What are you guys tearing up about? All I see is a white space! :)

I only see white space too.

I did read your rant though and I agree. SITs does allow women (an men) to have a place to showcase their talents, be it crafting, writing, bitching, etc! It is all very entertaining to me.

If people are using blogs as "slam books", then they should really go back to 6th grade.

I started my blog as a place to share pictures with family that was far away. Nobody ever left comments. Once I joined SITs, my blog grew in different directions and I find it really fun to share the things I've made or things my kids did, etc. Who knew?

Your titles says it right on. I almost teared up but I think I have to replenish my tear ducts. I am all cried out. The author of 90 Minutes in Heaven spoke in my church today......you can imagine. He was dead for 90 minutes after being struck with a tractor trailer 20 years ago.

My Big News and a $100.

Image
It just dawned on me that I have had some super exciting news that I haven't officially shared!

You all know how I feel about the importance of optimism and resiliencyin the successes I've had in my life and how important it is to pass those on to my son.

Did you know my company is named "Bright Future Managment"? Doesn't get more optimistic than that!

A few months ago, I was contacted by a PR firm representing Pepperidge Farm.

They were interested in interviewing me for a faculty position for Fishful Thinking, an initiative that offers parents tools for fostering optimism in kids.

Now, as the director of one of LA's largest and oldest private summer camps, I get contacted to participate in all kinds of things for kids... usually, I pass, as I want to spend all my free time with my boys.

But in this case, the message and the presentation was so incredible, I jumped at the chance and agreed to the interview.

Within the first 5 minutes of the interview I was out of…

How Twitter Killed My Blog

Image
So, you may have noticed.

It's been pretty much *crickets* over here.

I was looking back over my blog and realized something.

The waning of my interest in blogging coincides with something.

My introduction to Twitter.

Yep.

I am a full blown Twitter lover.

It's so quick.

So easy.

So engaging.

It used to be that I would think of something I wanted to share with you guys.

I'd write a blog post.

Now, I just tweet it.

I guess some could argue that a tweet is not as fulfilling as a blog post.

But it does offer something I love.

Instant Gratification.

Instant Conversation.

With the blog, I have to write the post, wait for you to come on over, read, decide to leave a comment.

Then, if I want to return the comment, I have to head on over to your place and read your entire post and comment.

Over on twitter, we are chatting right away.

And if you think of @ replies like comments, well, then, I am getting my feign satisfied.

Plus, while over 400 of you follow this blog, over 4,500 of you follow my tweet…

OB...No, not another tampon post.

I 'd like to start by proclaiming that I am in madly in love with my husband. In no way does this moment of "gyno-attraction" diminish his hotness and my love for said hotness.
Having said that, let's begin.
So I feel pretty safe in saying my OB is hotter than your OB.
Okay, make that "was", because when we left LA for St. George, I had to leave his glorious, silver, stirrups. But he is worth a post. Trust me on this .
Let's start with our first (and only) encounter. It was my 6 week follow up after having The Boy. My regular OB was out of town, so they assigned me to Dr. McHottie.
I walked into the room with no idea of what was to come. I got undressed (from the waist down of course) and stuck my feet in the stirrups. Then he walked in. A cross between Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum. In scrubs. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. I got all kinds of flustered and the conversation went something like this.
McHottie: "Hello Mrs. R." (Cleverly reminding…
