How has it already been a week since I last posted?! Grand plans I had! There were so many times this week that I thought, I need to sit down and write about this. And yet.
I’ve just recently signed on with Hallmark as part of their Life is a Special Occasion campaign. I’m really excited because I will now have no excuse to not write here in this space and talk about the little, big, and everything in between events happening ’round these, here parts. I’m also excited because, well, it’s Hallmark!
Continuing with the theme of: Talking About Myself, here’s what I’ve been talking about on my Babble Voices blog, Southern By Proxy…(I’d be so honored if you’d visit me there. Yes, of course I realize that it’s a lot to ask. It’s just that, I miss you, my regular blog readers, and I feel like I’m fumbling around over there trying to find my voice and the type of post that “works.”)
* Carson has nightly homework in Kindergarten-yes, KINDERGARTEN-and I’m just trying to figure out what the point of busy work really is.
* I got grazed by the sleepover bullet and I’m hoping that I don’t get hit with it again any time soon.
* Don’t get your panties in a bunch, but I don’t really think it’s that horrible when someone says to you, “you sure have your hands full!”
And now to the more selfless portion of the program: I want to start a feature on either Thursdays or Fridays…or you know, whenever the mood strikes, to feature great posts I’ve read around the Internets. With the share function gone from Google Reader, I just feel like I never get to tell the world what they should be reading. It was one place I could be totally bossy and get away with it.
Jennie’s posts are always thoughtful and insightful, but I love this post-it’s romantic in a the very best of ways. Eight.
Having devoted a good portion of January to unsubscribing to EVERYTHING in an effort to manage my email better, this post by Marinka had me chuckling out loud (COL).
I love reading birth stories, I think in another life I’d like to be a doula, and I loved Emily’s birth story about her precious fourth baby, Paul Richard.
And that’s all I’ve got for now, folks. Any good news to share?
I’ve been on an unsubscribe spree. Marinka’s is totally good timing!

I’m glad you’re inviting us to Southern by Proxy, because I’ve missed you.
Thank you (always, seriously) for the links and support. You’re one of my favorites and I’m always a little giddy to see my name on your site.
Congrats on the new gig, too!
Jennie´s last [type] ..Thanks, Guys.
Jennifer, I just popped in to say congratulations for all the accolades you are receiving at Babble Voices. I used to read your blog religiously a few years ago before my computer crashed and I lost all my bookmarks. I remember you wrote a post about thinking about quitting blogging b/c you’d met so many other good writers and didn’t know if you fit in. I’m glad you stuck it out…. look at you now!
