Update to this post - I started a new blog. Got tired of it fast, so I knocked it off. That's where all these comments are coming from. Sorry, folks! :-)
I thought about you this morning. As I was walking out the door, going to work. I wondered if the old Monica was still there, buried under new baby smell and late night feedings and cleaning all those little baby parts every day. I wondered if we would get to know live-baby mama, and I thought about how nice it would be to hear your words, and to read the next chapter. Welcome back.
I so wish I had started blogging when my babies were babies, instead of being all 'I'm never starting a blog, blogs are stupid, blogs are ridiculous narcissistic exercises in exhibitionism and oversharing' (yeah, and I shop at Wal Mart sometimes too. My principles aren't worth shit).
SORRY Guys, I deleted the blog. I started it and it made me feel like shit. I can't explain why; just felt soul-sucking and time-sucking so I followed my gut and decided to knock it off. Sorry to tease ya like that. :0)
