On August 24th, 2009, I wrote the first post on my secret blog. Ten years later, I’m writing this post. Ten years is a decade. Double digits. The decade mark at this job I made up is a great time to consider my past and my future in it. So, I thought I’d share my current perspective with those of you who have been loyal participants in my … [Read more...]
Exciting Stuff Coming Soon!
Ever since I finished the manuscript for my "real" book, I've been pretending it's okay chill out and read fiction whenever I feel like it. And yet life keeps happening. But I have managed to get a few things checked off my never-ending to do list before Christmas! First, I set up a special email list because I will be hosting live video … [Read more...]
Please Tell Me Your Experience with the Container Concept for my Book!
My brain is on overload, but I'm in the zone as the deadline for the book I'm writing approaches so quickly!!! Don't know what I'm talking about? I'm writing a book that will be published by Thomas Nelson (that you'll be able to buy in a bookstore and hold in your hands). I want to bring a little of our Slob Club to that book. I want the … [Read more...]
Six Years (and a day) Later! (And a Very Big Announcement!!)
Oops. I knew my sixth blogiversary was coming up this week since I started the blog on the day this kid went to kindergarten in 2009. I just assumed it wasn't the exact same day. I was wrong. On August 24th, 2009, I wrote the first post on what was supposed to be my secret, anonymous, temporary, practice blog. The state of my house was … [Read more...]
Summer’s Coming!
Summer's coming, and I'm soooo excited! I can't wait to spend all day every day with my kids. But I know it also gets crazy, so I'm doing what I can to be ready. Out of my last Zaycon order of chicken, I baked about fifteen pounds to freeze and have ready for quick and easy suppers this summer. I'm also trying to get things ready for summer … [Read more...]
Accepted
I blog about my deep, dark secret. It's why I'm "Nony" here. Short for aNONYmous, I never, ever planned on putting my face to that name. But a lot has changed over the past almost-four years. My deep, dark secret is now my (full-time-hours/part-time-pay) job. And I've stopped hiding. I still don't immediately volunteer the information … [Read more...]
Two Years Down . . . A Half-Century (or So) to Go
Today is my second blogiversary!!! Meaning . . . two years ago today I wrote the first post on A Slob Comes Clean. No one knew I was writing it. Not even my husband. I had just come up with the blogging-for-accountability-and-focus idea and had to get going. Like when you're standing on a high-dive and know that if you think too long, … [Read more...]
My Savvy Blogging Summit Re-Cap . . . And a Few Plans for the Fall
The kids are at Grandma's for a few days this week. Which means . . . . I'm planning to spend a chunk of time working on my blog. I learned a lot at the Savvy Blogging Summit, and came home with a brain that was whirling from all of the things I could/should/needed-to do. But I also came home to three precious children who will be grown … [Read more...]
Introducing Myself as a Slob
I'm at the Savvy Blogging Summit, and that's my view as I write this morning. This very early morning when I should be sleeping, but can't. Perhaps that is due to my still-spinning head after only a half-day in the presence of blogging greatness. It's fun (and frightening) to go into a situation where I openly introduce myself as Nony the … [Read more...]
