			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I must say, Twitter has opened up a whole new WAHM world to me.  When I first joined Twitter, there were some WAHMs that I knew I wanted to follow if they were there. I was happy to find and follow Kelly McCausey, <a href="http://www.quicksales.com/app/aftrack.asp?afid=722010" target="_blank">Mom&#8217;s Talk Network</a>.  I thought I was familiar with her work, but have learned just recently of her generousity as well.</p>
<p>Kelly has posted (on Twitter it&#8217;s tweeted) her third annual WAHM Business Christmas Wish &#8211; asking the question <a href="http://www.wahmtalkradio.com/blog/what-is-your-christmas-wish/" target="_blank">What is Your Christmas Wish?</a>  And in the last 5 days, she has made some extraordinary WAHM wishes come true!</p>
<p>With the help of the WAHM community, Twitter, and the World Wide Web &#8211; WAHMs have been granted wishes of Mastermind memberships, software resources and learning materials.  Some wished for VA help, mentoring and coaching.  I even snuck my wish in there for two of Kelly&#8217;s ebooks. (I received one yesterday &#8211; Hooray!)</p>
<p>If you are a WAHM, or someone who believes they may be able to help Kelly make more WAHM Christmas Wishes come true &#8211; <a href="http://www.twitter.com/kellymccausey">follow Kelly on Twitter</a> to learn of the wishes she&#8217;s looking to fulfill.  She tweets them several times a day, with the hashtag #wahmwish. There&#8217;s no way Kelly could do this on her own, but it&#8217;s through the generosity of others that she has been able to coordinate this incredible gifting.</p>
<p>I believe Kelly&#8217;s still accepting wishes, but today could be the last day!  Read this morning&#8217;s blog post at <a href="http://www.wahmtalkradio.com/blog/" target="_blank">WAHMs Talk Radio blog</a>, then watch for her &#8220;Big Wishes&#8221; post later today to contribute cash for help in fulfilling some big WAHM wishes.  That&#8217;s what I&#8217;m planning to do &#8211; my tiny way of &#8220;paying it forward&#8221;.  What could you do to help a WAHM&#8217;s Christmas wish come true?</p>

I had planned to post here about all I was thankful for, then my friend <a href="http://losingitandlovingit.com/blog/182/i-am-thankful-for/" target="_blank">Angie</a> tweeted about her post in response to Mommy Community&#8217;s <a href="http://mommycommunity.com/2008/11/24/i-am-thankful-meme/" target="_blank">&#8220;I am Thankful&#8221; Meme</a>.  It&#8217;s simple, all I have to do it post about what I&#8217;m thankful for! And because it doesn&#8217;t have to be detailed, this list might get long &#8211; so here goes!</p>
<ol>
<li>First, and above all, <strong>my husband, and my boys</strong></li>
<li><strong>My friends</strong> &#8211; the old ones who know where I&#8217;ve been, and most recently my newer, online friends who can share my vision and see where I&#8217;m going.</li>
<li><strong>My family</strong> &#8211; extended family.  I have the greatest in-laws, and while my family is nowhere nearby, I know they&#8217;re always there.</li>
<li><strong>My support system</strong> &#8211; that I have one, because there are so many that don&#8217;t.</li>
<li><strong>Our Health</strong> &#8211; I say &#8220;our health&#8221; because right now every here is relatively healthy. (Keeping fingers crossed)</li>
<li><strong>My Online Businesses</strong> &#8211; that although they aren&#8217;t at the point of replacing one of hubby&#8217;s salaries, they are at least making enough to supplement it, and take some of the pressure off.</li>
<li><strong>Coffee!</strong> &#8211; Okay, had to throw that in there <img src='http://mywahmblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </li>
<li><strong>Our situation</strong> &#8211; that being that hubby has two jobs that are making enough for me to stay home and take care of our boys, that we have 2 cars that run, and can make the mortgage every month &#8211; though we always wonder, and plan for &#8220;what would happen if&#8230;&#8221;
</ol>
<p>Oh, I could go on, but will just summarize it here by saying I definitely have a lot to be thankful for again this year!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img alt="" src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh300/lhaugh08/mjcomputergames.jpg" title="Meet my new competition" class="alignleft" width="284" height="284" />Here he is!  My newest source of competition for time on my PC, lol!</p>
<p>At 4.5 years old &#8211; the monkey is all over wanting to play &#8220;dot-com&#8221; games.  Little Man wants to go to Cartoon Network like Big Brother does and play those games.  We have had the argument more than once that he is not old enough, and Nick Jr. or PBSkids games are for kids his age and much more fun for him to play.  I win, of course.</p>
<p>And now it&#8217;s a fight for the computer each morning.  Last week i laid down the law.  I get to be on the computer until 10:00am (after Dora).  Then he gets his computer time &#8211; short attention span so right now it&#8217;s usually not more than 30 minutes.  We do some learning games together, but he&#8217;s also kicked me out of the room with an independent &#8220;I can do it myself&#8221;.  Good for him!</p>
<p>Slowly my kids are going to be taking over my PC, I know it. That&#8217;s okay, just means &#8211; I get the new one! <img src='http://mywahmblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
