Personal Blogging, Privacy & Keeping It Real.

January 12, 2010

As many of you know, my step-daughter moved to far-far-far-awayland and we wait impatiently to see her over Christmas and Summer break. She’s 14 and teetering on the edge of young adulthood. She is wonderful. Want to see us all? Good.
Sometimes it takes three pictures to tell a story.

Through the years, you have seen little [...]

Remembering 2009 with a happy heart…

January 1, 2010

I often talk of my love affair with the Internet. It is a magical portal that throws doors of opportunity open that were once closed. The Internet connects people who so often would never have a chance to meet or get to know each other. The things that so often keep us apart, be they [...]

A Day in my Life…

December 20, 2009

I last minute Christmas shopped yesterday and decided to have a little fun snapping pictures as I went along. I found things I loved (Vinyl Wall Lettering was 50% off. Holla!) and so much that scared me. Oh No, Snuggies for kids! I even shared what it is like to arrive home to the chaos [...]

Business Trip with a Side of Fun.

December 18, 2009

One of the best things about working in Social Media is the community of women who both work together and have built strong friendships.
We are all unique. We bring different stories, experiences and philosophies to our work. However, the longer I work in this field and get the chance to collaborate with such smart women; [...]

Vive Le Velveteen

December 16, 2009

I have this best friend. She’s all thoughtful, poetic and naturally beautiful- inside and out.  She is the yin to my yang. Her gift of injecting magic into the written word is amazing. When she grabs the mic at events the crowd is mesmerized.  She is the only one I would let call me in [...]

Ask the Internet- Christmas Card Edition

December 14, 2009

At the risk of opening myself up to public ridicule, I am about to bravely tackle a touchy subject. A hot-button issue so loaded with emotion and passionate beliefs that we may see friendships end and lawsuits filed by the time this post is off my front page.
Ok, not really, but that was kind of [...]

December 7, 2009

I can’t help myself. I love making these stories. My apologies to anyone who is now wearing a beard, reindeer nose or Santa hat.
My cousin and I take our kids to see the Christmas decorations at Opryland every year. You know that Opryland where we are hosting BlissDom? (swoon)
Enjoy!

Sharpies, Sock Drama and a Gift for You!

December 3, 2009

I have a confession to make. I have issues. I have sock issues. The boys, when they wear them, leave them hidden all over the house. When I find dirty socks under the couch, behind toy boxes or in the driveway; the response is always the same.  “I didn’t do it!” they say in unison. [...]

My Christmas Cards- Keeping it real….real messy.

December 1, 2009

Three years ago I gave up on the ‘perfect Christmas card picture’. You know the one where everyone is smiling and happy? Yeah, not so much.  We just have way too many kids to get everyone to smile.  I used to make my step-daughter a nervous wreck and at least one of my sons cry [...]

Capturing the Moment

November 25, 2009

One of my favorite things about personal blogging is the reminder to capture the little moments.
Between unpacking eleventy billion boxes, making BlissDom calls and returning some of the oh-I’ll-never-get-through-it-all email backup; I stopped and watched him playing happily on the kitchen floor.
“Do you want to go play cars on the carpet? Want Mommy to play [...]
