When Pets Are Your Coworkers

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

We all go to work every morning with our unconventional co-workers.  Children and pets are the ones we meet at the proverbial water cooler each morning.  But if you think about it, how crazy is this job?  Harkin back to the day when you actually commuted to work, dressed...wearing make ...

Workouts for WAHMs!

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

If you want to cut your stress level without resorting to a bottle of wine, try an energy blasting, kick butt workout to re-charge your batteries. I often find I'm tired, crabby and prone to eat things I shouldn't on days when I skip the workout. I'm not saying that you ...

I’m on Justin Long’s Side Now

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

There's a feeling of both excitement and stress when you know that purchasing a new computer is imminent. A brand new shiny computer without the annoying pop ups, viruses, crashes and blue screens...endless, new possibilities with a faster, better and much cooler processor.  The Bionic Computer! For years, we've been ...

Happy Halloween WAHMs!

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

I've got to admit it.  Halloween is my favorite time of year and sadly, I get far more into it than my kids.  I'm not sure if it is because it's the season where it turns a little cooler (in some parts of the country), and the leaves change (again, ...

Where are the Karma Cops?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

I'm going to talk about the big pink elephant in the room. It seems as though there's been a disturbing theme in the media lately that I can't shake and I'm wondering if our WAHM readers feel that same way. What is going on with kids and their parents?  A few ...

Rise and Shine!

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

If your house is total chaos getting everyone off to work and school everyday then you can relate.  The backpacks, the lunches; everything is a rush to get out the door. Today was a little "special" and extra "fun."  My girlfriend came to pick up my son for school and she ...

The Flu

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

It's here, in all of its glory...yes folks the flu is back.  Currently I'm blogging from the pediatrician's office.  Oh yes, my son with the broken leg felt that he didn't miss enough school this year and decided to catch something really nasty. Of course I'm being facetious, but when it ...

Cha-Cha-Cha-Changes

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

That David Bowie song keeps running through my mind lately, you know the one about facing uncomfortable changes.  The current economic environment has dictated that many of us make changes, whether we want to or not. Too many people have lost their jobs after making a comfortable living after several years ...

Broken!

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Working at home has its advantages...flexibility, time with your family and, oh yeah, not having to take off from work when your son snaps his tibia bone from trying a skateboarding trick on Saturday morning. Saturday morning my husband took my son and his friend to the skate park for a ...

<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->Find yourself drowning the sea of "trying to do it all?"  You aren't alone.  Many work at home moms are considerably stressed due to the work and home pressures that stay with them 24/7.  Many moms who work outside ...
