Portrait of a Strong Woman

Today, I'm once again over at Blogger Body Calendar, telling the story of a strong woman in my life.

Thanks so much for reading and for supporting this wonderful project!

Blogger Body Calendar: Survival

Today, I'm once again honored to be posting over at Blogger Body Calendar, talking about a time of survival.

Writing this story was incredibly cathartic. I only hope my sharing helps other too.

Thanks for reading!

The Survivor Gene

 

I am so excited to be apart of this year's Blogger Body Calendar project. If you don't know what this is, go check it out. The project was founded by one of my fave ladies, Amy Phillips,  co-created by the coolest mom on the planet Alex, and has and will feature some of the coolest blogger chicks out there, some that I feel proud to call my friends.

I discovered it last year, which was the inaugural year and they were able to raise over $500 for National Eating Disorders Association.

I swear that next year I'll badger them until they give me a spot in the calendar itself, but I am overjoyed to be the first guest poster for the blog.

This year’s theme is: Survivor and Strength.

"To me, above all, women are survivors. They survive domestic abuse, physical, sexual, and mental abuse, and the abuse we sometimes do to ourselves (eating disorders, cutting, etc.). Women survive, and do so beautifully.

This year our participants will show off that survivor strength, not because they are all survivors, but because they all are supporters of every woman who has had to struggle against the violence. All proceeds will go Violence UnSilenced."

Please go read my guest post and subscribe to the blog and, most importantly, put aside a little dough to purchase the calendar!

The Real Hoarders

Please go take a moment and read this post I wrote over at Band Back Together.

It's all dark and feely and stuff.
 

I'm not here

Because I'm guest posting over at The Bee's Knees today! It's Lil Butterbean's birthday week and I was one of the lucky ones she nabbed to post.

Well what are we still yammering on about over here? Get on over there and read my post!

My Girls

Friends, go check out my guest post over at The Antics of Miss Lizzy today.

When Lizzy asked me to guest post, I was so honored. I love this little lady as if we were in real life friends. She's strong and sweet and kind. And a brilliant poet. She always greets me on the Twitterverse and asks me how my day was. In short, she's awesome.

Go now! Go and read! It will make at least four of you cry. I hope.

Getting Bucked

Today, I'm guest posting over at i'll go eat worms, while the ever adorable Becky is on vacation.

I met this gal via the Twitter and I love her to death. She's hilarious and sweet. Her tweets make me giggle and her blog is, well, it's just too awesome to even do justice. Go check her out yourself.

But first? Go read my post.
