I gotsta' keep on moving...

So yes, the shoemakers children have no shoes

In the past two months, I've written more blog posts than in the past year. But as you see, none of them for this site. A few of the posts I've written have even been front and center on major industry web sites, but of course, those are the ones that I can't really take credit - only a paycheck - for. Pretty much I'm a writing machine these days... alas, none of them are posted here.. on my little shoeless baby blog.

You never write! You never visit! When did my blog turn into a Jewish mother?

But yes, it's true. I don't. 

This working from home with kids running around this is really way more difficult that it looks. It's almost near impossible to write coherent sentences with the theme song from the latest Barbie movie blasting in the background. Have you ever tried to answer emails while dishing out juice boxes and snacks every 10 minutes? Many days I find it even impossible to form multiple sentences that flow together. My ADD becomes very apparent when I'm talking to someone and in the process of telling them a story, I interrupt myself to tell them something else that I just thought of and didn't want to forget to tell them. 

But yes. The Blog. No Shoes. Jewish Mother. Blah.

So yea. 

How've you been?

i completely relate to the whole ansering emails while getting juice boxes dilemma. and i only "work" from home 2x a week. it's impossible, which is why i'm up till 2am catching up. either the night i'm supposed to be working from home, or the night before in order to get a jump start. going to an office is SO much easier! but, makena starts full day preschool next year, so i'll be back to work, and i'm sure complaining about every minute :)

I was excited to see a new post in my reader from you today and I think I could have written the same thing on my blog today... I am spread so thin these days no one is getting my full attention not even my kids. We can contemplate that and alien abductions over a ginormous margarita next month at BBC. Maybe we'll have a grip on things by then.

Not.

Such a great post, darlin. I can hear your voice. I hear you on the busy-ness. Embrace it, go with it, treasure your successes!
