One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Celebrate the Seasons With Traditions

Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. "Family traditions counter alienation and confusion.

Newsflash for Pittsburghers: A Place to Get A Dominican Blow Out

Ladies, if you don't know about the power of the Dominican blow out you should give it a try.  It is a technique that is known to tame the most unruly hair.  It not only tames it, it makes it bounce, behave, and shine with or without chemicals.  Having had my hair done by Dominican stylists in other cities, I am a believer.  I've often whined about their being no Dominican stylists in Pittsburgh.  It appears that the hair gods have heard my prayers!  Pittsburgh now has a Dominican Salon.  The information appears below:

Primo Hair Studio
5450 Steubenville Pike
McKees Rocks, PA 15136-1412
(412) 787-3330
(M-F 9:30-6:30; Sat. 9:00-5:00)

I just discovered this today and haven't had a chance to frequent the salon yet, but I do intend to give it a try. Just sharing the news! (Let me know if you get a chance to check it out first!)
