One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Remember Kids Will Be Kids

At Atria's I have SO many incomplete blog posts that it's laughable. They're incomplete because I'll start writing them and then life happens. They're incomplete because in between my inspiration for the post and editing it, I realized that I had a sponsored post to complete. They're incomplete because some national event took precedence. They're incomplete because I realized that we needed milk, eggs, or some other essential and I just forgot about it. There are so many explanations about why they're incomplete that I could devote an entire series of posts to that. Instead, I'd like to share a post from several years ago about how my kids messed up my grandmother's birthday dinner...

A Peek Into the Life of a Blogging Mom: Saturday

Like most working moms I cherish my weekends. This weekend is no different. Well, it is slightly different... Being the dutiful son that he is and a lover if home improvement projects, Andre has committed to redoing his parents front steps. Apparently, there will be crushing the original steps with a sledgehammer, pouring concrete, and creating new steps. I am certain it's more complicated than that, but as you can see, it's a lot of work!

So, what's a blogging mom to do?!

I have to identify activities for me and baby to occupy our time. I also have to figure out how to do the housework alone, unless I go on strike... Hmm... That does have some appeal.

While I contemplate pulling a Norma Ray, I'm going to take the baby to community day at the Carnegie Library in Oakland. I'm actually typing this piece on my iPad as I wait for her to wake up from her brief nap. Let's hope we enjoy our library visit. Guess what?! She's up now. So, we're going in. I'll keep you posted!
