Who is Cozytailmom?

I'm one of hundreds, perhaps thousands of blogging writers trying to get published. I'll keep you updated on my progress as the days go by. I'm so excited to finally have an official blog... and I don't mean the neener crap I've written on myspace.

I haven't got a clue what to write on my first blog. Argghh!! I hope this doesn't make or break me.

Here's my scoop.
I'm 31 and a mother of two. I love my children but I've been home bound with them for nearly five years and I'm ready to get back into the world and reclaim myself. I recently told my husband that I feel like this: A dog who has weened her puppies but they continue to run about under her feet trying to grab a teat while she snaps and desperately looks for a place to hide. Yes, that's me... a dog with droopy teats. Oh no, I mean, a mom who wants to get back on her feet.

So, I considered going back to work but feel like I forgot to write the great novel I promised my corporate America friends. You see, I foolishly thought I would have time to write a novel with small ones running around. Before I can do anything, I'll write a list. Oh how I love a list.
The following are my goals to be achieved relatively soon.... (should I set a date? I know, I know.. )

Finish novel (by April before my 32nd Bday)
Get Agent (whenever one will have me..)
Get Published
Loose 30 Pounds (How about May-ish)
Let hair grow out (that should be easy as I have the fastest growing hair in the WORLD! I kid you not)
Maybe go back to work but DEFINITELY get out of this house more.

I also have an online soap business and had the briefest glimmer of fame when Perez Hilton posted a YouTube video I made on his BLOG (which is my total guilty pleasure..) For about 48 hours I was a Youtube sensation along the lines of Paperlilies and LoneyGirl15. Soap orders rolled in and I was swimming in business for about a week. It was exciting and exhausting all at the same time. After the video fell off YouTubes Most Watched list, the orders ceased and I have returned.. Cozytailmom. The brief success helped me realize one thing. I will not make be able to sustain soap making. It is a lot of work for not enough dough. I'll continue offering the soap on SudsForVenus and occasionally list them on ebay but I don't plan to do anymore publicity stunts to get orders. From this point forth, I have committed myself to the above listed goals.

Now, occationally I will write very boring blogs. It can happen, just read the above paragraphs. When that happens I will attempt to reward you with a funny if I can.

Happy Valentines Day!!!!!
