I know I haven’t really been around much over the last week or so. However, I have been working behind the scenes giving Nifty Mom some updates and a whole new look. I am excited to finally make the changes live!!

Most of the other things won’t change, but you will be seeing more recipes in 2015, as well as more DIY/craft posts. Since home organization is something I love, I am also working on bringing more articles and tips for the home. If there is anything you would love to see, please let me know!

2013 Maytag Dependable Leader Award – It’s America’s Vote

“I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting (#MC) for Maytag. I received a promotional item as a thank you for participating. All opinions are my own.”

I believe it is important to get involve in great causes that can help others out. Sometimes, that can be as easy as a simple click to cast a vote. Right now, Magtag is looking for the best recipient of their 2013 Maytag Dependable Leader Award. The award recognizes those committed to making a difference in the lives of youth. From the five finalists, the winner will be selected through America’s vote.

Cleaning up after three sons and a husband can be a full-time job at times. There is always something that needs to be cleaned with little time to get it all done. My cleaning cabinets are full of products, including Swiffer products, that help me get the job done. I love their dusters, Wet Jet, and Dust & Shine spray.

For Mother’s Day, Join Me in the #SocialBlackout Movement

“I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for MetLife. I received a promotional item as a thank you for participating. All opinions are my own.”

 

Blogging and working from home isn’t always easy. It requires lots of scheduling, self-discipline and balance. This week, after coming back from SoFabCon, I felt inspired and motivated to find ways to create a more manageable schedule. Not just for me, but to benefit my family as a whole. I need a schedule that doesn’t include countless nights with less than 5 hours of sleep. One I can work through without having email, Facebook and Twitter open every waking moment of the day to consistently create distractions. One that allows ‘me time’. Then, with perfect timing, Metlife creates another challenge for me: #SocialBlackout.
