Day 30-NaBloPoMo! I hardly thought I'd be able to post everyday for a month, but I did. If you read along everyday without deleting--thanks! Actually blogging has been the easiest thing lately. What's been hard is getting a good night's sleep with this big belly, keeping this house clean--it is quite literally a mess and making a good home-cooked meal (Rhyan and I have had lunch out everyday this week). I did manage to put a dent in the laundry (pat myself on the back!)
On another note, a a while back a friend sent me this parent's prayer calendar. I really do dig it. Now, a mother's prayer calendar for ME, would be great right about now!
Jules over at Everyday Mommy has started a Treasure Hunt for you big blog readers out there. If you come across a beautifully written post out there in blogosphere--then please nominate it. Details are here. There are so many great writers out there with such great life stories. This is definitely going to be a fun one! Nominations open up on February 1, 2007 with voting starting February 7, 2007.
I just got back in town to discover that it's National De-Lurking Week. For those of you (like my mom-a faithful reader by the way!!) who don't know what that means. It's when you read in on people's blogs without introducing yourself. I've been notorious for that. So today I commented my heart out and de-lurked at all my favorite spots. Felt Good!! I've often said that performers have the greatest jobs because they get applause at the end of the day. WOW! I'd love to get applause once the magazine I edit is dropped. Hooray. Or applause for bathing Rhyan. Not that I'm looking for it. But wouldn't that be just awesome? I once told my husband that he deserves applause when he comes in from a long day's work. Perhaps Rhyan and I should stand by the door tonight and clap our heads off! He'd LOVE that!!! Today I saw my de-lurking as an applause of sorts. Letting folks out there know I dig what they are doing. Any lurkers out there? I'd love to hear from you!
So.......I was feeling very uninspired with the lackluster design of this blog. Searches for a blog designer turned up NOTHING. Until this week when I stumbled across Everyday Mommy's site. My prayers were answered. What a gem that Jules is. I'm digging my new design big time! And an added bonus. She's a God-fearing mommy! Can't beat that. Be sure to check out her site.
The big news in our household......Rhyan will be three years old tomorrow. He's very excited. We are planning a party in his classroom tomorrow and one on Saturday for family and friends. The invitations are sent. And the goodie bags are done. Let's just pray for Zero meltdowns.
