I worked hard this summer. Really very hard. I did not spend any of it on a beach. I’m not proud of that, but at least I was productive. Here are the highlights
- For the entire month of July I hosted a great big birthday party for Blacklisted from the PTA, which was fun and enlightening. And tiring. No one can party that hard for that long.
- Had 15 different essays and articles appear in 24 magazines around the country.
- Attended BlogHer in New York City.
- Contributed to iVillage videos about “having it all,” back-to-school money saving advice, and Sh*t Moms Do When Kids Go Back to School.
- Contributed a slide show of sleep tips from real moms and contributed to another slide show for iVillage. Both were featured with Michelle Obama’s curated content during the First Lady’s week as Guest Editor!
- Tackled spoiled American children, Nipplegate, imaginary Olympic events for moms, a couple of Oklahoma education debacles, and whether or not it’s okay to pay someone to teach your kid to ride a bike for NBC News/TODAY Moms.
- Gave the keynote address at the Arkansas Women Bloggers Unplugged retreat in Mountain View, Arkansas.
