I'm Still Here....

I'm still here...I'm still here?...I'm still here! It's all in the way you say it, think it, feel it. I'm pushing 60 hard, it's only a few turns on the wheel away and funny thing is, I really never thought of being there...how odd. It's really hard to avoid it, and believe me I've tried! My thoughts were never of what would happen when I got old, the kids left home, I was a grandmom, loosing my parents, or husband...it just didn't seem like it would ever happen. It never occurred to me that time… Continue

Why I Love Scott Fox's Book, Internet Riches

I always loved reading "Cliff Notes" as a young student. Not as a means of beating the system but as a way to quickly learn the pertinent information at hand. Come to think of it, moms deserve cliff notes because we need to absorb things fast and furiously as we go about our day multitasking carpools and kids, work, school, house, parents... need I say more? Today I thought I'd do you the honor of creating a short list, cliff notes if you will, from the book that got us started on the Butterfly… Continue

Moms with Moms who are Crazy But Sweet

I have always had a challenging relationship with my mother though she would deny that. And though we've had our ups and downs I have to say that she has instilled in me a sense of right and wrong, generosity and the courage to fight for what I believe is right. She is 60 years old now. Not too old to follow her dreams, which she has done by going back to school, buying her own home, helping build that home! But, she is slowing down a bit now. She gets tired a little faster these days. It remin… Continue

I began performing professionally at the age of nine. My career took a few twists and turns, but I was actually able to support myself for quite some time as an adult. It was more than just what I did for a living. It was a big part of who I was as a person, and I enjoyed it so much that even after I decided to change careers and become a writer, I still performed whenever I could. In fact, the first time my husband ever saw me, I was singing back up in a band, at the Bitter End, in NYC. Long st… Continue

Mompreneurs Anonymous

My latest blog entry Okay, so I’ve gotten to that point in my mompreneur career where my family is telling me that I’m spending too much time working. My husband actually had to semi ban me from the computer all weekend. I had to sneak on here while he was in the shower. It’s hard to explain to someone that my kind of job requires all different hours, especially when it’s so hard to work during the day when I am all alone with… Continue

The Stay-At-Home-Mom Syndrome: Does It Affect You?

When I was a little girl, I always dreamed of becoming a mother someday - one that stayed home and raised the children. I wanted 2 kids since I am an only child. Both of those things have come true, so why doesn't it feel wonderful 100% of the time? You can read the rest of this blog post on my blog at: www.theunexperiencedmom.com Continue

A Star is Born...and You Can Watch!

Have you heard about the woman who's going to give birth live on the internet? That's right, according to Boston.com, Lynsee (that's two "E's"), a 23 year-old teacher from Minneapolis, is going to bring forth her 1st child live on camera for the whole world to see. Am I shocked? Not really. Grossed out a bit, but not shocked. She's going to famous. Really, really famous...for like half a day...maybe longer if she goes for the Petocin. Now who doesn't want that? According to CNN in this era of… Continue

spin the wheel

I am spinning the wheel of diagnosis again at ooph. I do this thing where I diagnose myself with a disease about, oh, EVERY TEN MINUTES. If I feel the slightest amount of pain in my head, I go straight to visions of me in the hospital and my family standing around my bed and saying, "We told her that cheap red wine was going to cause her brain to swell. If only she had bought the more expensive wine, she wouldn’t be in a coma fighting for her life." If an age spot shows up on the bridge of my… Continue

Excuse me While I Name Drop!

Somebody Roll out the Pink Carpet! It seems as if I just went on a Sassy Socializing World Tour! I first hit up SITScation in Las Vegas, which I already boasted about in another post. Then 4 days after that I attended the Internet Mommy book launch party in Santa Monica. Kimberley Blaine, The Go To Mom held her event at the Fairmont and it was Fabulous! I arrived early (I have a habit of that) and so I was one of the first to talk to Kimberley about her new book, which is a collaboration of suc… Continue

Halloween Tricks and Contest Treats

Halloween falls on a Saturday this year- what a bonus for working moms! No need to race home from work to take your children door to door. No need to feel guilty that you can't make it home until past dark. Halloween is on Saturday this year- what a wonderful thing! My son is of the age where he thinks it's hysterical to dress up like a cheerleader and actually convinced me to buy him the outfit. Pom poms and all. My daughter, on the other hand, had her mind set on being Hannah Montana which mea… Continue

Breastfeeding Stories! What's Your's?

Hello Everyone - My name is Samantha Lewis and I am in the process of writing a book on the comical side of breastfeeding. I decided to write this book when I had my second child. Breastfeeding did not come natural for me and I swear everything bad that could of happened did. This book is to answer all of the crazy questions you have that everyone is afraid to answer for you. I'm looking for other stories about their breastfeeding experiences whether good or bad. I'm looking to publish a few of… Continue

Devastating News

I just received some devastating news. My son informed me he is not going trick-or-treating this year! It was bad enough when my daughter stopped. I’m having déjà vu. This reminds me of how I felt when my daughter was 2-1/2 years old and I learned that naptimes didn’t last forever. Ridiculously,… Continue

I Want the Happily Medicated Piece of Pie

I have a doctor’s appointment today in which, for the first time in my life, I am going to have a conversation with an MD about treating my attention deficit disorder. I have severe ADHD. What? Why did I wait until I was 46, you ask? I knew that was coming and I am prepared to answer it with this pretty pie chart I made using PowerPoint. I’ll retrieve it from my back pocket, rub out the creases on the exam table, present it to my doc, and as Reese Witherspoon’s character, Elle Woods, in Legally… Continue

New FTC Rules and Mom Bloggers

When I heard about the new FTC decision regarding blog disclosure, I got in contact with my friend Nicole Knox. Nicole guided me through the LLC process for Momtrends and is a terrific contracts lawyer. As a favor, Nicole put together this review of the new rules: Bloggers Beware! On October 5, 2009, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced that bloggers are going to be held to the same standards as advertisers or endorsers with r… Continue
