How many bloggers can you recognize in this video of “5 Minutes for Mom” at BlogHer?
Janice and I had a fabulous time at BlogHer 08 in San Francisco!
We met so many amazing women and had an endless stream of fascinating conversations.
But we didn’t keep all the fun for ourselves… we hired a video production crew to record our interviews with some of our favorite bloggers and to go party-hopping with [...]

Tackle It Tuesday #112
Hello ladies, I’m still here tackling my depression… or trying to at least.
I’m so bad right now that I noticed that wonderful schedule I shared with you 5 weeks ago was actually making my depression worse because I was not getting things done… and to see that both on paper and in person was [...]

I’m back - and WOW does this place look fantastic!
I have been on an island. With no internet access. During the very week we launched our new look - and added four fabulous new sister sites. It has been rough. Thankfully, my twin sister and co-blogger Susan was still connected and working day and night. (And apparently long nights.)
While life on the island was [...]

Tackle It Tuesday #111
Well ladies, I am doing a bit better this week emotionally… I got to talk with my pastor’s wife on Sunday which helped a lot because she told me she loved me - it seems that was really all I needed to hear. :o) She told me a lot of other things that [...]

Wordless Wednesday - Reading
Sometimes I feel sad that my kids are far apart in age. But one thing I have been so excited about is that Jackson is old enough to read to his little sister!!
Jackson is a bright little guy and can read quite well on his own now. So reading baby books is a breeze for [...]

Tackle It Tuesday #110
This week my tackle is much more felt than seen! I am totally fighting with my depression! I know I am stronger than the past couple times I have fought with it because I am still treading above water, but it’s totally kicking my butt here!!!

Tackle It Tuesday #109
My Tackle this week does not have before and after photos - it is also very emotional for me so please forgive if it sounds like a giant complaint (I do not mean it that way). My house was a blessing from the Lord so many years ago and I am still thankful to [...]

Are you blogging the floods?
Late last night, I finally shut down my computer and curled up with a blanket on my couch. As I ate a bowl of cereal, I turned on CNN, but my appetite quickly faded as I watched stories of the rising flood water and bursting levees in the US.
While watching houses, farms and livelihoods [...]
Tragedy in the Blogosphere
When tragedy hits a family in the blogosphere, bloggers rally and reach out with links, comments, prayers and support. Even when it happens to a blogger whom we haven’t “met” before, it still feels as if it were “one of our own” who is in need. This cyber support is a beautiful blessing that comes [...]
