How is it possible that Thanksgiving is but a few days away? THE HOLIDAYS ARE HERE.

I actually love this time of year, but I've been incredibly fortunate to be swamped with work lately -- both of the paid and volunteer/school kind -- and I'm trying to keep myself from getting too behind on things.

I've been failing miserably, or it feels like it anyway.

(Am I the only one who is so hard on herself when everything is due at the same time? I don't know what I expect when I try to cram three days of work in two hours. A miracle?)

So! What have I been up to? Why am I hugging Billy?

As you all know, I'm working for Mom.com and our launch party was last week. A crew of fantabulous bloggers and so very many friends that are un-linkable (but very likeable!) came out to support us. I love them even more than Billy. And I really should stop calling him Billy, because his name is Andrew Shue and he founded the company I work for and I'm pretty sure I don't want to get fired. Because my job is so much fun

What's next?

I'm hoping to catch up on Frog &amp; Snails posts for you. There are some amazing boy toys out there and I know you boy mamas need help navigating the sea of pink this gift-giving season. My sons and I have some ideas for stylish gifts, so check the Society page as I will be updating multiple times a day.  Fun!
