The Homeschool Post’s Annual Blog Awards are now open for nominations! There are SO many great blogs out there that I always have a tremendously difficult time deciding who to nominate, but I’m going to sit down this week with paper and pencil and make my list. There are twenty different categories, so you can [...]
See Jamie on Facebook
on August 17, 2011
I did it. I’m back on facebook. Now that I can update it via my iPhone, I’m not really “on” it as much, which was my main goal in the first place. Shutting down my facebook profile entirely for months broke me of it as a habit, and that’s a good thing. And now, See [...]

Flat Jamie Winner Announced!
on June 1, 2011
Flat Jamie has been running a giveaway contest to find out who will be her travel buddy to Relevant ’11, and today she’s happy to announce the winner! It was a tough decision for my family to choose Flat Jamie’s companion. All the offers sounded fabulous! There were promises of coffee and tea, promises of [...]
Win Flat Jamie as Your Travel Buddy!
on May 4, 2011
Last year, Kris took Flat Jamie to Relevant. A delightful time was had by all. I thought that maybe — just maybe — the real Jamie would go to Relevant 2011, but it looks like that just isn’t going to happen. However, Flat Jamie wants to go again, and because she is so doggone much [...]
Happy-Making Blogging Tips
on March 1, 2011
I have a blog, and I read blogs. Neither of those facts makes me any sort of blogging pro, but in my opinion, these tips will make reading your blog more enjoyable for anyone who visits. 1) Make an “About” page. Keep it fairly short, but give me the basics I need to know for [...]
Who Reads Me?
on February 16, 2011
A month or so ago, I conducted a little reader survey to find out who the heck reads this blog! For those interested, here are the stats: 98% of my readers are female. 95% of my readers are married. 94% of my readers are parents. Of those… more than half (56%) have 3 – 5 [...]
See Jamie Blog in 2011
on December 22, 2010
We are taking this week and next week off from doing school, and Ken will be home all next week {yay!}, so we plan to enjoy some relaxed family time. Therefore, I’ll be taking a little blog break until the new year — which is not far away! I have been rather haphazard in my [...]
Flat Jamie’s trip to Relevant 2010
on November 10, 2010
Thanks to Kris, it appears that Flat Jamie had a grand time at the Relevant Conference this year! She even laminated me to keep me safe. I met Marsha… Cheryl shared her salad with me… I enjoyed dessert at the beach party (looks pretty good, doesn’t it?)… When my flat self was exhausted at the [...]
1st Blogographer Meet-Up
on October 2, 2010
Today was the 1st ever Blogographer’s Meet-Up! And I learned some valuable lessons to apply before our next meet-up: Get REALLY specific about where to meet. Wear a neon sign on my head so everyone can find me. Ken and I waited by the Marietta Welcome Center (and the Cool Bean Coffee Shop) from about [...]
Blogographer RSVP!
on September 23, 2010
The 1st gathering of Blogographers (my made-up word for those of us who blog) is coming up soon! Next Saturday, in fact! I thought it would be fun to have a different sort of RSVP and we could all get familiar with each other’s blogs before the get-together. (Plus, this way, I get to play [...]
