WFMW - Print blog posts to read later

I have to share this little secret because I don't remember how I lived without it! I have over 60 blogs that I peek at regularly. Yes, I'm serious. I've mentioned before that I get idea overload from all of the amazing bloggers out there - mom ideas, pre-school ideas, frugal ideas, organizing ideas and decorating ideas. Well, well, well...check out my newest idea.

I like to read magazines at the gym, if I'm not in a mood to just completely zone out and let my brain wander to get all of the pent-up thinking out of my head. One day it occurred to me...I could print some of the longer blog posts that I skim through but wish I had time to read and bring them to the gym! So every week or so, I go through and create a Word document and paste the longer posts to print off in one huge 4-6 page reading for the gym. It is SO efficient and I don't feel like I'm missing out on the great tips and ideas that are out there.

I went through most of my favorite blogs and got caught up this weekend, then went into my Bloglines tonight (whenever my husband sees this up on our computer, he thinks it says, "Blogliness" like it's next to Godliness or something!) and there were 75 new posts. No joke. Since yesterday. I spent about an hour reading the short posts, skimming the long posts to see which ones I wanted to read in detail, then deleting, deleting, deleting. I still ended up with about 20 longer posts that I wanted to truly read, so I just copied, pasted, then printed them all off for my 45 minutes on the elliptical in the morning. I love being efficient!
