Drowsey Monkey

by JHSEsq

Not every­thing goes as we expect. Espe­cially when it comes to exes or peo­ple that come and flash by us in this jour­ney we call “life”. Drowsey Mon­key is both the name of the blog and its author. Yes, we are guess­ing she has another name as well. But who on the inter­net doesn’t? The […]

Slingshot Thought

by JHSEsq

Today The Ris­ing Blog­ger fea­tures a rather light post that has your basic ingre­di­ents for suc­cess: It is well writ­ten, it is a good story and it has a point. You may not real­ize how many posts that are sub­mit­ted to us that you can­not say that about. And unlike some of other award type […]

Motherhood is Not for Wimps

by JHSEsq

Da Momma is our hero­ine in the blog Moth­er­hood is Not for Wimps. She decribes her sit­u­a­tion, “In Sep­tem­ber, 2002 I became a mother. It must have been the drugs, because I for­got myself and three years later did it all again. Fol­low along as I illus­trate time and again that moth­er­hood is not for […]

It’s Not All Mary Poppins

by JHSEsq

Mary P is the clever han­dle the author of the blog It’s Not All Mary Pop­pins uses to describe her life as a a child­care provider.

Coffee Rhetoric

by JHSEsq

Lori Hahn inspired us. Her TRB review on Thurs­day came from a search for a local blog. She found a great post from her area. We thought we’d see if we could do the same around our part of the planet and found a site called Con­necti­cut Web­sites. We were impressed by the site called […]

Nannie Goats in Panties

by JHSEsq

I sit at my lit­tle desk, in my lit­tle office, in the biggest lit­tle city in the coun­try – Sacra­mento, not find­ing much new here in the day-to-day. Things move kind of slow here – like impor­tant leg­is­la­tion, unless it’s that crazy, wacky leg­is­la­tion we seem to have a pen­chant for that will never see […]

Smile! Tomorrow Could Be a Lot Worse!!

by JHSEsq

One of the great things about review­ing for The Ris­ing Blog­ger is the oppor­tu­nity to either dis­cover or read nom­i­nated blogs that we might not ordi­nar­ily stum­ble across. Today’s nom­i­nee is a per­fect exam­ple. A pre­vi­ous win­ner nom­i­nated the post in an email to Judd Corizan. And to be totally hon­est the post took us […]

Sameera’s Haven

by JHSEsq

Some­times it is all in the fine print. Sameera reveals her­self as a writer and as a per­son in her blog’s header. The blog is Sameera’s Haven. The fine print is too small to read here. Yet in the fine print is the essence of this young woman as an author. And per­haps, as a […]
