About me, the author to this entire blog!

Welcome to the More Than a mom blog! Here you'll find fun and quirky articles on a variety of topics. From meal prep (no long story straight to the point!) to helpful financial tips, exciting travel adventures, and even workout inspiration, we've got you covered. So grab a cup of coffee and enjoy our latest blog post!

The purpose of this blog is to find things that we do outside of being a mom, and just for women in general! This is suppose to be a fun blog. There are times where I may get serious but trust me when I say, I always have some kind of humor in my life. I am not sure if that is a bad thing or a good thing.

I am a 35 year old women who is a wife, mother, sister, friend, and much more. Right when I turned 35 I realized I have given up on ME. Who I am personally. I always try to be there for my family first, and those around me. I had put myself last, very last, I mean like the last of the last place! I didn't think I had lost myself that much but I truly did.

See I use to have a business that took up all of my time along with working a second job. Second job?? YES! As crazy as it sounds I had to take that job to get my children into a certain school. I was handling everything fine, sure I was busy, overwhelmed and didn't have a lot of time with my kids but I truly thought I was doing the right thing. Eventually my husband and I were burnt out. We shut the business down and I no longer had the second job. I then went to work for a friend for a year and decided that I would give it a go with helping my husband with his new business. Come to find out him and I both were not on the same page. I stepped back from that and have been a SAHM for about a year and a half now.

A day before my 35th birthday I was tired of not being me, I was tired of not knowing what direction to go. Not having a career, and not knowing my future like I have always have seen in the past. Honestly I have never been here, not seeing the future. It is truly scary but I think it is something that I had to go through. I have became more humble, I truly thought I was a humble person but OOOOOHHHHH MAN was I wrong.

I have been doing a lot of research on blogging and something keeps telling me to give it a try. Who knows I may help someone, whether your a working mom, a stay at home mom or just a woman who finds my things interesting. I hope as the times go on this blog will help others and become a place for all types of women to come to.

From your new humbled blogger,

Just a mother looking for her new me and start.
