artist — mother — create — love — laugh — pray
This is to be a quiet place for me. A well deserved 10 minutes for a mommy to gain clarity & perspective, perhaps discover how to manage this balancing act of mine? I've also decided this to be my creative voice so you will likely see art (& artists) I admire, recipes, inspirational quotes. Or even a nod to the latest gadget/child must-have? My joys & frustrations with parenthood, work & most anything else that goes on in my oh-so-glamorous life! I'm a stay at home mommy by day. At night I read bedtime stories. When I'm not busy cutting food into small pieces, I design.
uber-organized.
Cozi Central. Just found this on one of my favorite sites Daily Candy, Cozi is a fabulous and free shared family calendar. Shopping lists. Send quick text messages to family members' cell phone. Cozi just works. It looks clean, organized and uncluttered, regardless of hectic schedules. Truly could not be easier and now I don't have sticky notes stuck all over my house. Okay. So it seems I'm ever on the quest to be more organized. (Those who know me best probably think that's a good idea?) Personally, I'd much prefer to live my life in the moment and wing it. Hey, if it works it works. Of course if it doesn't work (which sadly for me it does not) I've heard of this cool free program that lets you keep an online family calendar. Anyway, I just made this planner my internet browser's homepage so my lists and daily schedules stare me smack in the face whenever i flip open my life-line, oops, I mean my laptop. Two words: Do This. Just log onto Cozi Central — a totally free web tool made for busier-than-busy parents. The software (which was written by ex-Microsoft whizzes) is a mini command central for the fam.
Oh, and it’s color coded (did I mention I simply adore color codes?!!!) for each member of the family (yes, babies, too), plus centralized shopping lists that can be accessed on your PC or Mac, by text, or verbally via cell phone (from, say, the peanut butter section of aisle thirteen?). No more scheduling meetings. No more double bookings. No more forgetting to pick up the milk. Cozi also lets you delegate tasks to other family members and send them calendar updates and messages by e-mail or text. I almost feel completely on top of things? <smirk>
