Happy New Year to our Blogger Friends
More of our CyberSpace friends:
I found Kay over at Associated Content. If you ask Kay to describe herself, the first word that pops into her head is "mother". Perhaps "full-time mother/part-time office administrator/aspiring writer" is the best way to describe her.
In November she published a great piece on Associated Content titled Spotting and Shaking the Emotionally Needy People in Your Life. For people with challenges of their own, stearing clear of emotionally needed people is important for their own sanity.
To read Kay's piece on A Wild Ride, visit Growing Up, Growing Apart.

Slacker Mom on Slacker-moms-r-us.
While researching the Web for ideas when traveling with challenging children, I came across the Blog Slacker-moms-r-us. At first I was not sure of the title. But it turns out Slacker Mom is one of us: "I'm not a lazy parent but I do my best to not sweat the small stuff. Raising children with neurobehavioral issues gives me plenty to keep me on my toes. Falling into the perfect parenting trap leaves me feeling like a failure because my parenting issues are often not the 'norm'."
Slacker Mom wrote two pieces about her vacation for A Wild Ride. Read We're Taking the Kids and Vacation Update for a dose of reality and humor.
Her latest piece I'm Addicted on her own site is so honest it hurts, literally. If your children are into electronics, check it out.
