Moms On The Internet

October 10, 2013 By momcafe 22 Comments

It has been one exciting week over here!!  First the book Mother Of All Meltdowns came out, and I AM IN IT!!  So are many wonderful friends of mine.  If you are a mom and possibly have had one (or two…or three) meltdowns in your motherhood journey- this book is for YOU!!  We all have shared a slice of our experience in the book, and in doing so we hope to reach hearts and gather together to support one another in this tough amazing job we all love.

THEN…

It was my SITS day!!  I was kinda famous for like 24 hours.  I stayed in my pjs, drank coffee and glued myself to my laptop taking in the sweet smell of popularity and goodness, while ignoring everything else in my life.  I knew it would be over in a instant, so I relished in it and the joy from that day still lingers.  If you don’t know about SITS, and if you are a blogger, I strongly encourage you to check out this fabulous organization that is ALL about helping bloggers connect and grow.  Seriously.  Check it out.

I usually post two times a week… on purpose.  I don’t like flooding people’s lives with too many words and messages.  Two is a good balance for me, and I think for you.  This week was the exception, due to these EXTRAORDINARY circumstances!!  With that said, I actually had a post published over at Mothering From Scratch on my SITS day.  I thought it best not to overwhelm you with ONE more thing to read then, so I am bringing it to you today!

Moms On The Internet

It’s about moms on the internet.  I believe it fits for most if not all of my readers.  What’s your take on it all?  How do you navigate these treacherous waters?  What are some rules you live by, when on the internet?  I share my thoughts on this topic here.

I would love your input!  I want to learn how you manage it all.  Come by and share, would you?  I’ll see you there!

    Love that you’re all over the place this week in the very best of ways! Oh and I do a poor job of managing it all. I’ve found that showering less has been helpful. Going to check you out over there now! And congratulations! 🙂

      I am sitting here realizing that if I don’t shower, I can read one or two more blogs before I go. That decision is possibly made EVERY day. 😉 (Stinkin’ up in here…)
