My life as a ‘working mother’ is not something that I talk about half as much as I’d like on my blog. Naturally it comes up from time to time, but to give it the same amount of focus that it has in my real life, well… I think my corporate job would bore the pants of half of you and make the other half cringe at my ‘working for the man’ status. Well, maybe one or two of you might be interested… so I’ve blogged over at the Careermums.com.au blog about my theories on ‘work life intergration’.
It’s not about the balance, baby, it’s about the seamless integration.
Do pop over and see me there. I don’t think they get as many passers by as they deserve. It’s a really fantastic blog for women working in the home, outside the home and on the home. Time management, prioritising, goal setting, writing stuff down… see, we are all working mothers at the end of the day.

Yes, this is totally a subject I don’t discuss too much on my blog – more like over the water cooler or coffee cart at work, at the park with other mums, with my girlfriends over a glass of wine, to my husband, on comments on other blogs..sometimes I feel like it’s my life’s mission to try and find out how to get the life/work balance right or if anyone has got it figured out – it is one of the greatest unanswered questions of my time…and it does my head in sometimes…so I try and reserve my blog as a holiday from that frantic ‘head space’ and just a space that I can recall the happiest of memories which can sometimes be… just the everyday, a few photos, a crafty project, reflections or poking fun (mostly at myself) and making light.
Now off to check out careermums!

I so needed to read that today…thanks a bundle.
I’m off to finish the last 500words of an article with a little more patience than I had earlier.
Thankfully distraction paid off this time. x

I often think there is so much of our life that isn’t shared on our blogs.
Just goes to show, there’s more to us than meets the blog 😉
Off to visit you there… xx

I’m prepared to be bored, not an ounce of corporate going on here so would be fascinating to hear how it all works for you.
