Life Hacks Of A Working Mom

This probably applies to moms in general but since I am a "working mom" this is my life story...


  • "Turn down for what" only means one thing...coffee!
  • "Me time" only happens when both my husband and my child are napping...this is a rare commodity
  • I know it's time to shave my legs when I see black strands of hair protruding from my legs
  • I drive down the road singing Bubble Guppies...and I'm all alone
  • I make a wonderful gourmet  Italian soup called...Progresso 
  • A day off from work can only mean one thing, time to finally clean my house
  • Finding one last pair of clean socks means I can put off laundry for at least one more day...maybe two
  • If my child pukes on me before I get to work, no need to fear Tide-to-Go is here! 
  • A $5 pizza is easier than making Mac & Cheese
  • All of my daily errands have to be condensed into a 30 minute slot called a lunch break
  • Movie date night with the hubby means the new LMN movie & take out
  • Who needs diaper bags when you have disposable Walmart bags
  • Coffee in the morning, coffee in the afternoon and coffee to help me do all the chores at night
  • I rejoice when my child comes home from the baby sitters ready to take a nap because it means I get to nap to! :D 
  • If the decision is between sleeping an extra 15 min. in the morning or wearing makeup to work...that's a no brainer 
  • I use dry shampoo...a lot
  • And most important of all...being a mom is the biggest blessing a woman could have and I would do it all over again tomorrow! :) 

Being a mom is the hardest, most challenging, best thing that has ever happened to me! Sometimes I think I just want to sit down and cry, that's when I look up and my daughter looks at me and says "I love you mommy" and I realize all is well with my little crazy world! I am blessed!
