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
Love the new site, however, this mommy would appreciate any martini photos to be accompanied with a shirtless male bartender. Gracias.
I’ll see what I can do! 🙂
or shirtless female bartenders…Gracias
I think you’d be outvoted on that one J-Bass. Are you catching up on the blog while Marla’s in labor? Where’s that kid?!?!
you know i use your blog to take notes; i am going to need some savvy techniques soon! 😉
I will buy you your very own spray bottle!
Your pajama comment (or lack thereof) made me laugh tonight and reminded me that it was time to check your blog! Thanks for the entertainment!
