Box O Litter with Clumps & Chicken Breasts

speedy Cat boarding house
"Blogging is a lot like a box of litter with clumps" ...
Speedcat Hollydale

After many years of this posting "things" almost every day, I seem to have learned quite a bit. In fact, when I started I was very much new to even using a computer and ventured out not understanding where or why I was blogging at all. For months my posts were just scribbles in space that nobody found or read. Search engines ignored me, and comments were almost non existent.
Slowly as I met others out there doing the same thing, I found commenting "pals". You know, the classic I comment on your blog ... you comment on mine. This became the new formula. Great system, until you become over-reached and commenting on one hundred plus blogs! Don't get me wrong, I love the communication and reading posts, but sometimes the time it requires is just not in the cards. My blogging bike is now more of an afternoon ride than a Tour de France marathon each week.
The aspect of creating material is also one that I think everyone has toiled with. Honestly, I never really know or plan what will be next. In fact, I simply started typing for this one. Making up crap as I go, to place in my blogging litter box. Soon this will be a buried clump of yadda yadda blah blah blah in the archives. I guess what I have found to be the best part of this blogging litter box is that it is never-ending. You can dig down through layers containing thoughts and memories from months and years past. Sometimes I turd cat toilet crapsimply just retreat back and relive moments in time. There lie some of my happiest moments ... some sad moments ... and even moments of massive life change. Of course, as I sift though the box I also find lots of random craps that still stink as bad as they did when first hatched.

Cat in Hollydale makes the TOP Five

I found a post today that made me smile from ear to ear. This is quite a feat, because my jawbone is very wide. It was a list of TOP Blogs at Debo Hobo's blog. The following is what I found!

Top Five Blogs by Debo Hobo

The Vaguetarian Tea Room-published by Teeni who is a stay at home mom to two cats and a courageous cancer survivor. Teeni has been taking cake decorating classes of late and is the Queen of Meez.
Momma Mia, Mea Culpa-published by Meleah Rebeccah Hawthorne a New Jersey native and single mom. Meleah is looking for mister right and puts out creative post after post. Her blog covers everything under the sun from travel to family and friends.
Speedcat Hollydale-published by um Speedcat Hollydale. Just when you think you’ve figured this guy out he lays some heavy thoughts on ya. His blog is an eclectic mix of, well, everything from music to vintage photos to seriously abstract photo shopping of pichas. Is there a Docktah in the house?
Gran Speaks-Miss Beth is a lover of books and all things worded. She writes about her day regardless if it was crummy or great, blogging for her is a true stress reliever.
Blogger Newbie-is a good blog to check out if you have technical or how to questions regarding blogging. She provides great info minus the “guru” snobbery.

There are so many things I love about blogging. I put "people" as number Doctor Shoal and Speedcat Hollydaleone. I think you can get a sense of "who" the writer really is by reading there content and comments. Debo is sweet, kind, sharing, funny, and has a real talent for video blogging. As someone I respect an admire, being on Debo's list was something really special for an old blogging cat like myself.
