I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your blog. I stumbled upon it from the msnbc.com website and I liked the post that I read so much that I spent a few days reading all of your blogs from the start! You are a very talented blogger and I love how I can totally feel myself in your shoes when I read one of your post. You’re an amazing person. Keep writing and I’ll keep reading! Thanks for something entertaining to read at work.
Hi Maija: I decided to write to women whose blogs I read regularly and who have the WordPress logo on their sites to see how they’ve done it. I am attempting to switch from the free wordpress.com site to self hosted on Liquid Web using wordpress.org framework. I have two questions if you have the time to answer them. Did you smoothly transition from wp.com to .org or did you start out self hosting? With the issue I have had already (unable to transfer all my old .com posts to new platform) I’m losing confidence in my ability to handle a site’ by myself.’ Do you manage the behind-the-scenes WordPress updates of plugins, software and the like yourself or do you employ someone? I’m feeling not so confident about doing so right about now since I can’t seem to resolve my first roadblock. Thank you for your time.
I continue to enjoy your writing.
Hi,
I just wanted to stop by and tell you how encouraging your blog is. I really don’t recall how I came across it, but it is set in my favorites and I stop by often. I am a single mother of 3 and a VP of a company. I often find myself in hotel rooms on business thankful for the quiet, but missing my kids terribly. After a rather stressful 12 hour day, I came home, made dinner, cleaned, consoled my 17 year old who didn’t feel like the ACT score she got is good enough for college and tried to explain to my 10 year old why he can’t use my credit card to but video games from the internet. As I was about to close my computer to continue my night of folding laundry and making lunches I thought of your blog. I just saw the post about 24.5 and the words from your step-mom. Tell Sheila that tonight she inspired me and reminded me of the important things. Thank you for stopping my overwhelming tears and reminding me just how lucky I am.
Hi- just found you via Law Momma. Great blog! Are you by chance Canadian? I noticed references to Coles notes…
I’m from NB. Great to meet you, plan on reading more!
Hi,
I literally have the chills reading your blog, we have a very similar story. I am also an Adult Child of an Alcoholic Mother with two little children, my daughter is 2.5 and my son is 6 weeks old. I know exactly where you are coming from…the stress, the pain, the disappointment. My mom has been sober for almost 3 years after a life of alcoholism yet I still dream about beating her up every night. My mom is also mentally ill but I don’t fear her, what I fear is the disappointment I will inevitably feel when she lets me down yet again. I just wanted you to know you aren’t alone, there are many of us out there and like myself, we will NEVER be the mothers we had growing up. Both of us are too strong and too smart for that. Please contact me if you would ever like to chat, it seems like we would have a tremendous amount to talk about. All My Best to you and your family.
Thank you so much for your wonderful blog. I happened upon Lacey’s story as I myself, ironically enough, was researching on Google about tummy tucks. To say it was not only relieving but also encouraging is an understatement!! Her words were like my thoughts realized on the page in front of me. Both of your blogs are wonderfully written with a fantastic candor and sense of honesty that is a breathe of fresh air!! Please pass on to Lacey my sincerest gratitude and tell her that her words have helped me make the decision to go forward. I am now an avid follower of your blog! Thank you!!!
