I may not be here, but I was there

Friday, May 25th, 2012

My days are filled with errand running, phone calls that need to be made and children that need to be fed and washed and snuggled. I have groceries that need to be bought, meals to cook and dishes to wash. The mountain of laundry has been reduced to a manageable size, although I suspect that’s because the little ones haven’t brought down their laundry baskets yet.

Somehow the week got away from me. I woke up on Monday determined to make a dent in my to-do list, and put my nose to the grindstone. When I looked up, it was already Friday. And I’m pretty sure my to-do list is just as long as it was at the start of the week.

On the off chance that you were horribly disappointed not to hear from me this week, I have good news for you! You can find me other places! Yay!

For Yahoo!Voices, I wrote on my experience with postpartum depression.

On Band Back Together I had two pieces published. I wrote about the guilt I still struggle with over my failure to breastfeed my son.

I also wrote a piece for our “I Am The Face of…” World Tour. I wrote about how I am the Face of Self-Injury, and I likely always will be.

If you’re looking for something a little lighter, you could check out the post I wrote to my mom on Mother’s Day.

I hope all of you here in the States are able to enjoy your holiday weekend…well, I hope the rest of you enjoy your weekend, too!

Slightly Similar Nonsense:

Still here (but also there and there, too!)

Thursday, March 15th, 2012

Hey there, internetz!

I’m still here. And still pregnant. Everyone is getting a little impatient waiting for Baby Why (I’m toying with bloggy names. Don’t mind me…) to make his appearance.  I suppose I should be glad, because I keep putting off things that probably ought to be done to get ready for his arrival.

Not much else is going on. The husband is still working ridiculous hours, and I’m doing a lot of napping.  In between naps, I’m writing the occasional post. Today, I have two up elsewhere on the internetz.

Over at Mushroomprinting.com, I deliver a smack to my younger self. Deserved, I might add. If you could go back in time and smack your younger self upside the back of the head for something, what would it be? Feel free to share here, or there, or hey…why not submit a post to be featured on the site?

And on Band Back Together, I’ve got a post up about our World-Tour topic: Acceptance.  I’d love for you to head over and check it out. And take a second to check out the many other (more) amazing stories that are shared there daily, too.

Dose Of Happy: Chuck E Cheese

Monday, February 20th, 2012

This post is for Band Back Together’s Dose of Happy Monday. Feel free to join in by visiting over there, and sharing your dose of happy either in the link-up or the comments!

Last Sunday, we finally broke down and took the kids to Chuck E Cheese’s. For the first time. On a Sunday afternoon. Because we’re really good planners like that.

But it worked out okay in the end.
