Me, a lifestyle expert? Heck yeah.. keep reading for tips to decorate on a dime!

Okay- so let me give you a little background about me, the short version; I married a doctor 15 years older than me... no you didn't read that wrong. At 25 years old, I was thinking more along the lines of future long-term financial security and it didn't hurt that I thought he was devastatingly handsome-it kept my mother quiet, I was clearly intoxicated by the fact that this guy would be obligated to check every suspicious mole on body- and give me regular breast examinations.

 So we sailed off into the sunset- in our M.D. license-plated 1995 Honda Accord.  Well- to give you a bit of perspective- 10 years later well we're still driving that Honda, and then a year ago my nice doctor husband told me he'd rather drive a stake through his heart than see another patient, (okay I'm using a bit of poetic license here- because his admission had far less dramatic flair, but you get the gist). So like any good wife- I told him- our marriage and relationship was not predicated on his M.D. status and that ultimately being that I never lived the rock star doctor's wife lifestyle-- you know - convertible BMW, lunching with the ladies- mani-pedis on a bi-weekly basis- shopping at Coach-- that his "profession" wasn't all that important to me.

Still it's been a bit of an adjustment... especially when acquaintances accost me with statements like; OH my G-d if my husband ever decided he didn't want to be a doctor I would divorce him! Or my mother's recation and insistence that she will not be telling any of her friends about this CATASTROPHIC event. (NO this time I'm not exaggerating!)

So when Beth, the infamous Role mommy herself- asked me to be the Lifestyle Editor for the site- I though- this could possibly be the perfect opportunity for me to find and share ideas that us real moms in the trenches- the ones who are not shopping on Madison Avenue, downing martinis at lunch- rather sipping the last dregs of our kids' juice boxes (we hate wasting a perfectly good fruit punch) and looking for ways to cut costs but still reveling in life's little luxuries-- (I can really whoop it up in those $1 bins at Target) could ACTUALLY use!.

To kick off my inaugural first lifestyle post the amazing folks at Nouvelles Images, which produces the non-toxic pretty fabulous paper wall Homestickers which come in an array of themes for any age from whimsical forest creatures to colorful underwater life designs and will brighten your children's rooms and illuminate their imaginations without breaking the bank-- are giving one lucky reader these stickers for FREE. These are featured.

 

But really the best part about these Nouvelles Images' Children's Homestickers is that they're non-toxic, easily applied and removed,  only cost $30, and allow kids' ever changing interests (last week my daughter was all about Hannah Montana- and now it's strictly Selena Gomez)  to be reflected in the design of their rooms as often as they choose. They're available on Amazon.com, AllPosters.com and ChangeYourWalls.com.

 

 

To enter to win your very own set--leave a comment about which design is your favorite. Feel free to leave any random musings too--I'm always up for some commiseration, gossip and girl talk! And to score another entry you can tweet about this giveaway too!

 

Giveaway only open to those with U.S. addresses. Giveaway ends on Monday July 6th at 11:59 Eastern Standard Time. On Tuesday July 7th Random.org will select one winner, and I'll email them and announce it immediately.  Good luck!

On the Road with Role Mommy

Take a tour of Manhattan with Role Mommy behind the wheel of the 2009 Nissan Murano. In this three part video we share all the cool things we discovered during our test drive, plus our favorite landmarks along the West Side Highway, a trip down memory lane, road trip essentials and much more. Plus, if you're in the market for a car, we tell you everything there is to know about the brand spankin' new Nissan Murano.

As my Grandma Dora used to say, "What's not to love?" (shrug shoulders while uttering this phrase).

Where Oh Where Has My Little Girl Gone?

So my daughter has been at sleepaway camp for a little over 24 hours and I am suffering from full blown withdrawal. I keep visiting her camp website hoping they've posted some more photos of all the campers, but every time I click through the 30 plus pages, I've only managed to see her in two group shots (and there are already more than 400 pictures up on that site so far!) My usually candid social butterfly is nowhere to be found! I mean, I noticed the little girl she boarded the bus with, but my Becca is MIA.

Could it be she's been crying for hours and they don't want me to see her all puffy and sad? Or maybe, she's so busy writing us letters that the photographer wasn't able to capture that perfect shot to show us that she's doing just fine. I have to say though, if I don't see a photo of her soon I may be emailing that camp to at least have them send out a smoke signal to verify that a) she arrived safely and b) she's having a great time.

