One down.
35 more to go.
Birthday parties for children Natalie’s age, that is.
Only 35 more birthday gifts to wrap.
I guess this was as good as any other mom’s attempt to wrap a 4 year old girl’s birthday gift.
And Natalie certainly looks like she’s enjoying herself.
Oh my.
Something tells me there’s a lot of school fundraiser gift wrap and Scotch tape in my future.
It took me much longer than most moms to sign up for MySpace and while everyone and their mama seems to now be moving over to Facebook, I have no interest. Especially now.
Photos of scantily clad women can be shown, but this photo can’t.
Whether you choose to breastfeed is your own personal choice and I’m first to admit I personally never felt comfortable breastfeeding in public so I didn’t; but how can a photo of a woman (completely covered too!) breastfeeding in the comfort of her home be a violation of the Facebook terms of use?
Kristen Chase, of Motherhood Uncensored along with Catherine of Her Bad Mother just launched the League of Maternal Justice and they are hoping to use it to rally as much mom-superpower as they can to fight for justice for moms and everyone who loves them. (And not just on breastfeeding issues. They’re even willing to fight those Wall Street dopes on the subway who don’t give their seat to a pregnant woman!)
I don’t know about you – but someone needs to mominate Kristen and Catherine and if you see something sketchy going down in the mom neighborhood, email them. And for those of you not boob shy, October 10th at 10AM is going to be a massive virtual nurse in.
Spread the word. Post haste. Oh, and if you’ve got one… deactivate that Facebook account in protest
A friend of mine came to town this afternoon and was put up at a rarely cleaned urine smelling half way house “hotel” courtesy of the quality talk show she is appearing on tomorrow. (She’s taping her show this week - next week they are doing a story on serial killers… who will probably find it to be very home like at that hotel property.)
Thankfully while eating at Fred’s last night, her calls were returned and she moved from her “Deluxe Room” at the Hotel Newton where she complained about hair all over her bathroom floor and they responded “What color was it?”
(Exhibit A taken with my camera phone will be posted here in the morning)
to a $700 room at the Doubletree. (Yes, I really said $700 and Doubletree in the same sentence, I don’t understand it either.)

It may be $500 more a night than it should be but at least now she has clean sheets and when I arrive with bagels in the morning her feet will not have fallen off because of hungry critters in the middle of the night.
