Oh – I’ve just been having a little too much fun with this blogging thing…my day job is starting to suffer. So I’m taking a “professional health day” from the internet tomorrow. My online activity will be limited to work-related searches only. This will be painful.
But first I want to thank all of the funny Mormons who commented on my last post. My husband said he cringed when he read it. He was very worried that I’d be run out of town on a rail (that’s a saying right?) But he was right when he said that that Mormons are lovely people. Okay – “lovely” is my word, not his, but that’s what he meant.
I’m so glad that I haven’t been shunned by this huge segment of the blogging community at large. In one of the comments, it was noted that I have a number of Mormons in my list of favorite blogs. I noticed that as well, and it was sort of what made me want to write that post. I seem to be a Mormon groupie (or in this context – a Mormon “lurker”). And honestly, it’s a relief to finally be outed.
I will not be up until midnight writing one of my typically long diatribes like this one or this one. The twins have head colds and are taking turns crying and wanting to be rocked. And Oliver has decided that I’m his new favorite security blanket, and won’t let me leave his room at night. Tonight we’re letting him stay up ridiculously late in hopes that he’ll be so exhausted that he’ll just fall asleep and end this recent pattern behavior. And anyone who has ever tried to get a good night’s sleep while sharing a toddler bed with a three year old will understand my sense of desperation.
Wish me luck and see you Thursday.
Hi kate,
I never post and generally only read this when you make me or one of my girlfriends from the office decides to make fun of me for being a slob-thanks honey-by the way. You just took Oliver up to bed and its 11:30 at night. Things have been tough around here since you and Oliver went away. We stepped out of our routine. Then when you guys came back I went away on another business trip the next day and things have been tough ever since. I just wanted to tell you that i think that you are a great mom and the kids are very lucky. I also wanted everybody else to know it.
Chris
Oh good luck. That will be hard. Glad you didn’t get run out of town or state…
You’re HUGE in Virginia too! :)
Wow a day without the internet. I don’t think I could do it. You are very brave.
Even though you won’t get this til Thursday. I have a little surprise for you at my blog, stop by and see.
I hear they start sleeping well around 13. I’m still waiting. Get some rest.
I’m a Non-Mormon in Utah! I just discovered your blog and I love it.
By the way…your husband rocks leaving you such an awesome comment.
You need to pay him some ‘special’ attention I think. (wink, wink)
A day without blogging? That sounds tough. Good luck!
I recently came accross your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I dont know what to say except that I have enjoyed
reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
