I'm sure that, like me, you have thought - 'oh I should totally put that in a blog post... but I don't have a blog... or I used to have a blog but now my life is dominated by hostage negotiations with my five year old and toxic waste cleanup with the babe"... So, here I am, deciding to finally bite the bullet and put some of this stuff in writing. And lucky you - you've somehow stumbled upon this goldmine. Ha!
This blog will partially serve as mere proof that there are days when I have the energy and the persistence to do more than just make it through the day. Today I made magnets (to be posted soon!)... and breakfast... and lunch. This is impressive in my book. I'm also on my third cup of coffee, but hey the New York Times says more is better and that is surely enough justification for me! For the actual facts, read Gretchen Reynolds' article This Is Your Brain on Coffee.
And because I often find myself looking to other moms for support or guidance or just plain old commiseration, I have decided to share our wild and crazy adventures with you. Hopefully you'll find an idea or two worth using... or a pdf that can save you ten minutes of having to create your own... or simply a story that makes you feel like if I can do this... you sure as heck can too! I also read way too many articles and books... most surrounding the topics of parenting and politics... ok, ok, also coffee! So, I'll share some of that from time to time as well. And feel free to let me know if there are things you'd like to see or hear about... I'll certainly respond to any comments you leave!
