The Closest I’ll Get to Calling Myself a Ninja

Blogging is a labour of love.  I sat down yesterday and figured out how much money I’ve made and what that means for an hourly rate.  I made $0.25/hour last year. It’s safe to say I don’t do this for the money. Most bloggers are in the same boat as me.  We work, work, work [...]

This is the scene I walked into the other day…color me scarred for life.

Monday Mojo – week 5

This week Monday Mojo asks – Tell us your Blog’s story!  What made you start blogging? Why did you decide to open up a slice of cyberspace and put your name on it?  Tell us what your purpose was back then – is it the same today or have you changed focus? Many blogs have [...]

Today Was Not a Good Mommy Day

It started with my daughter walking up to me and spitting a mouthful of milk on my face.  It dripped down my neck, down my shirt. I resisted the urge to rage at her.  I hadn’t even had a cup of coffee yet.  I wanted to yell. ‘WHAT THE FUCK HANNAH!’ Instead I said, “go [...]
