Today’s task on the Blogging 201 course is to find a blogging buddy and If appropriate, plan to publish guest posts on one another’s blogs. The other suggestion if there are no buddies out there is to lean on them for feedback and support.

So here’s the thing, over the last week or so, I have met so many bloggers as part of this course, that I would consider everyone that has liked, followed or given me encouragement as a buddy in some way, whether it was the feedback on the site navigation changes that I made on Day 5 or the feedback about the blog’s design and the way I write.

Not one to pass up on the opportunity to find a blogging buddy, I came across Chow Kim Wan’s site from the Commons which mentioned about posts on music. Well, looking at the site, it’s so original, a mathematician who also enjoys music.

Could this be serendipity?  or just a wild coincidence. My husband is by all accounts something of a numbers person, having graduated with a science and engieering degree and worked in the Aeronautical industry and though we are so different in our tastes and preferences, we make  an unlikely combination that somehow just works.

So I thought about what I could write that would compliment both our blogs, perhaps it will be about an event from my days at school.

An event that I think is best put behind me, and yet was something I consider one of those transformational moments which can be called character forming.   It was both terrifying and exhilirating, but at the time I just wanted to get it over with.

I’ll be thinking about how best to approach this so that it can be published on a Wednesday to coincide with the Chow Kim Wan’s blog post publishing calendar.

Returning to the buddies and the bloggers that I’ve blog met over this course; I went blog surfing agin tonight, reading through my reader, comments and took a visit to the Commons.

Ravishing Roses has an excellent post on the Make your own Face Mask which she received as a gift – looks amazing to try and to create a home made facemask. Wait a minute, I have some Rosewater, which I can use – hmmm and some lavender honey as well.

The Planted Vegan has a new receipe for a wrap which will make a very tasty lunch this weekend (Our dishwasher broke today) so the fact that the receipe is for a wrap, means there’s little washing up, means I like this post very much.

Lela at inthenewhouse dropped me a lovely comment about visiting her Inspirational Thursday party, which reminds me, I will need to contribute to the Link Party tonight.

Saw the post on the new Erktop couch that Creative Gem has, which has got me thinking that perhaps I should save up for one too. Except it will have to come after the Dishwasher now that it’s broken.

Girl Independent has made so many improvements to her site, I especially like the way she has included text over the images, but in a way that doesn’t detract from the visual power of her photography.

I’ve been reading through  Cyn Franks blog Franklywrite which if you are ever stuck and think you have writer’s block is the post to read to get you back in the saddle again so to speak.

Finally, LeZoeMusings whose blog popped up as on my recommended blogs in the reader is so visually stunning. I think her blog raises the bar for beautiful, stylish and paired back simplicity. It has both style and subtance. Just in awe of her blog

There’s been so many other bloggers who have inspired new ideas and a fresh perspective over the course of the last 9 days, so another task that I’ll have to work on is to create a blog roll and post it on my site.

Thanks for viewing this post. Looking forward to the final day of Blogging 201.
