Facebook, Google+, Tumblr, Pinterest, and Twitter!

I've been piddling and fiddling with all the hoards of social networking sites for the past few days. It'll make it even easier to share stuff about the things I enjoy most (parenting, photography, star trek, etc) plus more platforms means more people!

I'm a misanthrope in reality (I don't even like myself most of the time) but I don't mind some virtual attention just like the rest of the people on the world wide web. Go figure.

So here are the pages and profiles! Go like, connect, share, follow, whatever:

Facebook - I guess this just my public page. Surely my musings all over my private page get annoying and I prefer to use it for keeping connected family. This will be nice for separating the two a bit more.

Google+ - Click here or click the fancy button on the top left of the page!

 Tumblr - I have several tumblogs. They are fun. Get one. The links are actually at the top of this page under New Mama Stuff, Kid Stuff, and For the Femme Nerds.

Pinterest - scroll down on this page and there is a button showing my latest pins and a list of what I assume would be the my most relative boards

Twitter - my twitter handle is spunkynerdmama

Recipes

     I've been on the hunt for some really good recipes. Thank goodness for awesome sites like Pinterest, Epicurious, and AllRecipes!! I can't stay on THIS site for long without literally drooling all over myself either.

I just went ahead and deleted the pin board I had for food and started a new one. I'd LOVE to see your favorite recipes so PLEASE do comment and share a link.

Right now there are two at the top of my list:

epicurious

     This pretty picture: Goat Cheese Toasts with Walnuts, Honey and Thyme. I'll probably wait for hubby to be out of town for this one since I doubt he'd eat it. My kids have enjoyed goat cheese/tomato/spinach pizza though so I think they'd go for this!

     The other is "Chicken Tortilla Stack" which is like a super delicious looking layered taco/enchilada style lasagna looking pie thing that I found on another blog via pinterest. Click the link for pinterest at the top of the post to see my board. It's on there! My hubby will DEFINITELY eat this. He's got a thing for southwestern/mexican foods. I just need to buy the sour cream and veggies. 

So yeah, seriously, please share some links! 

Have you noticed?

I've linked up a couple of tumblr blogs as pages. The links are just underneath the logo at the top of the page. On the first I have lots of info that, basically, I wish I'd had when I was pregnant with my first and a new mom. The other is fun stuff, mostly activities or products, that I've found on pinterest, blogs, or tumblr. Check them out. You might find something interesting.

Also, if you look to the bar on the right of the page there are several links. There's one set of links for my local favorites from stores to parenting resources. The other set is a general list of amazing resources for lifestyle or parenting. These are all the things I've found and enjoyed or used since I first found out I was going to be a mom.

Click around and I'm sure you'll find something awesome and/or useful!

Insomnia

Sweet sleep
You're way too deep
At least for me
I kind of think
We're no longer in sync

I'm not sure about this relationship
I'm not sure I have the patience
Anymore
To wait for you
Anymore

But you're so sweet, sweet sleep
Give me a ring, leave a message at the beep
Just let me know
When you'll show
And we'll make romance
On clouds of dreamy, glory we'll dance
Take my hand
Sprinkle the sand
In my eyes so I can cry sweet tears of relief
No more grief

Oh sleep
Come back to me
Just a nap
Just a zap
Of energy
Let's create some synergy
I can't wait
Anymore
I can't wait

Sweet sleep
You're way too deep
At least for me
I kind of think
We're no longer in sync

Let's not wait until I die
To spend some time together
I may cry
If I don't see you soon
I feel kind of like a loon
Dreaming as I wake
I'm thinking for the sake
Of sanity
We need to meet
And make amends
Don't retreat
No obstinate demands
Just an open invitation
To make sane a . . .

Splendid, solemn, sadly strange, secretly sweeping, sweet addiction
To staying up late
To finding all the ways
I can relate
To all those other crazies . . .

Sweet sleep
You forsake me
Don't keep
. . . taunting
. . . teasing
. . . tweaking
My existence
Let's reconcile
I'll close my eyes
Take my hand
And as I dream all the while
Heed my cries
And sprinkle some sand . . .


I shared this little blib I wrote on facebook and I may as well share it here too because plenty of moms can relate I'm sure.
