Oh my god, I'm so excited to be getting emails from blissful friends who have received the book!
Speaking of blissful friends...I'm still at the Jersey beach with mine. I am typing this while looking at the beautiful ocean view from her kitchen (she can't kick me out and I won't leave. Plus I think we have squatter rights now?)
The conversation above went like this: Me: "You need to wear sunscreen, remember my blog post about tanorexia?" Her: "Tara, remember I don't read your blog?"
Then my son snapped this photo:
Weather is beautiful, wish you were here!
and my daughter didn't make it in that shot above because she had just been bitten by a horsefly and wanted to be transported by medi-vac to the nearest emergency room. oh, the drama.
Those kids were so cute!!! Anyway, where is that beach located? It is such a perfect place for summer.

Got it! I had already started a blog and had no idea how or what I did. Your book has already helped me figure out what I did. Thank you Tara!

Hi Tara,
I sure hope your book is here in Orlando. I will check today.
I have been in the mountains of Montana for a month without blogging,email or facebook. I survived!
Love your blog. Glad to be home.

Oh too cute, airlifted due to a horsefly bite, hee! Looks like you are having a great time at the beach. I saw your book at Barnes & Noble and browsed and read through it a bit, but I entered a giveaway for it so I'm waiting to purchase it for a few days...but I might not be able to wait and will probably go back and get it, LOL!! :) One thing I read in your book, that I did when I restyled my blog this week, was add a picture of myself! It was something I'd been avoiding. But I decided it was time...

I have to say I just picked up your book and I LOVE it! I had no idea what it would be about but boy, I am loving all the "how too's" and shortcuts and all the information in this book. I posted about it on my blog, hope that was alright and told everyone to rush out and grab a copy that it was a must for all who blog!
Thanks for all your hard work and all the tips! now if I can get school to start to get some alone time to try all the tips...
