Despite the fact I’m familiar with many of the cutting-edge social media technologies, I am often hesitant to adopt them because I’m already too busy with blogging, Twitter, Facebook and my iPhone.
However, my latest obsession Pinterest.com has surpassed them all.
And believe me, that’s really saying something.
I’ve gone from being a bored cook to being [...]

I don’t know if this is a product of age or motherhood…but I have become a stranger to the fine art of sitting still and doing nothing.
It’s been years since I’ve been able to sit through a movie without stopping for some reason.  The dog needs to go out, the dog needs to come in, [...]

Saturday morning found me in an awkward position—tackling downward dog on a gymnastics mat in a community center with three other adults and three toddlers. It was not the morning I had planned.  
I signed my two-year-old daughter up for toddler gymnastics as a birthday gift. I was so excited to enroll her because she’s my [...]

Father’s Day is not what it used to be.  I’ve gotten used to many of the milestones I have faced since I became a widow, almost 4 years ago.  I can jolly us through Christmas and be thankful on Thanksgiving.  I can even look at his birthday as a celebration of his life.  But Father’s [...]

I’ve seen many helpful blogs here in the Mile High Mamas about tips for getting the most out of your trip to Disney World. And I’m just going to be upfront about this right now: This is not one of them. But I’m betting that if you’re planning on making the trip [...]

Hey peeps—I’ll try not to be snotty and talk down to you, however that might take some effort.   I was, after all, on Fox 31 news the other night and am pretty sure there’s some talent agents out there looking for my phone number as I type.  Okay, so I probably should mention that I [...]

I have a confession to make: I knew I was going to have a great time in NYC for BlogHer10 before I even got there. Yes, it’s true. I’d decided before I even had my bags packed.
You can do that?
Yes, you can, and I do it before every trip I take.

In two weeks, I get to have an adventure like none other. I get to go to NYC alone. …well, alone with 2,400 of my fellow bloggers.
Yes, it’s time for the BlogHer Conference!
This will be my first BlogHer Conference, and I can’t wait!
Years ago, before I had a child, I was part of [...]
