Hi, I am Mommy readers!
My name is Karen Hossink, and I blog at Surviving Motherhood. I have enjoyed reading I am Mommy for quite some time now, and on March 12 I am going to have the pleasure of meeting Amanda and spending a couple of days with her. (Are you totally jealous???)
Well, not being ones who want to keep a good thing all to ourselves, Amanda and I thought of something so you can join in our fun. One of the activities for our play-date is going to be a video interview. That is, we're going to pull out the webcam and I am going to interview Amanda. And she'll post the interview right here for your viewing pleasure.
Not only that, but you get to supply the questions!
Maybe you've seen one of the Q & A posts Amanda has done here previously, but you didn't get around to asking your question. Or maybe one of her answers provoked another question in you. Whatever the case, if you email me your question by March 10, I'll ask her for you. Up close and personally!
Send your question to Karen(at)IrritableMother(dot)com, with "Amanda" in the subject line.
Looking forward to hearing from you. REALLY looking forward to meeting Amanda!
**********************************************
You can also check me out over at Karen's blog today!
I am so, so excited to be able to go and see Karen speak at the Moms Night Out event in Burnsville on March 13th. But to take it a step further, I would love to meet you too!! I think I know most of the MN bloggers who read my blog pretty well... you are an amazing group of ladies!
So, I would love to extend and invitation to you to meet up at this event and share in some fellowship and fun! This event has nothing to do with me or my blog... its all about you.
About MOMS! Uplifting moms. Supporting moms. Loving our fellow moms. Have some fun together as moms!
And I really felt like it would be a great opportunity to meet some of the wonderful women that I call friends.
If you are interested in hanging out just send me an email with MOM EVENT in the subject line.
Cant wait to hear from you!
I've already receivd one question...Now I'm thinking I need to watch a few talk shows to work on my interviewing skills. *grin*
Love you, girl. This is gonna be fun!

Have fun!

Ok.... you are seriously making me want to move to MN. LOL. It's a bit of a long commute from here. :)
No questions at the moment, but I'll look forward to watching the interview, and I'll be praying for your time together.
Enjoy! Peace be with you, Kari

Sounds like a great time on the 13th - do you have more information on it? Sounds like a great girl's night out option!
Posted by: janis | February 10, 2010 at 01:06 PM
Ooh, that would be a drive for me, but sounds like a fun night! I'll have to look into it- I would love to hang out!
In the meantime, I'll have to noodle a question or two...

Thanks in advance for your help. Feel free to contact me at gmmasull@syr.edu if you have any questions.
