1. What is the name of your blog? How long have you been blogging?

My blog is Ramblings of a Marine Wife. I've been blogging for almost 3 years. 3 years on March 24 to be exact.

2. Why do you blog?

It started as a way to vent when my husband was getting ready to head to Okinawa for a 2 year unaccompanied (meaning, by himself, no family) tour. I was going to be left stateside with 2 little kids. We ended up going with him (but not until he was already there, another huge headache) and it has just evolved from there. I now love it! I love that my friends use it to find things to do in Okinawa and I love connecting with fellow bloggers.

3. What is the first blog you ever followed?

I don't know the first exactly, but there are a few I know I've been following for a long time.

4. What is your favorite post you wrote in 2012?

My favorite posts tend to be the ones I don't hold back on.  Every once in a while, I can really write a good one and I'm super proud of those.
How To Date a Marine
Who Wants To Go To Brazil?

5. What are your blogging goals for 2013?

I want to blog more about me, more about issues and what I'm thinking instead of just, this is what I did today. I also want to increase my readers. I just started accepting sponsors and I've started buying ads on other blogs, so hopefully this will help!

6. Top 3 blogs to follow?

I can never pick just 3. I follow so many. These are just the ones that pop in my head at the moment.
