Tell Me Thursday for:
Couch Time With Kelly McCausey
I must confess… I took great joy in poking fun at Kelly McCausey in this post and making you wonder at the same time. I even waited til the very last minutes of Thursday to tell the story. I guess that’s just my mischievous streak.
Ok, it all started during a conversation on Mom’s Morning Show about Wordless Wednesday photos. During this conversation, Kelly stated her pet peeves about photos and what types of photos she deemed “not worthy” because they weren’t interesting enough to be wordless.
The irony is that the first time Kelly participated, she posted a photo of her sofa. Not that it was an ugly sofa, in fact, it was quite lovely and cozy… but other than that, I wondered what the big deal was? So now I’m doomed to tease her for eternity about her sofa photo.
The other thing is, Kelly is probably one of my favorite online friends. It really sucks that we live so far apart. I imagine sitting on my couch someday and shooting the breeze with Ms. McCausey about life, business and the infamous couch photo.
I’ll say, “Hey, you opened your big mouth and besides, it’s so much fun making you eat your words” to which she’ll raise her eyebrow, look at me and say, “Stick a fork in it; it’s done!“
Shopping With The Household Helper

A new podcast that has my attention is The Household Helper. I’m a little proud of Cara, because I actually allowed her to practice interviewing me late last year as part of a contest for Mom’s Talk Radio . After that, she was bit by the podcasting bug and launched her own show in January 2008.
The Household Helper’s Host Cara Mirabella is a work at home mom of one busy toddler.
Cara admitted: “I’m a recovering clutter-bug .”
One of my favorite episodes so far is Episode #5 - Bonus Show where she talks about organizing your home. At first I figured it would be “blah blah clean” and “blah blah take out the garbage” but I was suprised that it wasn’t as boring as I imagined and she even talked about shopping for containers! Yep, that’s when I really perked up.
Need some organization in your home with permission to shop? Check out Cara’s tips on her weekly podcast.
Shopping with Single Mom’s Talk Radio

Because I have been a single mom, Single Mom’s Talk Radio, another fabulous member of Moms Talk Radio is dear to my heart.
Single Mom’s Talk Radio host Tishia Lee is a joy to listen to and a sweet mom that will steal your heart.
One of my favorite episodes is Show #6 - Reviews of Online Dating Sites as Tishia shares her experience in shopping for a man.
I couldn’t help but smile inside and wish I’d known her when I was a single mom. Are you a single mom? Are you shopping for someone you can relate with? Tishia’s bubbly personality (usually) and honesty will be a refreshing jolt of reality for you.
Moms Morning Show Jump Starts My Day
February 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Just about every week day morning after I drop the kiddos off at school, I make a beeline to the kitchen to fire up my Senseo and start my day. But that’s not the end of my morning routine… far from it!
I’m truly not a morning person. In fact, if you know me well, then you know I really don’t want to talk to anyone first thing in the morning. I’m just kinda grumpy that way. Are you surprised? Really?
I have about an hour and a half before Mom’s Morning Show starts from the time I drop the kids off. During that time, I do the mundane daily things I need to do to be productive for the day. I know that by 9:30 Central Standard Time, I need to be ready to multi task because that’s when I get my “daily spunk injection” from other moms that I can relate to via a live conversation on Blog Talk Radio.
Some mornings, you’ll hear me and other Mom Talk Radio hosts as a “Crew Member” on the show. Other days, I’ll be passively listening. On my best days, I like to harass Kelly McCausey from the web chat while as I multi task.
Having trouble getting your day started? Join us every weekday morning for some fun!
Inspired By: Natural Moms Talk Radio

Here’s another secret about me: I’m in awe of Carrie Lauth of Natural Mom’s Talk Radio, another fabulous member of Moms Talk Radio.
Natural Mom’s Talk Radio host Carrie Lauth describes herself as an earthy, crunchy mom. Seriously. Until I became familiar with Carrie, I would have taken that as an insult!
While I’m far from being crunchy, I’m getting a great education from listening to her tips and becoming more aware of the benefits of Carrie’s lifestyle. One of her most recent podcasts that intriqued me was the show Beauty Secrets of the Bible with Ginger Garrett. I’m rethinking some of my own beauty treatments and cosmetics after absorbing this topic.
Carrie says, “A well informed Mother who learns how to choose what will work for her own family and leave the rest behind is a happy Mom…”
I look forward to hearing more great shows from Carrie and learning more about natural mothering.
