Or something like that. (Mom don’t read this post.) (Mom, have you averted your eyes?) (For real? OK then.) So, Mother’s Day. I’m not the best at it. I usually forget until the very last minute, and my mom ends up with card if she’s lucky. Which she probably isn’t, because she has a daughter [...]

Downtown Cincinnati Inc is hosting Father’s Day Steak Out, where you can win a steak dinner at one of four downtown Cincinnati restaurants. Plus, there will be a [...]
Busy as a Bee… and Not a Blogging Bee
I’m not sure how long it’s been since my last post, but I know it’s been a long time. I’ve sort of ignored this little blog of late, haven’t I? Back when O was an infant, I thought I was about as out-of-my-mind busy as I could ever be. Oh, hindsight, you are so 20/20, [...]
Guest Post–Balancing Freedom
Hello! Tela here. Between national television appearances, raising my four-year-old, and uh, work, I’ve been a little busy. So I reached out to Dana to ask her to write a guest post. (Because I’m too busy to write a post myself, OBVI. I kid! I kid! I have some thoughts brewing and post a’coming. Promises.) [...]
The F Word
Flexibility. It can seem like a dirty word to working moms sometimes, can’t it? I’ve been thinking a lot about flexibility lately, especially since my son started a more formal “school” this year, with a lot more day’s off than this mama is used to. Since I’ve been mulling over the idea of work/life balance [...]
Working Mom’s Product Spotlight
Tela here, and I’ve decided to create a Working Mom’s product spotlight, detailing products that make a working mom’s life easier. As a mom, and especially as a working mom, I’ve found that every minute counts. Things that save me time, money, or effort are invaluable, and I want to share. I’ll try to do [...]
The Adventures of a Preschool Parent Co-op
I don’t know how I didn’t realize O’s school was a parent co-op before I enrolled him. Or maybe somewhere I read that it was, but I didn’t really knew what it meant. What it means is that that parents are heavily involved. Very heavily involved, which honestly, is a very, very awesome thing, but [...]
That’s Amore
Last week, I was invited to visit Chi-Natti’s with a bunch of other tri-state bloggers. The fates aligned, and I was actually able to make it outside of my house sans child. Woo to the hoo! I’m so glad I did. I got to enjoy the company of some truly wonderful ladies, and the food [...]
Working for the Weekend
I think one of the greatest things Working Moms Against Guilt is that we are three different women who have three distinct personalities, as well as three different working situations. I work full-time, out of the home, at an advertising agency. And I’m not like Sue. I don’t look forward to Mondays. I really truly [...]
Yee-Haw!
While I’m definitely lamenting the unofficial end of summer, Cincinnati knows how to keep the fun going with plenty of fall festivals. One particular festival I’m looking forward to checking out soon is the Old West Fest out yonder on the East Side–1449 Greenbush Cobb Rd, 45176 between Mt. Orab and Williamsburg, Ohio just off [...]