Meanwhile, I've already written her about 10 letters since she's left (I know it's only been 1 day), and I stuffed 8 notes in her bag and mailed one out to her this morning. Something tells me that by the time she gets back I will be publishing a new book entitled "Letters to Becca...the summer I lost my mind missing my daughter."

In the meantime, my son is having the time of his life - he's officially an only child for four weeks and he couldn't be happier. Right now he's with his dad in the park and earlier this evening, he played the Wii and used my computer without anyone fighting him to get off and give them a turn. The only downside of his sister being gone is that her kitten has gotten even more psychotic (as if that were possible). None of us can stay in the same room with Hazel because if we do, she pounces on us when we least expect it, bites at our extremities and claws us until we have to banish her to the basement. And my poor son was gauged in the face when she leaped out of thin air and landed right on his cheek. Oh, and let's not forget about yesterday when she came careening off the 2nd floor landing into a glass vase that shattered all over the floor. And guess who had the great fortune of cleaning it up. She wrote the essay you're reading right now. Mystery solved.

Time to hit the road so I can figure out what I'm going to write in my next letter to Becca. Better yet, maybe I'll check the website again for photos. You never know when my daughter will finally realize she's got to throw herself in front of the camera so that her parents know she's doing just fine.

Welcome to Pet Central

Here at Role Mommy, we're becoming quite the zoo - welcoming into our home a brand new kitten named Hazel (we fondly refer to her as "Weasel"), two new hermit crabs, and a lizard who sadly, croaked after succumbing to one too many crickets that had been deposited into its expensive tank for feeding (for anyone planning to purchase a lizard, here's a quick tip: you're supposed to give a lizard 5 crickets, not 15 at one feeding).

Thankfully, there haven't been any more casualties in our home due to excessive feeding. And while I normally do reviews of products and services for kids and families, imagine my surprise when the PR team for K9 Cuisine, a line of pet food and treats for dogs and cats (but not lizards) reached out to me to see if we were interested in sampling their healthy and playful fare. After a quick consult with Rudy and Hazel, they were totally down with it.

And so, a few weeks ago, a big box of goodies arrived for the finicky duo. They were ecstatic since normally when boxes arrive, it's usually groceries from Fresh Direct, camp clothes for my daughter or a DVD from Netflix. The cats and I tore through the box and uncovered a treasure trove of goodies - from wet food, to catnip toys, to healthy dry food, pet supplements, you name it, it was in there.

Over the last month, I've discovered that the cats particularly love the dry food. In fact, if I leave the pantry door open for too long, they'll climb inside and paw at the bag until it tumbles off the shelf and deposits a few morsels of food on my wood floor. I have no idea why it's so tasty, nor will I be sampling it anytime soon, but Rudy and Hazel are big fans of Core dry food. Plus, Rudy is also quite fond of the catnip toy and luckily, Hazel hasn't discovered what it is exactly or else our psychotic kitten will be bouncing off the walls.

If you'd like to find out more about the pet food products offered at K9 Cuisine, then visit their website. The cool thing is, you can buy them in stores or order online if you run out of your pet's favorite dish. Time to bolt...have to feed the hermit crabs!

Get in Shape with The Mojo Coach!

In our never ending quest to lose "the last 10 pounds" we're pleased to announce a brand new contributor to Role Mommy and our blog, The Girdle Chronicles, dietician, fitness guru, best-selling author and whole health coach, Debi Silber...better known as The Mojo Coach!

Today, Debi is tackling a topic that I struggle with all the time. What is the perfect workout that will get me motivated to burn calories and lose weight!

What does your perfect workout mean? Is it a stroll in the park, taking a class, a rigorous hour of tennis, or using the Stairmaster during your favorite TV show? Maybe it means focusing on your breath in a yoga class, stretching your muscles with Pilates or running to your favorite songs. While any of these workouts benefit your body, mind and soul, many moms don't exercise at all. In fact, the only exercise their getting is when they exercise their right...not to exercise.

If this sounds like you, it's time to find your perfect workout. But what if you haven't worked out in weeks, months, even years? What matters is that you find something that you can enjoy. What also matters is that you begin at a level that's only slightly more challenging than what you feel you can do. This way, you don't scare yourself off from beginning and sticking with a new routine. It's also a great way to build confidence in yourself. By setting a goal that's reasonable, then achieving that goal, you gain the confidence to keep trying. It's an empowering feeling to take back the reins and know that your fitness, health and priorities are up to you.

