I bought the domain name 3boysmad before I even logged into Blogger to set up my blog. I knew I was going to want a blog without the pesky “blogspot” in it’s name. Not becuase having the blogspot makes you any less of a blogger, but becuase I knew I would be leaving my URL in comments and did not want to have to type out six million nine hundred and forty two letters each time!

For my other blogs – yes I have several other blogs. One that is quite popular, I had a good friend do the domain changing stuff for me. This time, I decided to try it on my own. I think I got it pretty good, but my friend did go in and switch some things around for me. ( I had emailed him m asking him if I was on the right track – I wasn’t)

Before I got the email back from him saying he was changing a few things I lucked upon this article. I will not quote him here, but if you are looking for detailed step by step instructions WITH screen shots on how to go from a blogspot blogger account to your own domain hosted by name cheap ( the blogger help section does not have name cheap directions) please head to the page I linked.

It was a huge help to me!

I think that the first thing I need to do is introduce myself. My name is Mom, Mommy, Hey, WAhhhhhh, He took my car/truck/ball, Make him stop it, Can I have …well the list could go on for ages if I really put my mind to it!

I am a stay at home mom of three boys, 8, 5 and 3. I have had one “real” job in my entire life. Almost two years working at a restaurant on the side of the highway. That was during high school. After High school I moved in with my Granny and went to university for two years. I wanted to be a teacher. I met my husband and we conceived our first son during my second year of university.

I did not return for a third year.

We got married a few months before our son was born, and this summer will celebrate our ninth anniversary.

Being a mom is a fun job, it has its very own set of ups and downs, same as any other job. The only difference, really, is that I will not get fired for blogging about my job and the glaringly lack of a wage.

And so it starts, grab some coffee, maybe a few cookies and stay a while!
