BABW–Build-a-Bear Gift Card Giveaway!!
Dogs. Bears. Cats. Pandas. Horses. Bunnies. Dragons. You name an animal. Build a Bear probably has it! I know because we have a collection of BABW furry friends strewn around our house. BABW furry friends make the perfect toy for all ages. My little guy clutched his Elmo by the ear when he was not... »
Blogging for a Living?
Two years I started writing a blog. It was part of my grade for a graphic design and writing class. On the blog I commented on design elements that intrigued or repulsed me. Yes, repulsed. I have strong feelings when it comes to design. I may not be able to recreate the design using... »

This event will present a history of the issue and... »
Conferences, Conferences, and More Conferences
Over a year ago, I had barely heard of blogging. I had a blogspot blog that I started when I created a blog for a design class. I let the design blog lapse, while continuing to write on the personal blog. The posts were interesting to me, but I knew that I needed something more. I started clicking around... »
School Year’s Eve…Better Late than Never
Happy School Year’s Eve! I know I’m a little late with this post, but a few things got in the way like the actual preparation for the first day of school and a blogger event that you might have heard mention on twitter #tabletalk. The event took me to Minneapolis, specifically the General Mills facility.... »
The #1 reason I am not pursuing a career in graphic design
The Finals Story I was enrolled in a writing and graphics class at the University of Baltimore in Spring 2008. The class was tough for me. For the spring semester, I basically completed written and graphics projects for my class and provided basic childcare for my children (5, 10, and 12) — that was it,... »
Teacher Conferences: What Do You Get Out of Them?
Every year since my children were in preschool I have scheduled conferences with their respective teachers. In elementary school, fall conferences are for meeting the language arts teacher and spring conferences are for meeting the math teacher. Often I schedule conferences with both math and language arts if I feel there is an issue. I... »
Deadline Again!
O.K. I am on a deadline again. I have to submit a rough draft for a project to my professors by 5:30 p.m. Spent zero time on it this a.m. while 5-year-old was in preschool. Spent zero time on it while grocery shopping. (Why oh why is grocery shopping for just a few things... »
A Post, a post, my kingdom for a post
I’m baaack. This week has been a killer. My graduate class is a killer. My assignment for this week is a killer. Basically, I am sitting here when I should be finishing my project. I am the queen of procrastination. The assignment has taken seemingly all of my waking hours. Lots of computer time. Lots... »
Back in the swing of things
I think I may have solved–temporarily–my time management problems. I have this problem with multitasking. I am either a full-time stay-at-home mom or I am a part-time graduate student. Now when I am a grad student, I still have all the mom responsibilities. I just have a harder time completing mundane things like laundry... »
