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.

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.

Summer Cold, Lack of Sleep, and Kids...Oh My!

I have been dealing with the worst Summer cold I have ever had...yikes! One day I was trying to get some sleep and my children kept interrupting my sleep with crazy issues like fighting over toys and the fact that one was starring at the other one.  I promise I think one complained that it was Monday and not Tuesday...I'm just sayin.

Anyway, that day was the motivation for this latest video, "Can I get Some Sleep Please?"
