    I'm thinking of pre-ordering the book after finding Jill's article in the Huffington Post. Who else has pre-ordered? I'm really curious what it's going to be like!

    I haven't pre-ordered (haven't checked if I can from Canada, although I'm sure I can). Listen, I can afford to buy a couple of extra copies if there are any Scary Mommies who would like one but can't afford it. I know times are tough, so PM me if you're interested.

    I want to sooo bad, but my negative income inhibits this.  :(   I WILL get it once I get a job.  If that ever happens.  And I'll get one for my mom too because she is my hero. 


    @Foxy11  WELCOME!  My parents have a horse named Foxy!  Hope you're not my mom in disguise!  :-??


    Watch out for @kdt7688  I believe she's the one who frequently runs through naked!!

    ;))

    LOL! I'll keep my eye out for KDT, and no, I'm pretty sure I am not your mom. Or am I? >:)

  • I can do 4 or 5 extra copies for my ScaryMommys!! @scarymommy - can we set up something for board members?? Like a gifting thing?? A little fun, and we can share. Because SOMEBODY times their book to coincide perfectly with Mother's Day!!

    And if there is any gift I'd give to a new mom - this book and site would be it!!!
  • @Goddess - send me your address and I'll get your copy ordered tonight. You've kept me sane many a day!!!

    Wow @fatchickonanbike and @livinthedream that is AWESOME of you. I'm sure we can set up something here on the boards to organize some sponsors/people who can't afford the book. @scarymommy - thoughts??

    I would lovee! To preorder, but with a baby and another on the way, bills, and only one parent working, can't quite afford it. Working On getting a job so I can afford extras like this! Cant wait for the day I can just order something without thinking about it too much!
