Career and Kids

Career and Kids 2.0

Well, hi there. Happy New Year!

I’m not Mike. I guess you noticed that by now. Of course.

He’s taller than I am n’ stuff, so it’s obvious. But, people do get us confused sometimes, so don’t feel bad.

So, I have been given the honor of following Mike here at Career and Kids, since he chose to concentrate on Be a Good Dad. I have enjoyed reading during his time here, and, I hope I can make him proud and carry on the tradition he has begun.

Thanks for all your work, Mike, and, I hope you’ll come by and see us.

Anyway, my name is Elizabeth. (Hi, Elizabeth!).

I am the proud author of b5 Media’s GenBetween where I blog about being in the Sandwich Generation, and, I am also exposing myself (not like that, silly) as the author of Busymom.net. Yes, that one is several minutes of your life that you won’t get back, I know, but, I keep doing it, anyway.

So, what makes me qualified to be here at Career and Kids? I suppose because I meet both requirements of the title.

I am a married mother of 3 school-age children, and, both my husband and I work full-time outside the home.

No, I’m not positive about the proper way to say that, so I hope I haven’t offended anyone. I just mean that we both have to put on decent shoes, drive in rush hour every morning, sit at a desk, and, get a paycheck once a month.

I know it used to be a guy’s perspective here, and, I’m sensitive to that. Though I’m not a guy, I do want to make sure I look at things from a working parent’s perspective, I don’t want to make it just another working mom blog.

I’m not an authority on having a career and children, but, I do it every day, and, I look forward to sharing my experiences with you, and, I hope we can all learn from each other.

While I get settled in here, please let me know what you’d like to see covered around here, I welcome all suggestions.
