Yesterday I received an invitation to speak at an upcoming meetup. Which happens from time to time. That sounds very fancy doesn't it? I'm fancy like that. Or perhaps people are just looking to fill content and my willingness to talk into a computer from far away is suddenly super useful. For once. Or something. … Continue reading Content Creation: I can do that…

Yesterday was WordCamp Portland 2012. In its 5th iteration, at a much larger venue, and with many more attendees it managed to pull me right back to some of the magic of the first WordCamp Portland. 5 years ago I was just starting to use WordPress and attending and volunteering at an event such as … Continue reading the one with the amazing sense of community…
miss manners should tackle facebook…
When I was younger I thought I'd be living the life of the Jetson family by now. I pictured living in my high (high high high) rise condo with flying cars and a robot maid to do my dishes, laundry and clean the floors. Yeah, even then I knew I'd hate cleaning floors. As a … Continue reading miss manners should tackle facebook…
history of words…
I remember starting this blog in November 2006. I remember the following months. How I learned as much about myself as I learned about others. I was able to reach out and interact with a giant community of people with whom I shared some common trait. People throughout the world sharing their thoughts through words. … Continue reading history of words…
used to
I used to post every day, come rain or shine, good days and bad. There was a time that I was incredibly committed to ensuring that something new was here every day. It wasn't a commitment to you. To the internets. To this blog. It was a commitment to me. To take some time, even … Continue reading used to
back it
In July of last year a dear friend of mine decided to follow her bliss. Her vision. Her desire in life. She decided to set aside so many other parts of her life and focus on a task that she found important to her soul, and also, to the future of on line publishing. Michelle … Continue reading back it
this post is not about the weather
It isn't. I swear. The theme of this post is NOT weather related. But... It would be unethical of me not to let you all know that it is really really really really really really really really really really really really really cold out there. Like when I woke up, it was 19 degrees kind … Continue reading this post is not about the weather
I had something else planned
I had this whole post planned for this morning involving why my blog was called Mommified Me when I first started it 3 years ago this month. The short of it was that I didn't know about mommy blogs and my blog wasn't a mommy blog so that title made no sense which just goes … Continue reading I had something else planned

It's been a while since I spruced up around this place. I was getting a little antsy and I wanted this place to be all shiny and new. I think the blog remodel is my new hair cut and color. Does that make any sense to you? It used to be when I craved a … Continue reading fresh faced and cheeky…
heavy
In the drafts folder of this blog sit so many unfinished posts... Some are heavy and laden with meaning. Sleep, life, love, marriage, friendship, parenting, the years passing by, vegetable gardens. Even one about an email from a friend that suddenly found herself going through something I'd suffered through in the past. There's a post … Continue reading heavy
