Extreme Parenting – Confessions of a Liger Mom Pussy Cat
Published February 1, 2011 | 
Yes, I said “Liger” not tiger! A Liger is half lion and half tiger. I’ve been reading about all the controversy over Amy Chua’s book and essay on WSJ “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior“. Her book is “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother. Amy Chua

Leave a commentThankful Thursday – Glad I’m Homeschooling In Nevada!
Published January 27, 2011 | 
The boys are pretty independent now that they are both in High school. I don’t talk much about homeschooling anymore because I’m not doing much with their schooling. We use an online charter high school because I didn’t have the time to devote to their curriculum while running and growing my business. It was the easiest and best solution. That being said, I do supplement their education with projects and reports that I assign them to make sure that their education is going in the direction that I want it to. Today I saw a video excerpt that made me VERY thankful that I am homeschooling in Nevada, though. This could easily have been me and the boys.

Published January 21, 2011 | 
Working Class from CMT
CMT’s first scripted sitcom, Working Class, starring TV veteran Melissa Peterman and Emmy & Golden Globe Award-winning actor Ed Asner makes its network debut Friday, Jan 28, at 8pm ET/PT. The new sitcom follows Carli Mitchell (played by Melissa Peterman), a single mom from a rough and tumble background, trying to give her three kids a better life by moving them to an upscale suburb. She quickly finds that making the transition to “the good life” is harder than she thought. She’s unwittingly befriended by her cranky neighbor, Hank (Ed Asner), her only “career” prospect is a glorified deli job at the local grocery store, and the man she falls for not only already has a girlfriend – but he’s also her boss, Rob (Patrick Fabian). With her ladies-man brother, Nick (Steve Kazee), to help her out (when he’s not acting like one of the kids himself), Carli faces the challenges of parenting, dating and making friends in her new community by doing more with less, staying true to herself and approaching each day with a touch of working class.

Published January 20, 2011 |
There are a lot of people that I love and am thankful for in my life. There are people who have been supportive of me, who have helped me in so many different ways. But none of them compare to my mom. Even as a little girl I knew how lucky I was to have her as a mom, and that has never changed. That is why I wanted to say Thank You to My Mom today on this beautiful Thankful Thursday.
Dreamcatchers for Abused Children Fundraiser
Published January 19, 2011 | 
Dreamcatchers for Abused Children is a non-profit organization that helps to save, and prevent child abuse of all kinds. They are an organization that I found out about through MommyPR. They do wonderful work and help to spread news, information and educate the public about child abuse. For a limited time One Busy Moma is helping them with a fundraiser to provide Scentsy Buddies to abused children. Let’s help them spread the word and give a little love and comfort to children who have none.

Published January 19, 2011 | 
This is what we had for dinner last night. I made a couple of changes mostly because I used Buffalo flank steak instead of beef, and flour instead of cornstarch. I didn’t have any cornstarch, but didn’t know this until I had started fixing the meal so couldn’t go get it. LOL! But since when do I ever follow a recipe anyway?

Published January 17, 2011 | 
This weekend was a nice one. I got to see one of my best friends and her new little baby, got to spend some “quality” time with Steve, and even got to meet one of my long time customers face to face. There’s so many people I have to say thank you to, I don’t know where to start! Since I didn’t post yesterday, I figured I’d do a double helping of thanks though! Maybe more.

The other day we received in the mail a wonderful Thank You note from Steve’s sister. She was thanking us for the gifts we sent them for Christmas. Along with her note was another note from her eldest step-daughter, thanking us for her gift as well. It was so sweet. Steve’s mom also sent us a thank you card, thanking us for the gifts and the time she spent with us over the holidays.

Published January 13, 2011 |
Yes, I know it’s a strange thing to be thankful for but I am! Mostly because I live in Las Vegas where the summer’s are normally 110 + and the nights don’t cool down much at all. So to have these wonderfully cold winters is what makes it bareable during the summer heat. I can just remember how my toes were always cold, even in my nice thick warm boot slippers. I can think about how every time I stepped outside I had to wear gloves. How nice it felt to snuggle up next to my sweetheart at night without sweating! LOL!
