Happy New Year!

Posted by: Laurie In: Balancing Acts| Healthy Living| Working At Home

Two days until 2009 and currently my to-do/calendar system is a little, well, interesting to say the least. Important deadlines are always put into my Google Calendar. I love the Google Calendar system, especially now that it is integrated into my Gmail! But I don’t really like to use it for all of my ongoing [...]

Paying for Peace

Posted by: Laurie In: Boys Boys Boys| Working At Home

How much does peace cost you? Today it cost me $310!! Yup $310 and I get two free hours (well free of my lovely 4 year old!) several times over the January to June period. I signed my baby up for a Fun Factory program at my local rec centre. It’s basically a play-based preschool [...]

About

Hi! I'm Laurie and welcome to my blog about being a work at home mom! I have three wonderful sons and a life always lived on the go. I work from home as a virtual assistant, I chauffeur to soccer and swimming lessons and I sometimes remember to clean house a little! I have a fabulous husband who keeps me on track and we live in the wonderful, but COLD, province of Alberta.
