Gratitude.

So, my last post was like 425 bojillion years ago.

Spring Break trip was awesome and if I was a good blogger, I'd post fabulous pictures and regale you with witty stories of our travels.

But I'm not, so I won't.

Wondering what to do with this here space.

I talk to lots of you everyday on twitter and see you at Bloggy Boot Camp.

To get myself back into the grove of blogging, I am going to do 30 days of Gratitude.

For them next 30 days, I am going to do my best to post about something I am grateful for.

Thanks for your encouragement and interest.

Day 1: I am grateful for you.

Blogging for Dollars?

My friend, Melissa , recently wrote this post , expressing her frustration with the small circle of bloggers who seem to be getting all the perks. I read it and left a lengthy comment, then realized I had even more to say. So, here it goes. I have been feeling some stress and increasing negativity in bloggyland lately. Unrest among the masses regarding PR, "A List" (whatever that is) Mommy Bloggers, the lack of money in blogging, etc. I've personally considered withdrawing completely and have spoken to a few other bloggers who are also feeling somewhat "disenchanted" with blogging as of late. It seems to have lost its luster. Here is how I see it: You begin blogging for fun. For connections. For camaraderie. You get a few followers and comments. You want more. You begin to see others talking about the free stroller or set of books. You want that too. Then you hear that some are getting to travel, meet with PR firms, speak at conferences. That sounds fun.

My Big News and a $100.

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 resiliency in 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 wa

Facebook Fiasco

So facebook seems like a great idea right? Are you aware it can be used by your enemies? It can. Like the my arch enemy. We will call her "Sue". Sue is one of those people who you seem to always cross paths with. One of those people who has always been, well, jealous of your life. And, in love with your husband. We recently attended a party. She was there. With her camera. And, a sole purpose to take as many bad pictures of me as possible. After calling my name and taking a very close photo of my surprised face, she said, "These are going up on facebook." Then proceeded to snap away at me all night. To the point that my husband even noticed. The pictures of course, ended up all over her facebook page. The worst pictures ever. Like in the midst of laughing with eyes half shut and double chin pictures. She of course tagged me. I untagged. She tagged again. Really? I thought of the perfect revenge. Tonight, and for all the nights after that, I am going to sleep with m
