Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

I’m Not That Blogger

June 14, 2012

Nope, I’m just an ordinary woman who is almost 50 and homeschools 5 of her 8 children and plays Suzy Homemaker each and every day by cleaning house and making meals. I do not command an audience of 2,000,000 hits a month. I do not get 500 comments on a post. I do not write books or ebooks that make me money on the side. I don’t even belong in some of these mommy blog circles – so many are much younger than me and only have toddlers and babies. BTDT! I still have kids at home, but my nest is emptying and there aren’t many bloggers like me with different ages and stages while entering your 50’s.

Sometimes I don’t update my blog often because usually some crap is going on like sickness, tornado weather, or hormones (or all 3 at the same time). Sometimes it’s because my life is so incredibly ordinary that I wonder why anyone would want to read about it. And, obviously not many do.

What I do talk about is real though and it is my life and while it may not be perfect or thought provoking or laced with a gazillion pictures, it’s all I know and know how to do. And keeping it simple is best.

I'm glad you don't get two million hits per month. That'd be a sysadmin nightmare for me (also expensive).
Also, I approve your use of the Oxford comma.

Okay, what's the Oxford comma? And - I wouldn't want to get two million hits a month either. Twenty would be good though :-).

When writing multiple objects, items, and such, the Oxford comma is placed before the conjunction.

Hmmm - okay. I think I know where it is but, I don't see the conjunction. Are you sure?

Hey, there's nothing wrong with ordinary!
And I also appreciate the Oxford comma.
