That's "mad" as in insane, crazy. Not p.o.'d or furious. We're talking just a little bit to the left of center, off my rocker . . . you know. You especially know if you have a home business and are a house wife.

So today I sit here wondering what have I got myself into? I have plunged into this network marketing business because I love my sponsor . . . no, let me say worship . . . and, well, it just seemed like if she could do it I could do it. She is everything I wanna be. Period. I just sit there watching her, in total awe with my mouth hanging open. When my drool starts running down my chin I snap the jaw closed and myself back to reality though. I mean, I'm not that out to lunch, at least I don't think I am. Just the fact that I'm sitting here writing in my home business blog proves it. Something my sponsor recommended, by the way.

So I've been to two meetings so far, paid my dues, got my stuff from the company of apparently which I am now an actual member, not a mere employee, and here I am on day one wondering now what.

The member factor is big for me. I have worked for years and years doing things for other people (not the least of which has been slaving away for my immediate family — and Sarah Palin I am NOT, let me state loud and clear, right here, just so nobody has false expectations) and so being an actual "member" of something and maybe having a vested interest in it, which they say I do, feels really important to me and is very validating. Like I am becoming a true member of society — the kind that contributes to the community, earns a respectable income, has their hair and nails done occasionally, wears lipstick. Having a home business blog makes it feel even more official, like my words will be read on the front page of the Wall Street Journal every day or something.

If you are at all like me, you will "resonate"(to use a trendy buzz word) with what I am saying, and you know what it's like to feel like a foreigner in your own country, on the fringe of a productive society, because you've been holed up for so many years trying to get meals on the table and kids to school and skunk spray off the dog. Makes you feel pretty isolated. In fact it's just plain other-worldly. I mean I never even heard of a blog, much less a home business blog, until yesterday and frankly am still not quite sure how it fits into the picture.

So. Hmmm. Well, it's still the first day, and I know I can get something done. So I'll start now. I just wanted to put my thoughts down in my diary — whoops, I mean home business blog, because that always does me good. It's like the only person that ever really listens to me. The diary/blog, that is. (See? Downright other-worldly, me. Kurt Vonnegut could have used us types as good fodder for his sci-fi fantasies, may God rest his soul. But he did a good job anyway.)

So, one thing I DO have to help me along here is this other tool, besides my home business blog, which you can check out in the link below if you so choose. Meanwhile, thanks for listening. To be continued . . . matty macnutt
