Where You’ll Find Me

where you'll find me

While I've been hunkering down on work and personal life over the last few months, I've managed to keep on writing about my favorite activity: TRAVEL. I do have a few trips coming up very soon, so stay tuned for more, more, more as I continue my journey to explore the world, mostly with my kids in tow. I want to inspire them by showing them parts of the world I didn't really start exploring until I hit adulthood. Here's where you'll find me. Over on MiniTime, where I write bi-monthly about family travel, I wrote about Great Things to Do with Read More

A New Day: Chasing Life

Chasing Life

I'm not going into too much detail, but I've spent the last ten months chasing life. I admit I'm stealing that phrase from the new ABC Family TV show, which I just happen to be watching right now, but when the shoe fits...... On the show, the main character is given a scary diagnosis just as she's kicking off her career as a writer.

Blog Hopping: Why I Write

Write what you love

I have always loved to write. I thrived in Honors English Classes in high school, writing short stories and poetry and was on the editorial team of the school newspaper. I went on to major in Journalism in college and spent some time in the CNN newsroom before moving to NYC to work in television programming and production.

But it wasn't until I started blogging that I truly captured my journalistic spirit, returning to my roots in writing. From travel to culture Read More

Unbalance by Ann Imig

Ann Imig

This is the first entry in my new series "I Don't Know How She Does It," written by Ann Imig, a stay-at-home humorist and the National Director of Listen to Your Mother (LTYM). In some overwhelmed moments, I still wish I could just be content with the privilege of affording to stay home raising my kids.  I wish that the business of mothering could fulfill me completely, because my five and seven-year-old boys' baby days are bygone, and their childhoods feel fleeting. I already have to bribe my boys for hugs. Kisses are completely off-limits. Read More
