I love this quote… If I didn’t define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people’s fantasies for me and eaten alive. ~Audre Lorde Multi-taksing Stats: Gosh, it’s been years since I’ve done this, but here goes…I posted this whilst grading, tweeting, lounging on the couch thinking about the red velvet waffles I’m [...]
From Publisher’s Lunch Deesha Philyaw and Michael Thomas’s CO-PARENTING 101: Advice from a Formerly Married Couple on Parenting Across Two Households, the first book co-authored by a divorced couple for whom co-parenting is central to their daily lives, providing expert advice, practical tips, and tried-and-true tactics developed from real life co-parenting experiences, to Melissa Kirk at New [...]
So, not that I needed anything else to play with, but…I now have a Tumblr. See/hear/feel it.
Finally! I have launched (hence the post below) my new webinar, “Write Your D*mned Book Proposal Already!” Here are the deets… In Write Your Damned Book Proposal Already!, you can expect 6 weekly group web teleconference calls covering the key components of a successful non-fiction book proposal. The calls will be led by Deesha Philyaw, [...]
Between grading, chapter writing, and last-minute wedding prep, I’m not sure when I’ll update here next. On Sunday, March 28th, just as the sun is setting, TechBoo and I will be somewhere out in the Atlantic Ocean saying, “I do”, to each other and to our four girls. We have written family vows, and, in [...]
I’m fairly certain that I’ve posted a blog entry with this exact title before. Because it’s true. I’ve always been blessed with good friends, even though many times in my life I’ve nevertheless felt alone in the world. After my mom, grandmother, and dad died in 2005, which coincided with the break up of my [...]
Let’s see… Awakened at 1 AM by a noise, sounds like a Mack truck in my furnace room. Call TechBoo to troubleshoot. End up having to cut the power off to the furnace at the circuit breaker. Send text to plumbing/heating/contracting guy. Drag portable heater into girls’ bathroom so that they can get dressed in [...]

I’m leaning towards a bottle of wine and the jelly doughnuts (which, coincidentally, will come from the new kosher Dunkin’ Donuts that recently opened up nearby).

As usual, it’s a multi-tasking fest here in Mamalicious-land. But instead of feeling overwhelmed, I’m feeling good today. It helps that my morning with Mini-Me and BabyGirl was uneventful. They made it to the bus stop (which means I didn’t have to drive!), and they had biscuits for breakfast, which is always a sign of [...]
