Time Management for Single Mommies

By Rosanna Cooper, Single Parenting Column

Who Has Time for That? This phrase is probably the one that spends the most time in a single parent’s head. For me, I’m not even talking about time to start a new business or get another degree. I’m referring to making up my bed before leaving the house in the morning.

Yesterday, I sent a follower request Twitter to a business owner in my office building. She sent a message stating I should come by some time. I responded I work in the building and often run into her at the Chinese restaurant during lunch. My mind immediately went back to a question my boyfriend asked me Saturday, “Did you ever find a new hair stylist?” At that moment, I realized the owner did not recognize me because the pictures on my Twitter and website were often not who she saw. 

Cheers to a New Beginning on LIfe!

Happy New Year! You’re probably thinking this is an old article. But no, I’m writing this in August 2012, the beginning of the school year of most children in the country. This year is not only a new school year for us, but a new school as a whole. People often talk about the challenges kids face when starting a new school but I have never heard anyone talk about the challenges parents face.
