Doin’ a little jig- dancin’ a little rag. In the tiny little microcosm of my world, things are very good! The very first site for mamas that I ever found and loved was MMW, and they are still my favorite, so when your fav decides to ask you to join the staff, what do you do? You dance a crazy little dance, swallow your fear of large audiences and say…”ok”!

Heather O and The Wiz have invited me to be a regular contributor to MMW, and I think my first post over there might be on Monday. How cool is that? Little pregnant, nauseated fish in a big ol’ pool. Well, Heather keeps telling me it’s not so big, but it feels pretty stinkin’ big to me! This will still be my main outlet- I can’t hog over there and post all the time about whatever is on my mind, but once a week or so, I will. How cool is that? Four months ago I thought a blog was a big plop of mud!

Also, the kids have been awesome, my husband got a fat promotion at work (the only drawback I see so far is he gets home later), and I got several orders for my designs from new companies this week. Big orders. Which means next week I have to be disciplined and actually stick to a schedule and work. Sticking to a schedule and defeating the whimsy-pig inside of me is always a personal challenge, but one of these is a really big order, going to Manhattan- can you believe that? What one solitary mama makes in her spare bedroom might be going national… Good grief, life is so amazing!

And we are having a maybe-girl. The chicken-little in me is now going start looking for falling pieces of sky…Happy New Year everyone!
