Magic happens today – the crowd of eager participants with computers at the ready began gathering last night for the #FMFPARTY on Twitter.

five minute friday: hide
You know where to find me on Friday mornings! Over at Kate’s, nursing a mug of coffee, and doing a quick assessment of today’s word prompt. I try not to over-think it – I’ve been known to kick a few dead horses in my day – in fact, this morning I saw the word… [Read More]

A bright spot of this gloomy day is gathering with… [Read More]

I’m ready, set, go… I am going to keep it real today. I am confessing to you, my friends, my nemesis. I am a neat person. I do the dishes… [Read More]
five minute friday: joy
Linking up with Lisa-Jo Baker today for five minutes of no-edit writing (I always go back and clean it up though!!!) And, as an aside, Lisa-Jo’s book “Surprised by Motherhood” goes on sale April 4th. I was privileged to preview three chapters of the book and found it to be “not your average Mommy book”…. [Read More]
