Lately, I’ve been feeling a little more Mommy Guilt than usual. Aside from the blog that I keep promising to update more frequently, I’m writing for a living. I’m learning as I go, and articles that should take an hour end up taking 3 because I can only focus on the computer in 15 minute bursts between, “Mommy look at this.” or “Come snuggle me on the couch.” I can never say no, so the computer sits open for much of the day. My fear is that my daughter is growing up feeling like she has to compete for my attention with a tiny MacBook Air. I’ve tried going to bed when she does, and getting up at 4 or 5am to write, but somehow she senses it, and wakes up!
As a single, stay at home mom, my question to other bloggers and writers is, how can I work at home effectively, without making V feel like the computer is getting too much attention?
Oh, and I also want 40 minutes on my yoga mat without being climbed on.

I'm still a rookie and somehow missed your comment. Sorry. I know you're not updating your blog right now, but I wanted to let you know that I'm thinking about you. I hope your health has improved.
I’m late! I’m late! I’m stopping by from the UBP13. I hope you stop by our party for a slice of warm banana bread and cold milk.