Now like many moms, let's say you haven't exercised in an embarrassingly long time. You're never ending to-do list got the best of you and the only way you could get everything done was by cutting your own self care right off your list. So unfortunately, your exercise was one of the first things to go. This may have worked for a while but at some point, you began to feel sluggish, lethargic and unfit. Maybe you noticed that your clothes weren't fitting as well as they used to. You may have realized that while you used to sprint up the steps, now you're huffing and puffing as you near the top. Whatever caused you to see that you need exercise in your life doesn't matter, as long as you use that information to get going. So, where do you begin?

You can always start with walking. You know how to do it, you don't need to be exceptionally coordinated and all you need is a properly fitting pair of walking shoes. Just by getting outside, looking at the changing leaves or noticing the beauty that surrounds you may be enough to keep you motivated to walk. If that's not enough, you can bring an ipod or MP3 player to listen to your favorite music. There are also some great services which enable you to download workouts according to your workout level and needs. You can even download podcasts of programs you enjoy or just use the time as an opportunity to clear your head.

Now it doesn't matter if you work outside the home, have a newborn, whatever. You can justify or make excuses for anything you don't want to do. The idea is to find a way to get it done so you can feel good again. For example, if you leave early in the morning and head off to work, you can have a gym bag packed and head to the gym before you come home. If you feel too guilty to try it maybe realizing that the happier mom is, the better she is for everyone else is enough to change your mind. You can also try exercising during your lunch break, taking a short walking break every hour or find an exercise buddy you can walk with and be accountable to.

If you have young children, there are some other strategies you may want to try. Get on that treadmill in your home, use tapes, DVD's or just tune into your local exercise channel. Just simply put your baby in an area safely nearby. Your baby may even get a real kick out of watching his or her mommy working out. If not, he or she can use the time to sleep, snack or play. If your children are a little older, give them a special activity that they only get to do while mommy works out. They'll look forward to the activity while you get your workout in.

If you want to workout outside, there are great exercise joggers that allow you to walk, jog or run with your child safely strapped in. You can also wear your baby in a Baby Bjorn or baby backpack. This adds weighted resistance to your workout while taking away any excuse you may have! Your baby will also love the special time feeling close to you while getting some fresh air. Another option is to join a class for moms and their kids. If that doesn't work for you, many health clubs offer babysitting for a small fee. Lastly, you can hire a babysitter or find a friend that is willing to take turns babysitting each others children so you can both make the time for much needed self care.

It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you do something. The key is to find a way to incorporate exercise back into your life. If you do nothing now and exercise for fifteen minutes tomorrow, you're moving in the right direction. What's most important is that you give your body, mind and soul what it so rightfully deserves. And as you begin to feel better about your body and your commitment to take better care of yourself, your body will kindly respond by slowly getting back to being the finely tuned machine it had been long ago. Then at some point, you may see the beauty in you that everyone else does.

A Tribute to Farrah Fawcett

June 25, 2009 is going to go down as one of the saddest in celebrity history. Earlier today, we learned that actress and mom Farrah Fawcett died after a courageous battle with anal cancer. And a few hours later, we learned that Michael Jackson died of cardiac arrest.

While most news outlets are currently devoting their coverage to Jackson (which is incredibly tragic), we'd like to pay tribute to Fawcett, who shared her battle with the deadly disease in a heart wrenching NBC documentary that left viewers with a lasting legacy of this incredibly brave mother, lifelong companion, devoted friend and Role Mommy. 20/20 will air a Barbara Walters special tonight featuring an exclusive interview with Ryan O'Neal and Alana Stewart, and earlier this evening, Katie Couric paid tribute to Farrah Fawcett on the CBS Evening News. In case you missed it, here it is...

Watch CBS Videos Online

Rest in peace Farrah. You who will be missed by family, friends and countless fans.

If You Knew Suze, Like I Know Suze

This past Friday, I received a special invitation by Avon to meet personal finance guru Suze Orman for her very first "Tweet Up" with bloggers. At first, I thought there would be hundreds of people there and I would probably get a chance to just smile and snap a Blackberry photo of her. Boy, was I in for a big surprise!

The moment I arrived, I was greeted by the friendly Avon staff and then, after following a few Twitter bird signs, I entered a conference room and saw a few familiar faces - like Aly Walansky, who is a fabulous beauty blogger and Issa with YourSingleParenting.com.

