on
Greetings from Chaton's World in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! My days often start with laundry, early-morning emails, and making my kids a hot breakfast. They often end with late-night homework checks, making Instagram reels, and appearing on Celebrity Court of Public Opinion. Somewhere in between, I’m navigating boardrooms, working towards deadlines, and immersed in the good, bad, and ugly chaos of motherhood and household management. As a working mom of three and a professional carving out space in corporate environments, I share my journey of balancing leadership with loving my family, and I sprinkle it with self-care tips. Here, you’ll find honest reflections, hard-earned lessons, and practical strategies for creating an authentic life that you enjoy. If you’re trying to do it all without losing yourself in the process, you have found your sister in the struggle!  Continue reading to discover some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world.

Wonderful Wednesday: Save Big at Brookstone!

on
I bought an iPad on Black Friday and since then I have been a bit obsessed with electronics.  I have never been an "techie". However, buying my  iPad has made me a believer.  It has added so much to my life. I haven't been this excited since my parents got cable TV when I was 16! (Back then, that was a big deal since they didn't let me go anywhere and nobody had the internet at home.)
Although my iPad has changed my life, I want more electronics.  In particular I am amazed at how cool my toddler finds all things that light up and make noise.  She likes the "adult toys" more than I do and definitely more than her baby toys.  Perhaps she'll become an engineer???
Anyway, I was thrilled when I found out that Brookstone is having a sale. If you need anything you should check it out. Look below for details on how to save big!

I'm not someone who needs the latest gizmo, but I've gotta say, having an iPhone has truly rocked my world.

I dropped by from #commenthour on Twitter. Nice to meet you! :)

I tend to be the one dragging and screaming into new technology. I do like my laptop but I really like to keep things simple.

In regards to keeping your house clean, I do 30 mins online and 10 offline. It works for me. You can read more about it on Mental Mosaic's blog or mine.

Peace,
Morgan

Except for laptop I have no technology. I mean, I have radios and cassette players but nothing that starts with an I-.

Housecleaning is always a challenge. Since my spouse is working on her writing I vacuum a lot and do kitchen work. I clean the bathrooms but space it out so I only do 20 minutes at a time.
