While my oldest was little, I worked part-time, which meant my two days home were usually spent running errands, or enjoying downtime with her. When we moved from PA to NC, I found myself a newly minted stay-at-home-mom and […]
This post is one I feel pretty qualified to write. Ice cream is my favorite food, so I’ve tasted quite a few of the options out there. I thought it would be fun to put a list together for my favorites ice cream shops Charlotte NC in case you’re looking for a sweet treat. Best […]

Office Hours for the WAHM. They are a struggle, I feel like, for all of us. Do we set them? Do we not? How do we decide on hours? What if we miss an opportunity because someone else didn’t have office hours? What if our Type A, Green, has-to-be-efficent personality struggles to let emails sit […]
