Entrepreneur Mom

with Aliza Sherman

I've been living in Alaska for the last three years so have watched Sarah Palin's move from Mayor of Wasilla to Governor of the State and now to John McCain's running mate. I, too, have some of the same questions as many other Americans such...

Single Mom at Work

with Kristin Darguzas

The last time I had a blood test, I was in my first trimester of pregnancy, pale and jittery.  I remember sitting on the squeaky stool at the lab, in a sterile white room that smelled of cotton batting and hospital vinegar. I stared at the...

Full Time, All the Time

with Karen and Robyn

It's moving day here at my office.  Due to recent acquisitions and a real estate consolidation, the building that I currently work in has been sold.  Everyone that works in the office park is moving to another office park about 5 miles down...

Catch Your Breath

with Karen M & Karen R

One of my original goals was to fit into a bridesmaid dress for my brother's wedding. Seeing as I was a size 16/18 when I started this journey in January, I was sure excited when the zipper went up on a Junior size 12/13 last weekend, which...

The Working Closet

with Sarah

Cute shoes! Everywhere I look! Flats, boots, pumps and wedges in every color under the sun! Rich, autumnal suedes and leathers. Snakeskins. Patents. Wooden stacked heels. I'm telling you, it's enough to make me weep with joy. However,...

The Work It, Mom! Blog

with Nataly

Last week all of these happened to me so yes, this is a vent. I hope you'll join me in the comments. So here goes, in no particular order... 1. Canceling a meeting 10 minutes before the scheduled time. In my case, by email, which I was...

Cornered Office

with Mir Kamin

Casual Friday with Mir---because some days are made for wearing your jeans and surfing the blogs. Goooood morning! Yet another week is drawing to a close, and all I can thinking is that tomorrow, I can sleep in. I think my body is trying...

The 36-Hour Day

with Lylah M. Alphonse

On Monday, when Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin confirmed that her 17-year-old daughter Bristol is five months pregnant, leaders of both political parties agreed that the situation was not for political consumption, with Democratic...

Ordering Disorder

with Chris Jordan

I have been somewhat uninspired to cook lately. Want to know why? Could it be because I still do not have a working kitchen? This is pretty much what my kitchen looks like right now, only my husband has finished putting the sink in....

Moms On Issues

with Sara and Veronica

There are, for sure, many unanswered questions about Sarah Palin for Vice President. I have a list of about 50 that I'm not sure tonight's speech will answer. There is, however, one thing about her that remains clear: Sarah Palin is a working...

Work It, Dad!

with Avi Spivack

I brought our daughter to the local playground yesterday, and with beautiful weather it was the perfect antidote to the end of a very hectic summer. As we walked in the gate, three other couples with younger children were entering as well,...

Milk and Cookies

with Linda and Kristen

I'm sure some children's rooms are perfectly decorated to be a magical fairyland of wonder and joy, but in our house the kids' rooms just seem to be cluttered repositories for toys, books, piles of clothes -- both laundered and dirty -- and...

Mommy Needs a Business

with Kristen

OK, that's not how the saying goes but that is my life these days. All of those mailers I decided to do? I ended up with 624. While affixing address label number 618, I noticed the address said "Santa Monica Boulevard, Richmond, VA." You...
