"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

Shout Out Sunday: Uppercase Woman


Shout Out Sunday is a fairly new meme started by Melissa over at Full Circle (and I found it thanks to Lori at Weebles Wobblog). The purpose of Shout Out Sunday is to
Choose a blog that has moved you. A daily must read. One you stalk. One that makes you laugh, cry or scream at the monitor. A new one you would like to give exposure to. Someone you would like to introduce to your readers and send a warm fuzzy while you're at it.
My Shout Out this week goes to Cecily over at Uppercase Woman. If you haven't read Cecily's blog, you don't know what you are missing. I've had the privilege of reading Cecily's blog almost from the beginning and I'm so glad I have. Cecily is smart, funny, and just a little bit (maybe a lot) snarky. Cecily is a hell of a mom and she is a true survivor of both infertility and substance abuse. Even when you don't agree with Cecily, she always makes you think. So go, read Cecily's blog, and maybe even add her to your reader. You won't be sorry.

Shout Out Sunday: My Darling Thugette


Shout Out Sunday is a week old meme started by Melissa over at Full Circle (and I found it thanks to Lori at Weebles Wobblog). The purpose of Shout Out Sunday is to
Choose a blog that has moved you. A daily must read. One you stalk. One that makes you laugh, cry or scream at the monitor. A new one you would like to give exposure to. Someone you would like to introduce to your readers and send a warm fuzzy while you're at it.
I want to introduce all of you to my sister by another mister, my darling thugette, Kym of I'm a Smart One. Kym is a phenomenal mom, a brilliant blogger, and is married to a sexy hunk of a man who bakes BIG ONES. I know some of my readers have found Kym because she is quite a presence in the Adoption, Loss, and Infertility community but, if you haven't found her, get your ass over there. You don't know what you are missing.

Kym is an amazing woman. She went through infertility herself. However, instead of heaving a sigh of relief when she and Frank finished building their family, she decided to crawl back into the trenches and help people out as a surrogate. As if raising their fabulous five alongside Frank and helping others build their family wasn't enough, this wonder woman is a kick ass teacher and a talented writer. When you visit her blog, you never know what you'll get. It might make you laugh. It might make you cry. It might make you think. Whatever it is, it will be worth reading. If she isn't on your blogroll, add her now! Come on folks, click on this little link I'm a Smart One and bookmark it!

Shout Out Sunday: Awesomeness Personified


Shout Out Sunday is a brand new meme started by Melissa over at Full Circle (and I found it thanks to Lori at Weebles Wobblog). The purpose of Shout Out Sunday is to
Choose a blog that has moved you. A daily must read. One you stalk. One that makes you laugh, cry or scream at the monitor. A new one you would like to give exposure to. Someone you would like to introduce to your readers and send a warm fuzzy while you're at it.
I want to introduce y'all to Rolling Around In My Head written by the brilliant Dave Hingsburger. Dave is a recent inductee into The Canadian Disability Hall of Fame and an incredible writer. I first found Dave's blog a few months ago through ICLW and he immediately got added to my blogroll. His blog has never failed to make an impression on me. Sometimes it makes me laugh, a few times it has made me cry, and it always, always makes me think. Do yourself a favor and go by and check it out.

Do yourself an additional favor and check out the kick off of Shout Out Sunday at Full Circle.
