Dear Diary

Dear diary,

I cannot wait to hear what happens next to the Mcks. Her blog is, after all, my favorite reality-based virtually-almost-exactly-true soap opera. What, if anything, can keep her show afloat? Gosh, which wild and crazy plunge will the Mcks take next?

One thing is for sure, she's got all of us across the MWOP on pins and needles as we wait for her to stop talking about making a decision she won't share and actually makes it. It's like she's drawing this decision out to keep us coming back for more or something. She wouldn't do that, though. It's not her style.

Until she writes again,

MWOP

Product Consultants

doTERRA oils are expensive. The 15mL bottles of peppermint oil cost almost $35 a piece. If the 5mL bottle was just 1/5 the cost, that's $7 a bottle...times 100 for this giveaway. Not including the shipping for 100 fragile vials from "Aunt Patty" to the 100 winners.

Which leaves several people on here wondering if "Aunt Patty" is rich, or if she will be using these addresses for future customer purposes.

doTERRA has product consultants much in the same way Mary Kay or Avon would: mailing lists = customers = money. Hopefully "Aunt Patty" is loaded, and not using this giveaway as an underhanded way to gain customers.

On another note, if you are lucky enough to win peppermint oil, please do not digest it unless you have read up on it first.

And yes, I noted the link to the cleaning post. If only we could all have such humor in the face of our faults.

Going Pink!

On to my original post for this weekend! Save the ta-tas, MWOPers! October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and I would love to see this blog do some more good. We don't have the number of readers other blogs might, but you guys are a passionate group, and the last few days have brought forth some heartbreaking stories of cancer and loss.

To do my very small part, I'm adding links to companies, organizations, and products that support breast cancer awareness month to this site. Please click and click often to see how you can help raise money to help fight this horrible disease that kills a woman every 69 seconds.

Last example

What a whirlwind day. I read the latest "I am flawed" post and it irritated me the way MckMama excused away plagiarism by saying she posted that before she had ads. I have another photography example from 2009 when she certainly had ads that a commenter left in yesterday's post that I want to post to further prove it wasn't a 'one-time, 2008, pre-ads' occurrence.

It is my understanding that BlogHer was contacted before yesterday's post went up and they were sent a few examples, not just the ones from yesterday.

I am sure there are more, but this is my last example. I don't want to beat a dead horse.

I do want to add if you're going to own it, own it. Don't excuse it.
