HELLOOOOOOO!!!!

It’s crazy how amazingly easy it is to move a blog.  So here I am in my new home.  I’m still trying to decide if I like this theme (design) or if I want to change it, but changing the theme is also very easy so if you hate it, just say so.  I’m not sure I like the giant black letters in the title, but I can’t seem to change that without changing to a different theme so maybe that font will grow on me.

One of the reasons I’ve been wanting to move the blog is because a lot of people had a hard time leaving a comment when my blog was on Blogger.  Only a few people commented so there were lots of times that I felt like I was talking to myself (which is fine since I use this as sort of a family chronicle) but then I’d have people tell me that they woke their kids up by laughing at something I wrote, or that they read the blog with their husband every morning, or that reading my blog makes them feel less like they’re the only crazy person out there.  I actually love hearing that because one of my goals in writing this blog is to bust the myths that everyone’s house is spotless, everyone’s kids are well-behaved, and everyone is living the life of June Cleaver.

Anyway, I know people are reading it because often when I try to tell a friend about something that happened in my life, they stop me and say, “Oh yeah, I read about that on your blog.”  And sometimes I get unsolicited assistance, like the link to sign up for Supernanny that Lana sent me a while back after watching a video of Naughty Norah.

So I know you’re out there, and I want you to be able to comment easily and often.  If I write about how my kid told her teacher that, “Mommy said the f-word at breakfast,” you could leave a comment about your kid ratting you out on something.  Or if I sound like I’m getting too close to the edge (again), you could leave a comment saying, “Meet me at the Met Bar Friday night at 7 for a Blood Orange Cosmo.”  Get my drift?  If you’re reading this, click that little “Leave a Comment” link down below, and tell me that you’re here!

    Faithful reader because a)Your blog totally cracks me up and b) You’ve got enough dirt on the inner-workings of our house that it seems only wise to check here now and again.

      I think the dirt goes both ways. Aliya told me today that when Hannah was here and Ben and I were arguing about something (nothing serious), Hannah asked if we always fought like that. :-0
