I’m here! I swear!

Heather harassed me on Facebook… asked me to come back to the internet.

Since I like her so much, I’m posting this here blog post.

I know, I’ve been away. I’ve all but abandoned you. You know what? It has been eating me alive.

I know my weakness.

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love the internet. I love connecting. I love having conversations. I love sharing blogs and photos. I love promoting other people and myself. I just plain love it and think it’s an incredible tool and a luxury, too.

Thank goodness for Renee.

Every November for the past few years, I have made it a point to post one thing I’m thankful for every (okay, almost every) day. First, it was Facebook posts, then last year I turned it into blog posts. It has been good for me, particularly in the month that begins the holiday season, to make it a point to find one thing I’m thankful for each day.

You rule. (Yeah, you.)

I have never been a part of such a unique job interview process as the one for Verity Mom has been. It has been so well organized, thought out, and executed. Everything about it screams professional, fun, and unique… I love it.

Lindsay is a dork who needs help.

For reals, I am 100% dork-ified and I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s why I put myself out there, why I keep applying for these blogging jobs, and keep enjoying making a goof of myself on camera.

No one luckier…

I cannot believe the incredible fortune I have been granted in these past several years. On a whim, I started a blog after my now 5-year-old was born. Turned out, people liked reading it, so I kept writing. I joined a forum for writers like me. I made a few bucks when I began writing content articles. I won a few contests. I became published in several books. Crazy. Awesome. Wow.

The day I decided to drive 27 hrs with my kids.

It was a text conversation between my mom and me that broke the camel’s back. I was having the worst week I had yet experienced as a parent. We had all caught some yucky bug. We had been trapped in the house. Even when we were on the mend, it seemed to be getting worse. Monday night, I was up every other hour between Lily wetting the bed, Wyatt screaming bloody murder, and Lily screaming. I suspected ear infections.

On Vacation!

Hi friends!

I have quite the story to tell you… it involves a totally spontaneous road trip with my four kiddos. Lots of shenanigans, lots of fun.

But, it’s going to wait for a bit. The kids and I needed a change of scenery and a vacation, so I’m going to be MIA for the next week or so to spend some good, quality time with my tikes and my mom.

Meeting That Biggest Loser Dude & Inspiring Stuff

What would you say, if you had a chance to meet Patrick House, the most recent winner of The Biggest Loser?

Probably something a lot less lame and awkward than what I said.

The nail polish doesn’t make the man…

Ack! Almost a week with no post?! Sadly, my blog isn’t the only thing that’s been neglected. Mount Foldmore has reached record-breaking proportions and I’m pretty sure the crockpot I used to make dinner on Monday is still dirty in the sink.
