	Mommy Musings – Empowering Adjectives Transitioning from my Reporter role at the Oakdale Leader was necessary in my life for a number of reasons. The one most at the core were my children. I knew I needed to work full-time. I knew I needed to stay local, but I desperately needed flexibility. » Read More Posted: Mar. 27, 2013 1:41 p.m. \| 0 Comments

	Mommy Musings – Guilt Free Mommy There are a number of things I thoroughly enjoy about being a parent. Many of them I have the pleasure of being able to share here, with our readers. Among my ‘favorite’ things in the way of living with children, would be their innate ability to point things out which adults may give little thought to. I am of the belief that children not only pay attention, but understand ... » Read More Posted: Feb. 19, 2013 4:49 p.m. \| Updated: Feb. 20, 2013 6:00 a.m. \| 0 Comments
	Mommy Musings – Proper Usage of Tools Generally speaking, I’m an analytical type. More simply put, I think too much. Personally, I think it’s inherent with becoming a mommy; however I have many male friends who struggle with the same topic. It’s a two part problem for me, as I wake at 3 a.m. to recount what day it is and what I need to remember to stuff in my children’s backpacks to which activity or ... » Read More Posted: Feb. 12, 2013 4:42 p.m. \| Updated: Feb. 13, 2013 6:00 a.m. \| 0 Comments
	Mommy Musings – No ‘ing’ In Sportsmanship It’s barely February and yet here I find myself, penning yet another ‘sports related’ column. Truth be told there was a time when new sports reporters passed through our office on a routine basis. During that period I thought it might be fun to maybe ‘switch it up’ and actually approached Editor Marg Jackson with a proposal of possibly getting my feet wet in the Sports section. Much to ... » Read More Posted: Jan. 30, 2013 10:08 a.m. \| 0 Comments
	Mommy Musings - Holidays At The DMV My month of December was not dissimilar from most of our readers. It was packed full of parties, shopping, holiday tradition and even a little quality family time. » Read More Posted: Jan. 23, 2013 12:23 a.m. \| 0 Comments
	Mommy Musings – What Awaits You It’s been a few weeks since I’ve forced my mind to share some thoughts. Truthfully we all need a reprieve on occasion and as the only staffer who does this weekly, there does come a point where I too must take a break. » Read More Posted: Jan. 15, 2013 10:22 p.m. \| Updated: Jan. 16, 2013 1:00 a.m. \| 0 Comments
	Mommy Musings - We Made It We survived. If you’re reading this, then the world indeed did not end. Or perhaps it did and now you and I are left with the cockroaches to figure out what’s next. Chances are, however, both are highly unlikely, not to mention improbable. I am no scientist, but after living through the let down of the Y2K hype I consider myself ‘experienced’ in such silliness. Of ... » Read More Posted: Dec. 26, 2012 2:44 p.m. \| 0 Comments
	Mommy Musings - More Than A Small ‘Cow’ Town Another season has been wrapped up. This year marks one that dreams are made of, for many of this town’s young men and their families. The 2012 Oakdale Mustang football season will now live on in the history books as well as the memories of all who will say ‘I remember when.’ » Read More Posted: Dec. 18, 2012 11:40 p.m. \| Updated: Dec. 19, 2012 1:00 a.m. \| 0 Comments

	Mommy Musings – Kids, Politics And Responsibility I honestly don’t remember when I first gained an interest in politics. In a column a few weeks back I candidly shared my interests were pretty typical ‘girly’ in my formative years (i.e.: music and teen heartthrobs). » Read More Posted: Nov. 13, 2012 11:39 p.m. \| Updated: Nov. 14, 2012 1:00 a.m. \| 0 Comments
