Welcome To A Busy Mommy On The Go! The New Life

Hello Everyone and welcome to A Busy Mommy On The Go! The New Life… Like I had mentioned before, I am dedicating this blog to helping busy mommies/parents get through their busy days. Through great tips and products, in 2009 we will find just a little extra time for “Me.”


Now, what you don’t really know is that, we will be learning together. I admit, I am the most unorganized person out there, and throughout most of my day, I don’t have the next hour planned. So, this year I have made my New Years Resolution. I will live an organized, posh, non chaotic (is that possible?) happy life.


I have a lot of projects ahead of me, including (but not limited to) purging my entire inventory of belongings, we have way too much. Many things will be sold at consignment, or donated. Moving (still need to find a place, plan to move in April) Also need to start meal/menu planning, and a more organized grocery list. Plus, a huge budget overhaul is necessary for the move. I still work full time out of the house, owning and maintaining this blog, I am co owner of Two Busy Mommies On The Go! (My Freebie Christmas 2009 is coming soon) And I am a contributer for Posh Point of View.


This will be a day to day, one step at a time learning event, 365 days long. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and sharing great tips, products and ideas.

Stay tuned through 2009 and check out all the wonderful sponsors aiming to find us busy parents an extra minute for ourselves. Product Reviews, Giveaways and much much more is in store for everyone! Don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss a thing!

Once again, welcome to A Busy Mommy On The Go! The New Life, and thanks for joining me.

Shopping For Wedding Bands

While hunting for great online deals this Boxing Day, I discovered a great jewelry website. Are you hunting for the perfect wedding band? Well, you should definitely check these out!! At TitaniumStyle.com they have beautiful titanium wedding bands and Tungsten wedding bands that I'm sure you and your hubby-to-be will be drooling over!! But you wont only find wedding bands there, they have beautiful titanium bracelets, and titanium necklace, crosses and more!

With a lifetime warranty on all titanium, tungsten carbide and ceramic jewelry against defects, breakage or bending, denting and noticeable deformation, you really can't go wrong!! Not only would you be receiving a beautiful piece of jewelry, but also the comfort in knowing that it will be taken care of if need be.

Below you'll find a picture of my favorite titanium rings.
I have to say, titaniumstyle.com has got to be one of the easiest sites to search. Their entire selection is categorized for easy selection and browsing. You will also find easy to read explanations as to how precious metals are graded, and what "carat" actually means. I enjoyed reading these and can now say I know just a little bit more about what I'm buying when I purchase precious metals!

Photo and video editing at www.OneTrueMedia.com

I was recently asked to check out OneTrueMedia, and I have to say, that this is definitely how I will be sharing our Holiday Memories this year!

A Contest that would change my life

I would soooooo love to win this contest. I know I haven't been reporting a lot of contest lately, but this is one I just couldn't pass by.

Stop, Drop & Blog is one of 50 blogs hosting a giveaway for a HP Microsoft package valued at $6000!!! Yep, you read that right! $6000.

So here I am to tell you why I would love to win this!!

As A Busy Mommy On The Go, I am continuously working, mommy-ing, and blogging! (Left out cooking and cleaning, as those things seem to not get done anyway!) Every morning I get up, and flip the switch to turn on the old PC (not that old, but takes about 5 minutes to load up) As soon as I sit down in front of it to log into twitter and check my emails (have I mentioned how much I love tabbed browsers) , Ben runs up...he wants his turn on the computer. So, I quickly check my emails, say good morning to twitter world, and give Ben a turn. (Gotta pick your battles folks) I start the washer, (probably for the second time as the last load never made it to the dryer) and putter around picking up toys and food until Ben gets tired of playing Mario. Then, while he's distracted by a TV show, or one of his millions of toys, I sneak back onto the computer in hopes that my clicking wont draw his attention. (He's usually over within seconds wanting another turn)

Winning this prize package would save me so much time, To have a computer that is MOMMIES would be wonderful. A just for me kinda thing. So hey Santa, if your reading this, put in a good word for me!

This contest will close December 16th - Thats tomorrow folks so get your entry in now!

Manic Monday

Well, today is Monday, and I have now coined it Manic Monday. Here is my Manic Monday Story.

