Blogger Profile: Karen Andrews and miscmum.com

As part of NaBloPoMo, National Blog Posting Month, I’m profiling a different member of The Aussies every day this month (until I run out of members).

Today it is Karen Andrews’ turn. Karen writes The Miscellaneous Adventures of an Aussie Mum at miscmum.com).

I’m not an Aussie Mum, but I do have (grown) children of my own. I find Karen’s story of her daily life very touching - balancing marriage, friendships and life in amongst raising her two children. Every now and then she also talks about her breasts (I’m a bloke, and I will admit to following the link from the RSS feed to her blog to see the photo :) ).

My favourite recent postings are:

If you want to say hello to Karen, visit her blog or her NaBloPoMo homepage.

    Re: the breasts. At least you’re honest! LOL. That made me laugh.

    Again, I’ll say, this is a nice thing you’re doing for the month :)

    Such a great idea Andrew! I look forward to following your posts for the month (I have recruited 2 more bloggers, so you should have enough to fill the month LOL)

    Hi Leigh,

    yay, two more people :) Cool, thank you, that means that I don’t have to profile myself :)

    Best regards, Andrew

    :D Maybe someone else could profile you, instead? I saw the extra two so I thought “someone’s going to miss out”. D’oh didn’t stop to consider that you were one of the 29.

    I agree a great idea :)
