I gave up the idea of "having it all" when I was 35. I was single, never thought I would get married - let alone have a family one day. My career was going great, I was exercising and maintaining my perfect body, going out with my girlfriends, traveling the world and fixing up my house.

Flash forward to 2010 and I am married (5 years), have a 4 year old son and a successful career. My perfect body has long since left me, I still want to see the world, grow my career, enrich my relationship with my husband, raise my son to be a great man and make my home look and feel like Martha Stewart was just there. I spend a majority of my time "striving 2 B supermom" which means I am trying to find a way to juggle a career, marriage and family and maintain some level of sanity!

Is it really possible to "have it all"? Most days are full of laughs, stress, craziness and some fun, but it's overwhelming to try to fit everything in before bedtime. This is my world - my daily strive to become "supermom". It's a combination of my stress, happiness, shortcuts and planning that help me get through the week. This is for all you gals "striving 2 B supermom" too!

Scary Steps Towards the Future!

I am taking more steps towards making my new business a reality. This week I officially filed paperwork to make my company an LLC. I also got my EIN # through the state. I also just registered my domain name for my website (piccolodesigns)and ordered a website template too (through Blu Domain). I can't believe I am really on my way!

This is all a bit scary. I feel like now I HAVE to really make this a success. For the next several months I will spend all my free time working on my website content and designs. My goal is to have the website up for business by fall.

Am I crazy? I still don't know how I can "do it all" while starting a business too. I don't want my full time job or family to suffer with me overextending myself. I know in the end that this a long term goal for me and it won't happen over night. I hope by the time my son is ready for school I can leave corporate America and run my business and be a mom. That's ambitious.....I have about 17 months. I know my goal may actually be a "stretch goal", but it doesn't hurt to try - right?
