Thank You for Asking

I must confess that I have not been keeping up with new blogs the way that I did three years ago. Time is really the biggest factor keeping me from reading more. But on occasion, one grabs my attention. My recent weekly fix is the blog Thank you for Asking—A woman starring in her own movie that nobody is watching.

It is a tongue-in-cheek account of one woman’s "trials and tribulations" of trying to keep up in the glamorous Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. As a wife, mother, blogger and someone who loves design, this blogger makes me laugh. I particularly love that her New Year’s Resolution is not to say the F Word in front of the children—an admirable resolution that I should adopt.

    I just read her most recent post and I am crying with laughter. A very wicked sense of humor! Good find.

    I agree with Anne. A sense of humor and style it would seem.

    Oh, so true. It put me back a few years--but so much of what she said could have been me---glad everyone is now grown; "the Jillians" of that era are almost forgotten and the boys seem to have outgrown the ADD thing.

    I know who I would cast - it really would make a wonderful film. Thank-you for telling me about this cheeky woman.
