t really know how I feel about tagging. If you want to be tagged, consider yourself tagged. If you don’t, then I didn’t tag you, be blessed and move right along. 😉

Honestly it was my first meme too. So we do the best we can and I think you did great. The reason I like this one is that it gives people who are just scanning through blogs a chance to get to know you, your writing, your blog’s personality at a glance. I’m very glad you decided to participate and I loved reading through your memes. Have a great week! Debi

Debi and Jeannie,
Thanks for leaving a comment! I have found blogging to be so enjoyable, But I do wonder sometimes if it really matters. I guess if it matters to me, then it’s worth my time. I’ll be checking in on your blogs. Glad to make new friends!
Blessings!

Okay, I think I understand the meme thing but what is going on with the tag. Does that mean you just go visit the blog that comes up under the tag link?
