One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Stay Open to New Experiences

In the movie Love Jones , the male lead says, "romance is about the possibility of the thing." I agree with that. However, I think that the concept is more universal. life--truly living--is about the possibility of the thing. For a while, I was sleep walking through life, doing what was required without truly embracing it. Recent events have caused me to re-evaluate that and to embrace life and all of its limitless possibilities.   And romance, is about love. Over the past year I have become committed to falling back in love with my life. New relationships have made that love affair possible. And, I don't take them for granted. Creating space for new relationships and making new friends as a single, working mom, and creating space is not easy. But it is necessary.

A Peek Into the Life of a Mommy Blogger: I’m a Verizon Wireless Moms Voices Ambassador! #VZWVoices #Mom

I am participating in the Verizon Moms Voices program and have been provided with a wireless device and six months of service in exchange for my honest opinions about the product.  

There is news. Then there is "I am so excited I can barely contain myself in public" news. I have that kind of news to share. I started out blogging as a way to inform my friends in North Carolina about my life in Pittsburgh. Nobody read the blog unless I told them about it and that was fine with me.

Well something happened on the way to the delivery room. When I became pregnant I decided that I had information to share that would benefit other women and to my great luck, more people actually started to read it. Recently, I have also gained the interest of brands—small and national—who would like to collaborate with me. It’s been an exciting time and it’s given me an opportunity to serve as a trusted filter for my readers.

Recently, Verizon selected me to be a “Verizon Wireless Voices Ambassador”. It’s a cool opportunity because I’ll get to try out a couple Verizon devices and get my technology game up. I’ll also be able to share what I learn with all of you. I will find out what the devices are tomorrow at a Verizon sponsored event. I’ll keep you posted. Until then, take care!

Trust me, while I am excited by this opportunity, all of the opinions that I share will be my honest opinions.
