Numbers don’t mean much to me-it’s not about how many readers or followers I have or if our traffic is amazing. What is important to me is people-making real connections and building friendships. It might not ever make me a millionaire but, cliche as it might sound, it makes me feel richer then any fat bank balance ever has.

Nothing has allowed me to build friendships like our weekly #omhg Twitter chats. We meet every Thursday from 1-2EST no matter what else is going on around us. Sometimes people can only stop by for a quick hello and others get deep into the conversation-some faces I see every week and others a new friends waiting to be made. It’s really like going to a party, minus any social awkwardness. Every week I am blown away by how smart, funny, talented and supportive the women of this community are-just look at these prints!

All of these wonderful prints in this post are inspired by our weekly chats and there is enough fuel for many more-stay tuned for an exciting new project by the #omhg crew. As we gear up for some fun changes around here to celebrate my 365 days of editing Oh My (yay!) I am starting by changing up our sidebar with a new #omhg category where you can find everything related to our chats. Since they are such a large part of our community I will be posting the chat transcripts + highlights Thursday evenings before the post of the day. To bring us all up to speed click here to download our #omhg transcript for June. Some day I will find a transcript program that I can make pretty (let me know if you find one) but I’ll keep on looking since…

I hope we’ll see you tomorrow on Twitter for our last chat of the month! We’ll be wrapping up our chat about storytelling and getting ready for our Oh My! Party theme.

Care/Carry/Cure an essay from ‘You Care Too Much’

In June of 2016 I supported my love Chris as we dealt with the death of both his parents and a co-worker over a three week period. This essay written the summer of those deaths is my attempt to make sense of grief and the struggle to carry all that I care for. Originally published […]
