Hello Milwaukee Moms! I am really excited to start a new blog on a site that is devoted to motherhood -- the good, the bad, and the ugly. In a former life, I was a practicing attorney, but now I am a full-time, suburban-living, 40-something mom to a daughter and a stepdaughter, the former in elementary school and the latter in high school.
Without really knowing much about blogs, I started blogging almost three years ago at BrookfieldNow. Some of you may have read my blog, Brookfield Wannabe. It's been a great experience. Although my first blog didn't start out as a "Mommy Blog," I've found that some of my most popular posts are ones dealing with my family. I thought it would be fun to start a new blog where I could in indulge in sharing more of my family's antics, and voila, here I am.
I'm hoping to keep the content of the blogs different, so I hope you will visit and enjoy both of them.
I am going to repeat something today, though. It has to do with the title of my new blog -- Pizazz.
I really struggled with coming up with a title. You know how it is. You try to be funny, witty, clever, etc., and you just come off sounding...well... stupid. But then I had an inspiration.
Pizazz is defined as dazzling style, flamboyance or flair. It is also defined as vigorous, spirit, energy or excitement.
It is something that my daughter thinks I LACK, as witnessed by this little exchange. You see what I'm dealing with.
So, join me in my search of "pizazz" while doing the ordinary things that moms do.
