Blogs I love - DON'T READ THIS; IT'S BORING!

DON'T READ THIS; IT'S BORING! All in caps with an exclamation point, just in case the title wasn't off putting enough is a blog that's so boring I don't even know how to tell you what it's about. And yet this horribly mundane blog has close to three hundred declared followers; of course we all know this is no real reflection of how many regular readers a blog has and thus there will be several hundred more people who stop by regularly.

Maybe these hundreds of folks are all just as boring themselves but more likely they find the author of this blog to be incredibly entertaining with her quirky (in a good way) sense of humor and plethora of different subjects she lets us all in on. The author of this blog known as "Sluggy" to a wide circle of bloggers not only writes a great deal about her ancestral quests (which I'm utterly fascinated with seeing as I am enthralled with family history), she also takes us all along on her many traveling adventures across the country. She's an unbelievable bargain shopper and if you're in any way interested in learning how get a great deal you must stop by her blog for a visit. She shares her finds and deals AND does pretty regular give-a-ways with some of the great deals she hunts down. She's a top notch saver and from that I find a great deal of inspiration for this frugal, financially responsible path I'm attempting to traverse.

We, her many readers, look forward with gleeful anticipation to the next update on the current journey across country she's embarking upon as if we were right there with her. We love to see the pile of useful stuff she's accumulated for next to no cost. I'm encouraged by the savings updates (even if sometimes a little humiliated by them). The ancestral posts are unbelievably interesting, entertaining, and informative as she regularly shares details as to how she came upon the new find. And she's only related to like 50 of our former presidents and or their wives. Despite how boring this blog is, I'm unable to list with much accuracy all the other interesting things she writes about. But I dare say most of us who read Sluggy's blog quite regularly, feel as though she's a really close friend.

In conclusion DON'T READ THIS; IT'S BORING! is delightfully entertaining, often very informative, and has a really great united group of readers who feel they somewhat belong to a community of Sluggy's fellow slugs.

Stop on by -> DON'T READ THIS; IT'S BORING! It's the most fun boring thing I know of.

In the "Blogs I love" posts this month I'm simply giving a little shout out to blogs that I find myself commenting on most often and that tend to encourage me or make me smile. I'm absolutely not trying to exclude anyone. There's a world of wonderful bloggers out there. I follow many of you and love your blogs too.

  1. As one of those " hundreds of folks are all just as boring themselves but more likely they find the author of this blog to be incredibly entertaining with her quirky (in a good way) sense of humor and plethora of different subjects she lets us all in on",.....*I* can say YOU expressed so well what I have already been thinking out loud myself. I don't usually comment on many blogs but I thank you for writing this.

  2. I have been reading her blog from its beginning. I was always amused that her interesting blog was described by her as "boring." She may use normally boring subjects, but she adds zing to talking about money, the heating unit and her unsmiling children. Well, they smile more now that they left home...LOL. .

    1. Not boring at all! I feel it's somewhat named "boring" like "little" John who is actually enormous is named "little."
