A-Z PE Challenge Day 9 (I)

This challenge is to post a different blog daily starting with the letter from A to Z.

Today we are celebrating the irresistible letter I!

The Blog dejour is:

itsgoodtobecrazysometimes

This interesting and lively  blog is written by Trina. Her writing serves so many purposes. She writes and provides links to other blogs. In categories so that people can find a list of new blogs to follow.

Trina also is open about her mental illness and is actively making the fact that having a diagnosis is as nonthreatening as possible.  It is refreshing to be able to read about other people with a diagnosis. It is important for people to learn the truth about these mental conditions. Many people are not quite as willing to be open and frank about their own diagnosis.

Trina also has been nominated for many different blogger awards by other bloggers. She has received The Versatile Blogger Award,  Spirit Animal Award, Leibster Award, and A Lovely Blog Award.

Funny posts are also one of the things I enjoy on this blog. Here is an example:

So today I started with getting on with my goals, I went through my spare room and cleaned it up, although being honest, its not used for much so I dusted. Then I started in my son’s room *big sigh*

Emptied out his toy chest, took out the toys I thought he was too old for and the toys that were broken. Put some on some free sites, some in the loft cause you know,it might happen.

Sorted out all his clothes, he needs to stop growing so 2 black bags for the loft, black bag full of rubbish later and I have finished.

This would of probably taken maximum of an hour but my son was “helping”

Enjoy your special letter day today. Trina .  Today is all about you!

This challenge was created by gapawa.

He came up with the A-Z People Edition challenge and it is an awesome idea. If you want to join in the fun, then just join in.There is no set date or month. Just 26 days of your choosing. Here is the link to the instructional blog you can visit

Here is a Quote from his blog explaining his motivation for this fun challenge.

” This is the people edition! So on the first day you find someone who’s screen name starts with A and you check out their blog. The idea is that you read through some of their posts, introduce yourself and give them some feedback. Then, write your post of the day and publish it, describing who the person is and your experience finding and interacting with them, what you thought of their posts. What you came away with. I think it could be fun:)”

A-Z PE Challenge Day 3 (C)

This challenge is to post a different blog daily starting with the letter  A  all the way to  Z.

Today we are celebrating the curvy letter C!

This means we take a trip to the great state of Ohio.ohiostateoldredbrick

Ohio is where we will meet and get to know more about Amanda. The first thing to know is that Amanda has a really wonderful blog called:

Cover2CoverMom

Her blog’s motto is “Escaping the grind of everyday life, one book at a time.

Amanda is a 29 year old who is married to her high school sweetheart and is the mother of two. She stays at home with her children and she stays really busy with sports, fitness, teaching her children, cooking, and chauffeur.
She lists even more jobs in her about me section.

Amanda says:

“To her, books are a way to escape the grind of day to day life.  She loves to get swept away in a book that transports her to another time and place.  Amanda’s reading comfort zones are historical fiction and contemporary fiction, however she is actively trying to branch out and expand her literary horizons”

Amanda also does a variety of book reviews. She writes her reviews in many different genre. When I go to her blog I am always impressed with her viewpoint and her lay out. She makes her reviews look so nice and professional. Her reviews always include the synopsis as well as her own thoughts on the book. She also does ARC reviews.

Amanda is happy to share her weekly wrap up and hauls with her followers. The entire blog is interesting and easy to navigate. She also is willing to do Book Tags and has won several awards for her blog. It is just a creative place to visit.

This would be the perfect time to hop over and meet her. She is quick to respond to comments and to visit my page when I post something new.

Amanda @ Cover2CoverMom this is all about you. Enjoy your special letter day!
