A couple of months ago, I contacted Elena at Three Little Birdies Designs to create a new look for MommieJoys.  Being new-ish to the blog scene, I didn't really know what I wanted/needed.  Elena was an incredible help!  I figured out the style I wanted, and she took it from there.  Buttons, header, social media icons, phone layout, etc.  Amazing.  She was always so quick to answer my questions, and I never felt pressured to be done and gone.   Read more >

Frustrated, scared, impatient, mad,sad, angry! This is me right now. I have 2 boys that drive me nuts. Don't get me wrong. I love them with all my heart. They are 3 and 7 and they are constantly on my nerves. If I have just one at a time, I'm ok. I can handle that. But the two of them together I can not deal with. The hitting, bickering and the screaming. My 3 year old loves to scream at the top of his lungs. You know that blood curdeling scream that physically hurts your insides. I'm tired.  Read more >

 Scott Shane's book, "The Illusion of Entrepreneurship" appeared in my life again recently. I purchased the book many months ago and never got a chance to read through it entirely. I somehow missed chapter 8, "Why Don't Women Start More Companies?"   Read more >

Third in a series of Five NYC posts.Fabric arts stores ooze posibilities......just like a new legal pad and freshly sharpened pencils waiting to write an anticipated manuscript.

All that's needed is quality supplies.Surely, inspiration and perspiration follow. Or not.  Read more >

     Don't forget an important deadline for tax payments for all self employed business people is just a short two weeks away. As a self employed individual you must have your final payment for the tax year of submitted by April 15th. If you are a procrastinator and have not completed your tax return, you still will need to make sure you have sufficient funds deposited to your account to cover your taxes. If you want to be sure you have sufficient funds in your account you can use the previous years tax totals as a guide.  Read more >
