I'm Rockin' my Mom Genes

This is a blog reborn. Once upon a time I was a childless thirty-something living in NYC with my husband spending my (copious amounts of) free time drinking beer at neighborhood bars, going to brunch on Sunday mornings, scrolling through social media while drinking a hot cup of coffee, and blogging.

Let's fast forward a few years...

I am now a forty-something mama of two girls, ages 5 and 2, living in a small beach town on the eastern end of Long Island. I spend my (limited) free time doing laundry, taking care of household business, picking up endless amounts of toys, and scrolling through social media on the downlow (lest my children see me and demand to watch Baby Shark for the five billionth time), and drinking lukewarm cups of coffee while trying to pack lunches and get children dressed.

But I still enjoy the idea of blogging. So I resurrected this old girl. Once a blog called Felisfemina where I mused about life in the city, music, and my cats it is now where I will rock my mom genes. I'll talk about mom life and all the joys that go with it (should I start with the tale of my toddler puking all over herself on the Grand Central Parkway on our way to the airport at 7am? Maybe not). I'll talk about health and wellness and self-care, an area that so many moms neglect but one that is critical for us if we want to be able to function on a daily basis and maybe even live a happy, fulfilling life. I'll talk about style and fashion because I love that shit and I don't get to have enough of it in my life (she says as she sits here typing in her Old Navy jeggings and worn out pullover). 

And I will, without a doubt, sometimes complain, often curse, and still talk about my cats.
