Uhhhhh. I updated my Akismet plugin today, and *poof* it’s gone! Wha?? I did the same to one of my other blogs, and now I can’t “Delete All.” Holy cow, why do I have all these problems?! I’ve heard it may be a bug… *sigh*
So I’m going to have to put blog comments on “moderate.” The last thing I want is for you to be as shocked as I have been at all the lascivious spam I get on this blog!
My apologies in advance. I hope they get Akismet running again.


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.
