I was trying to edit a quick vid and Rex had rightly had enough of “Mike the Knight”.
“I’m almost done Rex”
My mom told me I could be creative as a mom as long as I could handle interuptions. She didn’t mention the jungle gym part.
But, even when he is pulling my his little hand covering my face I sigh. I love his little hands.
Best “momhandling”. 
Working from home. Hard.
I love me some Heather Spohr of Spohr’s are multiplying fame. Aside from being a dear person who I have sought counsel from before, she is an established mom blogger. She has been at this a long time and I wanted to ask her about something I had been struggling with in this being-creative-working-at-home thing. One of the most unexpected bonuses of entering this blog/vlog world has been the friendships I have made with other woman. Often first knowing them online before knowing them in the flesh.
We met mid day between our two homes on a lovely sunny day. Our studio for this shoot was my Lexis hybrid. I had forgotten the clamp so I couldn’t use my camera light–ugh.. so my crows feet will be readily featured. It would have been very dark had Heather not said, “open up the sun roof”. Smart! Not Oprah lighting, but this is guerilla vlogging.
Where else can two mom’s talk without being interrupted but a car anyway? Well, unless I got side by side toilets and lock on the door!
This is how desperate I get for light conversation with an adult: I watch my own vlogs for company. Hey, it’s someone I agree with! But it’s not just moms who find working from home a tad lonely.
My friend Heather produces the Dr. Dean Edell show (my old job) from her apartment in San Francisco. But she is a social animal. She thinks work parties are fun, so it’s a crime that she no longer partakes in that. Not to mention all the cute outfits she doesn’t put together and because there are no people to compliment her on it. We have “The Office” to show the tedium of work life, but since we are social creatures, there are worse fates than making fun of your boss.
Who do you chat with at home?
