Commitments in real life will take me away from the blog beginning July 15th. While here, feel free to dig through the archives, list your site in the Blog Registry, visit the great bloggers who are listed in "Featured Blogs" or those who faithfully comment on the posts. The next lesson will be published on Friday, July 24th. Until then, enjoy....
If you’re part of the BWAB community, you’ll see her commenting.
If you travel through blogosphere, she’s there too.
She’s small in stature, but has a large presence in social networks, as well
In fact, she’s everywhere.
The name of her blog may produce visions of a “mommy blog”, but she rarely writes stories about her kids. Instead, she writes about issues that affect her as a woman, as a mother, as a blogger and as a caring human being, whose children are an important part of her life.
She calls herself the “Queen of Multitasking”, but in her post titled: “Multitasking Reduces Efficiency” she admits she’s trying to change her ways. She writes:
My own first goal would be to sit down with my kids every day when they get back from school and just listen to them, focusing on what they have to say, without attempting to get anything else done at the same time. Unpacking of lunch boxes and washing dishes can be accomplished after I spend at least half an hour, uninterrupted, listening to my kids.
With blogging and commenting often being about self promotion, in “Blogging - Are People Truly Interested In The Discussion, Or Is It All About Self Promotion?”, she observes:
There is a big difference between a community member promoting herself within her community, and an outsider trying to spam the community.
Where she finds them, I don’t know, but she comes up with the funniest “Wordless Wednesdays”. Check these ones out:

You’ve seen her on this blog, you’ve probably seen her on your blog, but for those who aren’t acquainted with her yet, her name is Vered, and her blog is “Momgrind”. She’s a blogger who started blogging in March (2008), but has already made a huge mark in blogosphere.
Everyone, please join me in re-welcoming Vered to the BWAB community, and don’t forget to check out her blog and the posts I’ve highlighted. She’s genuinely appreciative of all of her visitors and would love to see you there.
Hello again Vered!
