Note: This might make more sense if you read Evil Girl Scouts Stole my Diary first. My 6th grade diary was read privately at first. The Girl Scouts passed my diary around to schoolmates who read it covertly in their damp wood-paneled suburban basements. It was only a matter of time, however, until “Sharon’s Diary”…
Evil Girl Scouts Stole my Diary
I’m frequently told that I am aloof. A little unapproachable. I believe this stems from the spelling of my name. Ciaran. People are afraid to approach me and get it wrong. “How do you say it? Is it See Air AN? Keeran? Karen? See air ah?” When someone gets it right and calls me “Sharon”…
LifeProof Your Phone
What if I told you that the above shots were shot with my iPhone, UNDER WATER? Did you shudder a little at the thought of putting your “precious” in the pool? I know I did, at least at first. I had my LifeProof case on for an entire month before I worked up the…
Top 10 Most Annoying People On Planes
1. That Kid that Won’t Stop Kicking (almost always accompanied by innocent baby that can’t stop screaming, probably because his sibling kicked him). 2. The Hygienically Challenged Passenger who has not showered for a month and has just eaten a bean burrito with extra onions. Always removes his shoes. 3. The Oversharer with an iPhone…

Disney Days,Vinylmation & The Gentle Art of Bribery
After over a decade of dragging my four kids to theme parks, specifically Disneyland, you would think I had it all figured out. But I had to go to Disneyworld for Disney’s Social Media Moms Conference to perfect what might be the handiest tool yet in my theme-park-mom tool belt. Shield your ears if…
The Mommy Wars: I am a Conscientious Objector
Just for the record this Mother’s Day: I don’t care if you delivered on your couch without meds or via a heavily medicated C-section I don’t care if you breastfed your child. At all. 3 minutes, 3 months, 3 years… whatever. I don’t care if you Ferberize and I don’t care if you co-sleep. I…
Are Mommy Bloggers a Bunch of Boobs?
I used to think I knew what blogging was about. Making a connection with your words. Credit for craft and community. Validation in the form of respect from your peers. Last week I went to Mom 2.0 where I had lots of dreamy idealistic convos about authenticity, intention and conviction. A deal with Martha Stewart…
An Idea this Mother’s Day: Pay it Forward
I wrote a post a couple of weeks ago about how I’ve found myself in new place this Mother’s Day. I’m not looking for gifts. I’m so grateful to be a mom. I’m glad to have four amazing kids that actually tell me they love me. I consider myself incredibly lucky. For the first time…
Mom 2.0 – Why I Go
For many of us, making the decision to leave home and attend a conference can be a difficult one. Particularly when you are not strictly traveling for “work”. That is to say, compensated work that is currently paying the bills. It’s expensive to attend conferences. It can seem selfish. This sums up how I felt…
