Whoever said, “Patience is a virtue” neve met a stay-at-home mom with 4 children, overdue bills, and a lul in the income.
Hi. That would be me. If it happens to be you too can you please raise your hand. I’m feelin a little lonely right now.
I hate waiting on things. I told you how I sent out 5 queries this last week right? I know I should be more patient but I can’t help but keep a close eyeball tuned to my inbox. Do you do that too? Especially when things are slow. I will get a check from the paper next month (I got my track meet article in the paper today), but like I said, that check is at least another week or two off. Again, with the waiting. I am all about the ID people. Freud would have a field day with me. I just know it.
To combat my impatience, I added a few little widegts to my blogs. Now you will see my library both on The Guilty Parent and here. The libraries are different too. My library here will showcase some of the writer books I have read or am reading and The GP will follow the parenting theme with books the kids and I have read or books on Parenting.
You will also notice that The GP now has a blogroll. If you want to be on the blogroll and I missed you, let me know. I have a huge list in my favorites folder on the desktop but it was late last night and I was moving lots around. So if you notice that you were once on this blog but now you’re not, it could be because I moved you to The GP, so check before you send me hate mail. I love you all but I wanted to move some of you. I am working on keeping this blogroll for the wahms and writers and the other blogroll for the mom bloggers or moms who blog about parenting. Just remember, please link back to me somehow.
Another thing is that I am still working on getting parents who want to have parenting questions answered on The GP. So far that is very slow going. It doesn’t even have to be your own questions, it could be how to handle a parent friend of yours, something you read in the news and you want my take on it, it really could be anything. So if you are interested, just drop me an email at guiltyparents@gmail.com and I will post the question and my answer on the blog.
Uggh… Now you know how bad it is. I finally got around to organizing the blogs a little better. My secret is out. How do you handle the impatient moments you have?

Nikki, I’ve been known to check both my email and web logs constantly during slow days… 😉
