Air Your Archives -- Blog Gems #13


The theme for this week's Blog Gems is Mother (evidently it's Mother's Day in other parts of the world!) and I've chosen a post from a couple of years ago, when my son Oliver's birthday fell on Mother's Day.

Blog Gems #12 and Balance



The King and Eye has started another Blog Gems linky, where participants post something from their blog archives. Today's theme is Favorite Posts, those posts that we might love or that got a lot of unexpected attention. I immediately thought of Balance, a post that I wrote back in May of 2009 when barely anyone read my blog and before I met so many of the incredible bloggers that form my community now. The weird attention it got back then came from a journal in Spain, of all places, where they reprinted it in Spanish. I think it captures what a typical day in our household might look like -- in my usual dark-humored way.

Please visit the post and leave a comment there or here or anywhere or nowhere.

Here's to a balanced Sunday to all of you!

Blog Gems - Air Your Archives #10

The King and EYE is hosting another fun linky -- Blog Gems -- where those who participate air out an older blog post, look for new readers, re-live something that they've posted of old and get a few new comments. This week's theme is anything Happy, Heart-warming or Funny -- something to warm our host's heart as she sits in the hospital with her little one. You can join the linky by going HERE.

And you can read my happy post HERE.

Blog Gems #7


The King and Eye is hosting another Blog Gems -- a grand unearthing from one's blog archives. Today's topic is a post that describes an event in one's life. As I trolled through the more than one thousand entries of my blog, looking for something, anything!, that wasn't related to seizures or trips for my job or the antics of my children or just my endless boring thoughts, I came upon this entry from a couple of years ago that describes several events of my life.

Blog Gems - Air Your Archives

The National Archives Building

Over at the hilarious Big Daddy, I learned about Blog Gems where you join a group of blog hoppers and provide the link to a post that you might have written so long ago that no one even read it. Or maybe you just want some more comments -- that's actually the prompt for this week's Blog Gems. Anyway, I thought it would be fun to do it for a bit, since as I slog through writing into the thousands of posts, I realize that I haven't really written anything of late like I used to do.

Go on over HERE and read something I wrote a few years back. Sadly and perhaps absurdly, life hasn't changed too much since I wrote that, but it still makes me laugh. I hope you'll laugh, too.

And if you're so inclined, you can join Blog Gems, because Jen from The King and Eye posts interesting prompts every couple of weeks or so. Read more here.

I'd love to read anything you might want to air out --
