New Occupation for Amy

My sis-in-law works for the local paper and emailed me a link asking for volunteer bloggers for a new  mother-aimed social networking site, called Momaha.com.  I saved the link and the email for about two weeks and thought to myself, "I might get around to it."  The week that all applications and writing samples were due, I decided to fire something off and apply.  I didn't expect to hear so soon but got an email from my now editor, asking me to be part of the team.  That was in November.

Almost 5 months later, I am the regular Friday blogger for the Omaha Mom Team and I am getting paid to do it!  Ok, so Kelly isn't turning in his resignation yet but it's nice to actually be paid for something I love to do.  I have received tons of feedback on blogs and much support from my friends, family and acquaintances.  It's been a treat to be part of something like this - well except for the mug shot that they took before the site launched - none of us members look like we do online or in the paper!

Keep checking out www.Momaha.com on Fridays (and any other day!) to see what I have to say.  Thanks for reading and commenting.  Pass on the link to your friends and family!
