I'm trying to just stick it out and hope that people can be respectful. If not I'll have to do something because it can really eat you up when you know you are being discussed/judged!Mrs Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082932653215907248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-42633120100410924592008-02-26T23:47:00.000-05:002008-02-26T23:47:00.000-05:00Hi Mrs. Furious!

I just found your blog and I couldn't agree more with your 'Please' video! <BR/><BR/>Mean people suck and I unfortunately decided to go private (at least for now) because it bothered me too much to worry about what some of my acquaintances were saying about my blog while I wasn't around. <BR/><BR/>I feel like we are offering information and if people get something from it, that's great, if not, then they should do everyone a favor by not reading it!Olivia: (mostly) Happy Homemakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10806127559226506009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-85043110628702925482008-02-19T17:01:00.000-05:002008-02-19T17:01:00.000-05:00Mary,Oh thank you :)Mary,<BR/>Oh thank you :)Mrs Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082932653215907248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-27893624983684715492008-02-19T14:43:00.000-05:002008-02-19T14:43:00.000-05:00Hi Mrs. F -- I'm behind on your blog and just saw ...Hi Mrs. F -- I'm behind on your blog and just saw the video on the nasty comments you received. Shame on them! I'm sorry it upset you, but honestly, you don't owe anyone an explanation. I love your blog -- and read it almost every day. I wish i could be as disciplined as you are!

I not only admire your strength in the things you are able to achieve in your life, but also the strength you show when you reveal, in such vidid ways, your weaknesses. That takes immense bravery and courage to open yourself so completely up to people you don't know. It also takes great trust in human nature and I'm sorry that you got hurt as a result. I hope that you don't let it affect how open you are because that would be such a shame. Please, continue on as you are because you're right, too many people enjoy and like you just the way you are.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15167781724086312806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-78765802829761172762008-02-16T20:05:00.000-05:002008-02-16T20:05:00.000-05:00Robin,"If I was looking for someone to help me be ...Robin,<BR/>"<I>If I was looking for someone to help me be more organized, I would be reading Flylady's website.</I>"<BR/>good point!<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>Jennifer,<BR/>Thank you for that comment.

So, don't allow them to make you feel bad. Or inferior or whatever. <BR/><BR/>You can obviously tell spending any amount of time on this blog that you put your energy and effort into the things that are IMPORTANT to you. Your health, your family's health and happiness, your family, your fun, your marriage .. so what if you have toys laying on the floor. That is not what you are going to remember when your kids are grown. That is not what they are going to rememeber. <BR/><BR/>You have motivated me with your success to want to show you that I can do it too. That, my friend, is amazing that you can touch someones life through a computer that you have never even seen before. It is a gift and a talent. That is what you should focus on. The rest will fall into place, or not. <BR/><BR/>Smooches. xxxx<BR/><BR/>JenniferJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16821245532511885309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-16897423601448072162008-02-16T15:58:00.000-05:002008-02-16T15:58:00.000-05:00I'm so sorry people were mean to you!

I read your blog because it inspires me to cook more, get more fit, and have fun with my kids. Plus it lets me know that I am not the only one that is sometimes overwhelmed by life as a SAHM (and all that entails.) If I was looking for someone to help me be more organized, I would be reading Flylady's website. :)<BR/><BR/>I wish I had taken pictures of the terrible mess the other night before I cleaned up.

And today I bought my first Method all-purpose cleaner, and changed to their laundry detergeant last week (both of which smell great, btw! should have got the "naked" versions, but I cant resist a yummy new scent!). Both me and my family are all healthier because of you. And the girls and I have taken to afternoon "dance" sessions, lots of messy art projects (diningroom table is permanently glittered now!), and general chaos. <BR/><BR/>Just a nod (again) in your direction!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-35490463079534756602008-02-16T13:35:00.000-05:002008-02-16T13:35:00.000-05:00I think you are great...please keep up all the gre...I think you are great...please keep up all the great Blogs...

Grandma and Grandpa's house - full of 5 kids' worth of saved toys and lots of other fun things.

I am a mommy of two small children, work 28 hours per week from home ( with those two small children running around), and am working on losing weight and getting in shape. <BR/><BR/>The fact that you excel in so many areas (cooking, mothering, fitness) is incredibly impressive to me. I find it a daily struggle to do any of it well- work, exercise, dieting, or being a mommy. I just try hard, like you, every day. What I've learned is that the best thing we mommies can do for one another is be supportive, provide encouragement and help each other remember that the days of messy homes and crayon all over the walls (or panty liners on the craft table) are short-lived. We should all sit back and enjoy it as much as you seem to. <BR/><BR/>A cluttered house is the sign of a creative mind. Bravo, Mrs. F.And rock on. :)Jenny O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00951955443577338492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-81483313171223411882008-02-16T13:17:00.000-05:002008-02-16T13:17:00.000-05:00Dinah Soar,"don't let "those" detractors live in y...Dinah Soar,<BR/>"<I>don't let "those" detractors live in your head rent free.</I>"<BR/>excellent point and really I read this when I got up and thought ...
