I know, you're probably tired of hearing about this (especially, if you've come here for your weekly dose of "DUH!" and witness just how I, you know, make other mothers look good) but, in light of recent events (having been messed with, recently and then making nice, nice) I feel it a moral imperative to speak out and prove, once again, that I have been named the unlikely poster child for good/bad blogger relations and, inadvertently, am setting a bad example, in a good way.
In other words, I feel like a total schmuck…AGAIN!
I love my blog and, although some people would say it is a waste of energy or feel that, surely (as a mother of 4 children) I could think of better ways to spend my time, it is one of the very few things I can call my own.
It is only here, that I can actually hear myself think.
I've learned many great things reading other people's blogs (way more smarter, than me) but, one of the things that I enjoy most about blogging is being able to help others feel better.
About what?
Being a mother. A wife. A sister. A sister-in-law. A daughter. A daughter-in-law. An aunt. A godmother. A cousin. A friend. A blogger.
Because, among other things, I am all of those and have managed to screw that up, more often than not, too.
Especially as a blogger, where I've cornered the market on helping people to not only acknowledge, but embrace their imperfections and, hopefully, we ALL can learn from MY mistakes.
Yes, but it's "only a mommy blog"…right…and I do giveaways on my product review blog, a lot, I mean, how does that keep in with "my blog mission in life" and where do I draw the line?
Right now.