I am supposed to be catering a Woman's Business Owners Group Christmas Party tomorrow, and I had plans to do all the baking myself. Well, so far, I have been given no confirmation and no final head count. Baking everything is now out of the question. I have called and all I get is excuses as to why they don't have a menu for me, well very soon, their going to have no food at their party. I can't make 3 Black Forrest Cakes and 3 different kinds of squares between now and tomorrow evening when I haven't even started shopping yet, and I have to work tonight. (No oven at work) So now, I'm going to have to bring myself to buy store bought squares and cakes. I can still make all the sandwiches by hand, and the fruit and veggie trays. They don't take up too much time. But damn. I acted very professional throught this whole process, I had a menu to them more than 2 weeks ago, all they had to do was choose how many of each item they wanted and send it back to me, how hard is that!!!

Anyway, my Manic Monday is going to flow right into "Tips On Tuesday"

Do you have a Manic Monday Post?? As soon as I figure out how to use Mr. Linky, feel free to post a link to your Manic Monday Post. (Add a link to the comments for now if you want) I'm working on Mr. Linky now!

The End/Beginning of a Busy Week

Well folks,

Today is Sunday. Depending on your schedule, its the end of the week, to others its the beginning of the week. As the title suggests, it's been a busy one for me. I've worked (out of the home) every day. And I don't have a day off until Friday next! My mom and dh have from the 20th to the 27th off. Not me though, actually, my only real day off between now and Christmas Eve is Friday. I may have to beg for a day somewhere. I make the schedule, but it's pretty set, we don't alter it around too much unless its really needed.

Sorry I've been a little scarce this week, time escapes me with all the hustle and bustle of Christmas. Shopping and parties, late night gift wrapping sessions. We trimmed out tree late last night. I have some great pics and videos, they need a bit of editing so I'll post them in a couple days. I am currently trying out what seems to be a great online resource for picture lovers! OneTrueMedia. I'll post a review in the next couple days! You can sign up for a free account! Send me a link to your production and I'll check yours out too!!

Ben has been going through sookie withdraw. I waited way to long to get rid of his soother. Any new moms out there, get rid of the soother by the time their 2, the longer you wait, the harder it is. We couldn't find a sookie Monday night, and we are really tired of looking for them all the time, so I finally said, your to old now, no more sookies. He was really upset, he's had one since he came home from the hospital, and he's a little more than 3.5 now. He has a security blanket as well, and I promised him I would never take that away from him. ( we used to call him Linus, he doesn't drag it everywhere anymore, just mostly if he's upset or going to bed) The hard part of all this is that it's very difficult for him to fall asleep. For the last week he hasn't been falling asleep until midnight or one, and then sleeping in quite late. He got up at 11am this morning.
Hopefully he'll get past it quickly, he only asks for it once at bedtime, I just tell him "no, sweetie" and he doesn't ask again. He is struggling to fall asleep, as its all new to him. He has to learn how to fall asleep all over again. Sorry sweetie, that's Mommies fault.

My Beautiful Christmas

That's it folks, Christmas is here! I have almost finished my shopping and most of my evenings are dedicated to Christmas Movies, Get-togethers or, if by chance my evening isn't claimed by family and friends, I stay up into the wee hours of the morning wrapping presents and stocking-stuffers while munching on chocolates and sipping on Egg Nog.

How many hours have I spent decorating the house, putting up Christmas trees, Setting up the lights outside. Very hard for A Busy Mommy to get all that work done. Time is a valuable commodity to this Busy Mommy and when I find a great product or service that saves me time, I take full advantage of it! For this holiday season, a great time saver for me is 1-800-Flowers. 1-800-Flowers is a great way to get all your floral arrangements delivered right to your door. A few minutes on the computer, checking out their amazing Holiday selection is all it takes. Done!! They have a wonderful selection of Centerpieces and lots of great gift ideas for those hard to buy for people! You'll find some great Martha Stewart products as well, You can't beat that! Oh wait, you can...Right now you'll find some specially marked item at 30% off. Now that, you really can't beat!

I've placed my 1-800-flowers Holiday order, and I am looking forward to it's arrival. My Holiday Dinner table will be nothing but beautiful with Fresh Flowers as the centerpiece!

Happy Holidays!

My Crazy Weekend!

OMgosh!! It has been one of those weekends!!

