I am a working mom, with a husband and daughter. I have been an accountant for over 17 years in the brokerage industry. I am currently starting my own consulting business, and am in the middle of a financial overhaul.
So as I said, I have once again taken on too much. And then I wonder why I wake up in the morning like I drank heavily all night (I wish- that would entail having a social life). No, it is a work-too-much hangover.

As I continue to struggle with debt and finances we have accumulated over the past few years, along with a dwindling income, I have decided that someone needs a second job. And somehow I crazily decided it should be me. So I am launching (again) my own A ... Read more...
I haven't written in a while. I think things always get way too chaotic over the holidays. And my mother definitely loves to add to the insanity. Not only do I have a baby (she's almost 7 but even when she's 30 I will still call her 'the baby'), a ... Read more...

I don't know what possesses people sometimes? I find it difficult to know what they are thinking? I know that I am an independent, working mom. I pay the bills (almost always on time...I am talking to you Mr mortgage harasser), I go to work ever ... Read more...
As I come home in 97 degree weather (and I totally wilt in hot weather - frizzy hair, melted-off make-up - complete disaster) from the train, do I really need to hear my hubby screaming at the dog about the tissue he just chewed up. The dog ate a tissue, yo ... Read more...
The other day at work, a co-worker of mine told me that I need to open myself up to learning new areas of my field. This is really interesting to me because I have to say that I am really motivated to stay ahead of the curve. So I was not really sure ... Read more...
When I was young and carefree, I always wanted to travel for work. Send me someplace, anyplace - I don't care - I want to conquer the world. When they would send me to London, I was so excited. You would think they were sending me on a vacation, ... Read more...
