Maybe you know that I sometimes blog for pay. I am a “disabled” mom with four kids– you better believe I’m going to blog for pay! I try to make the posts I write as interesting as possible, and I also try not to have too many obvious “paid” posts. This week has been a pretty good week (I count my weeks from Friday to Friday). I just wanted to say that I may have a few more paid posts hanging around, but I am trying to sprinkle them with some entertaining writing. And believe me when I say I am not going to turn this blog into a splog or a blog I use only for making money! I love to write, to muse, to share. I also love it that I am making some extra income. I do blog about things that interest me, paid or not paid. Just thought I’d say.
P.S. I haven’t forgotten about blogging more about my homeschooling exploits. I want to get a photo of my desk, and I just haven’t had time enough to tidy it up yet, for the photoshoot. But I haven’t forgotten!


I’m a married mom with 4 kids. We live in Upstate New York in an old 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, USAToday, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