Friday night was supposed to be a quick trip to the city to hit Toys R Us, that quick trip turned into 4 hours of a rotten night! First of all, we're looking for Mouse Trap. You know that really fun kids game that you can never find during the holidays. Well, we can't find it! We drove an hour each way to look in the city, and no store (that we checked) had it in. So we leave the mall, slightly dissapointed, and head off to get something to eat. I was craving some real food, and wanted to go to a sit down restaurant. DH, drove right to McDonalds. (I soo did not want McDonalds, but we were all in a pissy mood by then so I didn't say anything) So I ate my Big Mac and tried to talk DS into eating his cheeseburger, but he was to interested in everything going on around him.

So, we leave McDonalds and while I was in the parking lot (standing outside of the car) I called my Mom. I wanted to let he know we were on our way home. So, I say good bye, set my phone on the roof of the car, jump in and drive away. Yup, you read that right. I drove away with my cell phone on the roof of the car. About 10 minutes down the highway, I want to make a phone call. Guess What! No Freekin Phone!! So, U-Turn on the highway, and hightail it back to Dartmouth McDonalds to see if my phone is by chance still laying in the parking lot. I jumped out of the car, with DH's cell in hand dialing the number to see if I hear it ring, and as I'm looking down, I spot it! Yay!! it's still there, with Tire marks on it. :-(

Now, I have to say, Nokia made a great phone with the MusicExpress. It's so thin, that when the car drove over it, it didn't break. I can still call and text, the MP3 player still works fine as well. But the camera is no longer. A shame cause the phones are only a couple months old, and I highly doubt that my warrenty covered being run over by an Aveo.

That was Friday.

Saturday was an OK day, but very busy. I was trying to get all my jewelry together for the flea market. Made some business cards (they came out really pretty) and I had to work t'boot. With Ben in toe, we head of to work for 4:00pm, (DH picks him up at 6pm). I settled Ben in front of the laptop with his new Sonic DVD. And I set out to cut out my newly printed business cards. I created my business cards on a website that escapes me now. I'll edit this later to give the website. Anyway, I pull out my brand new scalpel and start cutting out my business cards. My left pointer finger mysteriously positions itself in the direct path of the razor sharp blade and I am now sporting a band aid. I'm still waiting for it to hurt. The blade was so freakin sharp that I never felt it cut me, but I took a good chunk out.

Now it's Sunday.

I got up at 4:30am, (I am soo not a morning person) cause Ben thought it would be the perfect time to get up and want a bed time snack?? He was obviously not going back to sleep, so I just got up. I had to be at the fire hall at 7am for the flea market. So, I go out in the freezing cold, an hour and a half before the sun gets up to sell my pretty earrings and It was the quietest flea market I've ever gone to. I shouldn't complain too much as I did have a few sales, I paid my table fee and, bought a couple things myself and came home with a little extra, I guess I was hoping for a little more. Oh well. I'm not doing another market before Christmas, they're isn't enough time.
I've been at work since 2pm and will be here until 10ish. It's looking like a it's gonna be a lonely night so maybe I'll get some work done.

To catch eveyone up

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am still here. It's been a little while since I've posted and I need to fill everyone in on what's been going on.

I think the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways have come to an end a few days short. Do to lack of sponsorship, (and a huge lack of time) I wont continue with the giveaways this week. I wanted to give a huge thank you to all my sponsors who are all still listed in the right hand sidebar! Please check them out for your Holiday Shopping!

I've been working very hard, making earrings, bracelets and necklaces. Simple & Classy is slowly getting off the ground with some great word of mouth sales in my area. I'm still waiting for my first etsy sale, and there are a few giveaways the near future being hosted by some of my very favorite bloggers. There is one on right now that ends tonight, get your entry in before it's over!! Check it out here. Ends in less than 2 hours!

I am taking Simple & Classy to a craft fair on Sunday, lots of work still left to do for that as well. I can't wait, and I have my fingers crossed for a great sales day. My prices are very affordable, so definite stocking stuffer potential. Wish me luck!

Check out my etsy site, and mention this post for free shipping!

Also, It's December. I have 2 parties that I am working and need to cater. I just finished and submitted my menu's for approval (budget stuff) and I am waiting to hear back. Christmas is coming so fast, and I have so much still to do that time is scarce. I'm working as many shifts as I can this week as it's my last pay before Christmas.

I have a few other blogger projects on the go as well, I will make them more known to everyone in the new year.

I just wanted to say thanks to all my faithful readers and all my great sponsors! You give me a reason to be here!
