Guest Editor Picks 5/2/2008

Wow, to be a Guest Editor! How cool is that?
 
My Name is Angie Peyton, my journal is called: Peytons Water 
 
 
 
I'm a 34 year old small business & mother of 3 wild little boys.  I have been married nearly 12 years in October and live in Dayton Ohio.
 
I find life interesting, like a twist of life, like a leaf blowing in the wind.  My birth mother (Yes, I am adopted) once referred to me like this; A single Red Rose growing in the middle of field of wildflowers, unbeknownst to how it got there, yet thriving and flourishing all the same.
 
I live my life with the full knowledge that tomorrow is a gift, not a guarantee.  I don't wait for happiness to find me, I go get it.  I teach my boys the same.  I enjoy spending times outdoors and taking my boys to new places in the Ohio area.  We are not home much because there is so much to see and do and I enjoy sharing our adventures and triumphs with those in Jland I call friends.
 
As a Guest Editor I have been asked to highlight 5 journals.   For me this was a challenge to find journals that are new to me, and hopefullyare not well known and bombed with a zillion comments.  What a search it was! I have never been awarded a gold star for my attention span, so in order for me to find these was a bigger task then I thought! So without further ado, here we go:
 
Dribble by Chuck Ferris
Chuck is a retired school teacher and wounded WWII Vet. He lives in a retirement and defies age.  I should call him a robot man because he has a wooden leg, glass eye, stints and crowns and artificial hip!  What you will find in his journal is funny to the point postings, what you don't find is whining. He is an inspiration to me and I really enjoy male writers.
 
When Life gives you lemons ~
....make limeade:). She has a 14 year old son and her husband is from Vietnam.  She baby sits at home.  I like that through her entries she is a tell it like it is and someone you probably don't want to be on a bad side, she may just leave you a Duran!
 
Is This My Life? ~ 
I have told Michelle over and over that I think she and I are cut from the same cloth.  She is a single mom of 3 boys and has the humor to make it through days that would have people jumping off cliffs. She is honest, fun to read and tells it like it is. I have read stories of her happening that have had me fall off my chair laughing!
 
It is what it is ~ 
Phil is better known as Thrill Phil or Phil Thrill! Either way I think having a male blogger is a breath of fresh air and I find his entries lighthearted and funny most the time.  If your any Nascar type of fan, this blog is for YOU!
 
Struggling with my Life ~
Christine is someone that is new to me in the world of Journals. However I have enjoyed reading her blog because she seems to really open up in her blog.  She lives in the country and is going through many things in her life right now and could really use some uplifting friends to stop by and say hello, I do hope you will visit!
