At First Glance: Good Lord, there’s way more going on here than my obsessive compulsive need for the highly-organized-and-easy-to-read can handle.

Template/Design: The soft brown shades with complimentary other colors are nice – but that’s where it all turns to WTF? There are pop-ups everywhere, which drive me insane and just makes want to run flailing. I like the large post area though, the cool “friendly” font and the large font size – it's easy to read.


Content: This is a diary. At times deep and depressing and at others light and fruity – you never know what emotion train she’s riding from one day to the next. This lady has a lot of struggles – with her faith, her family and her home. And with about eighteen kids and a really busy life keeping her from any quality “her” time can you blame her? And who apologizes to her readers for her feelings and how she expresses them? I don't get that. She's a true romantic soul (by her book and movie choices) though - she loves love and I'm all over that!

What would I change about this blog? Get rid of all the pop ups and just put links where people can choose to click on them instead of being bullied by those little boxes popping up everywhere. It would also be nice to not get shot down in flames everywhere you click because you're not a member of "Xanga”.

What is the best feature of this blog? The author's profile section. She gives a basic bio up front but if you click on her profile, you get a lot of detailed information about her and her personality. This gives people the chance right then and there to decide if they want to read on or get the fuck out of Dodge.

Rating: 3 - Only because she has great taste in books & movies and she wrote a kick ass post about how much she loves her husband.
