I am counting down the days to my 30th birthday, and I couldn’t be more excited! Truly! As I was brainstorming ways to celebrate here on the blog, I couldn’t help but think that 30 lists of {30} items would be just about perfect for my type-A, list-making self. Join me for the next month as I share the things I’ve learned in the past 30 years and my hopes for the future! See all 30 Days of {30} posts here.
Confession: I’m a little nervous about hitting publish on this post. I read a lot of blogs, and I consider a lot of bloggers my friends. So narrowing down a list to just 30 blogs means I will inevitably leave someone off. If you’re reading this, and we’re friends, and you’re not on the list below, please know it’s not meant as a slight. Chances are I do read your blog faithfully, I promise! But for this list, I narrowed it down to the 30 that resonate most with me at this time in my life.
Reading lots of blogs and adding my favorites to Tumblr & Twitter (and my weekend posts) is truly one of the best parts of my jobs. I know many bloggers give up blog reading as more and more tasks demand their attention, but I love discovering — and sharing — new things, and going through Google Reader is one of my favorite daily tasks!
Here are the 30 blogs that seem to catch my attention and resonate with my life the most often these days:
