could I ask you a favor please?

This favor is for two reasons.... the first, I checked my sitemeter for the first time in forever and noticed some new places. I'm always curious who is reading. Even if you just read every now and again (although why would you want to miss out on any of my earth shattering revelations?!) I'm curious who's out there.

(Though don't feel like you have to tell me where you actually are, I know how some of us keep where we are on the downlow and since I do I can certainly appreciate that.)

The second, I really need to update my blogroll and I enjoy finding new blogs to read and follow. Hmmm... is that two reasons in a reason? Oh well.

The favor? If you're reading, please leave a comment so I can see who you are, update my blogroll, and then return the favor by reading your blog.

    I read your blog (normally in Google Reader if you're curious). Pretty sure you already knew that though.
    BTW, my son LOVES the Alpha, Bravo, Charlie book. I might have hid it to give myself 24 hours with out it.

    I love reading your blog (in Google Reader). I've been an Air Force wife for 24+ years, he's recently retired. We live in Spokane, WA where I am a substitute teacher and he is going to college to become a teacher. (Hopefully we'll have full time jobs within two years!) We have two kids, ages 23 and 22, both military "brats". I can so relate to your blogs. Esp the grocery shopping one today! And that's a little bit about us. Have a fantastic day and keep up the great blog! Thanks for sharing your military life with me -- and I can know how to pray for the little things in your life, too!

    hi! i'm in army rotc and my boyfriend is in the usmc. so while bumbling around military blogs (i'm curious about the spouse side of things, especially given my potential future as one!), i stumbled upon yours and enjoy your writing and learning about all of the ridiculous kid-related incidents in your life:)

    i'm also studying abroad in amman, jordan right now, so don't be alarmed if the middle east pops up on your sitemeter. it's just little old me, not a creepy terrorist or anything. ha:)
