Avatar: Archetypal, Cliche’ or Both?
Those of use who spend a lot of time online think of an “avatar” as a digital representation of yourself, such as you might use in a virtual world or social networking site. That definition certainly makes sense for the movie of the same name, where the characters take on an “alien” persona in order [...]
Transition Time
Please bear with me as MoreThanMommy gets a makeover!
New Year, Same Vision
I’m not a big fan of resolutions. When I have made them, I have typically broken them right away. It’s just not the way I enact change in my life.
That said, I do like to reflect on the past and think about areas of my life that I’d like to change or keep moving forward. [...]
Voyeurism, Holidays and the Guilt Factor
I haven’t written here much lately because I’ve been busy with this and that and far too many product reviews and kids and hives and Christmas and… bunches of other stuff. The kids are playing nicely together and I have a moment so let’s see what I can do.

Things Are Looking Up
Yeah, yeah. I’m overdue for a post here. Then again, this is my spot to do whatever I want, right?
I’m here in good spirits. First of all, an overdue link to an article I recently wrote for the 360PR Trendletter on Dad Bloggers: http://www.360publicrelations.com/trendletter_0709_web.htm#daddy. It was fun writing about something a little different and the [...]
Universal Balance
I am a firm believer that you have to remove all of the negative forces in your life to make room for the really good stuff. It’s not some weird metaphysical thing, either. It’s simple. If you’re wasting energy on negative things, you don’t have it to reach for the positive things. And, if you’re [...]
