Meet Katherine Center

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

The Mom-Stuff Blog Tour wants to introduce you to Katherine Center. 

The Mom-Stuff Blog Tour is really excited to visit Katherine this week. We believe all of our moms will enjoy this week with her. I want to share a video with you . This was my first introduction to Katherine’s work. I love this video!  It is an example of how I feel about motherhood. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8K9s7_k3TM  A video essay about motherhood by Katherine Center http://www.katherinecenter.com for the Mom 2.0 Summit in Houston this February http://www.mom2summit.com

Meet Katherine

Katherine Pannill Center started writing fiction when she was in sixth grade, when she and her two best friends filled countless spirals with stories about meeting Duran Duran at the mall and bewitching the band members into falling in love with them.  These stories involved kissing, weeping, limos, the occasional log cabin, and many gentle blankets of snow.

Around that time, Katherine also started keeping journals, logging with great sincerity every detail of middle school life as she knew it.  Lists of friends!  Lists of boys!  Lists of must-have shoes!  Lists of personal flaws and areas for improvement!  The journals (though not the lists) continued through college, and now Katherine has storage boxes of them taking up far too much room in her attic.

Katherine always intended to be a writer.  At St. John’s School, in Houston, where she clocked her K-12 years, she generated stacks of poems, school newspaper columns, and short stories.  At Vassar College, she majored in English, wrote short stories, lettered her poems onto metal signs that she put up around campus, and wrote a novella (which won the Vassar College Fiction Prize).

Better Way Moms-A Mom-Stuff Favorite

The Sisterhood of Motherhood

The Sisterhood of Motherhood

Camraderie among women has never been my strong suit. I grew up with one brother and no sisters. I had cousins my age but none lived closed by. I of course had friends but as a tomboy, I didn’t always mesh with the “girlie” girls. I liked my friendships in high school but never felt quite at home — just enough to get by and be properly socially integrated. And by now you may have guessed that I never joined a sorority either.

Blog of the Week-Better Way Moms

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010
 The Mom-Stuff  Blog of the week is Better Way Moms. It really isn’t a blog. It is a web site for moms. We want to welcome you to Better Way Moms.  They provide a source of honesty and humor about the true trails and emotions of being a mom. Today we are sharing as article by Sarah we know you will enjoy. Declare TODAY as your some day. Make a comment and join the movement. Your happiness is important to you, to your family and to all of us as Moms.

 It’s Not My Time.

About eight years ago I was having dinner with married friends and my at-the-time-boyfriend. We were talking about how hard it is to be married, what the day-to-day life can really be like, and how the relationship can suffer. Suddenly the wife of the couple blurted out, “Well! It’s just not my time right now! I have two small boys, I don’t get to do anything for myself and it’s just not my time right now. I just have to accept that.”
As I slowly inched away from her. I remember thinking, “What on earth is she talking about? It’s her life, it’s always her life, no matter what she’s doing. Doesn’t she know that?”
Oh the joys of judging others when we have no idea what we’re talking about. Ignorance is bliss I guess. (more…)