After we had all taken our seats around a conference table (yes it was that small of a group!) Suze made her entrance and took the entire place by storm. Her candor and humor is infectious and even when she's giving you hard hitting advice that may be tough to take, you know she is telling it like it is and only wants to help you succeed and dare I say, MAKE MONEY!

And that's why I believe Avon was brilliant in assembling a group of female bloggers - many of whom share their thoughts, recommendations, interviews, beauty tips, financial advice, essays and reviews without being compensated for their content. As mainstream magazines are folding left and right and the online world is the place where all brands want to be, bloggers are helping to feed the beast by constantly providing free content to mainstream outlets without being compensated for their work. And with the help of Suze Orman, our lives and perspective about our work and our worth was about to change.

Avon, which was the first company in the United States to empower women to make money, now helps millions of individuals earn a living or additional income so that they can afford to buy or do the things they love. And that's exactly why Suze Orman decided to partner with the organization - aside from the fact that her own mom was an Avon representative in 1962 and she revealed that her additional income from Avon helped support their family.

During the breakfast, we all found out that Suze's road to success was pretty rocky. She never graduated college and earned a living as a waitress at the age of 30. Her career prospects changed after a brokerage firm lost $50,000 that was loaned to her so she could open a restaurant and she decided to become a broker in an industry dominated by men, determined to earn that money back. Surviving on Taco Bell and living out of her car, Suze managed to turn her life around, became an expert in personal finance and the rest is history. She also revealed that while her books have sold millions of copies, she didn't publish her first one until she was 45! Translation - it is never too late to reinvent your life, start doing what you love and make a living along the way.

During the Tweet up, I managed to snag some amazing quotes from Suze. But before we get to them, I wanted to inform our readers of a few more great things about her. First up, if you follow her on Twitter @suzeormanshow and you ask her a finance question, she will answer you. Suze answers all questions on her Twitter account so if you think someone else is writing you back, it's actually Suze, how cool is that?

Next, I was genuinely touched to see how incredibly supportive Suze Orman was to the group of women who attended the event. A handful of women had been laid off with some even facing their last unemployment check and Suze as well as other attendees at the breakfast offered them advice and ongoing support. Plus, rather than looking at a layoff as a negative, Suze congratulated the women about their good fortune since they now have the chance to wipe the slate clean and do what they love.

And now for all the amazing quotes and advice I managed to Tweet from the event...

"Suze Orman created an account with TD Ameritrade SaveYourself.com. Save money and put it away. TD Ameritrade pays you $100! #avontweetup
10:55 AM Jun 19th from TwitterBerry
---This was in reference to how we should approach investing and our 401K's in a turbulent market. It turns out that Suze is working with TD Ameritrade - if you visit the site SaveYourself.com, you can save money and TD Ameritrade will pay you $100 to deposit funds with them. Additionally, Suze suggested for those of us no longer working in corporate America, we should rollover our 401K's into an IRA that then eventually roll that over into a Roth IRA.

@suzeormanshow "Build your brand with honesty, integrity and truth #avontweetup
10:14 AM Jun 19th from TwitterBerry
-That's how Suze has built her own brand too and she says she never buys anything she can't afford. She owns all her homes outright (all 8 of them), she travels by private jet, and she never dips into her savings. She only uses the money that she has earned after taxes from new opportunities to make her purchases.

@suzeormanshow Nobody else matters but you and are you on track with living a happy life #avontweetup
10:00 AM Jun 19th from TwitterBerry

@suzeormanshow Leverage is what got the United States into trouble...as a woman, I don't like leverage #avontweetup
9:56 AM Jun 19th from TwitterBerry
-In reference to a question about whether a couple should borrow funds in order to invest in the stock market.

"Women help other women, we have to help one another" #avontweetup
9:47 AM Jun 19th from TwitterBerry

"There is nothing wrong with making profit so that all come to benefit"#avontweetup
9:34 AM Jun 19th from TwitterBerry
--In reference to a question about wanting to start a non-profit organization.

And the best Tweet of All...
@suzeormanshow "Changing lives one tweet at a time"
9:33 AM Jun 19th from TwitterBerry

After two hours, the discussion finally came to a close and then they held a raffle drawing to win all of Suze's books. And guess what? Even though yours truly never wins anything...and I repeat anything, I won!!! So watch out Role Mommies - the moment those books arrive, I am going to become a finance fiend.

Thank you to Avon for inviting me to be a part of one of the most exciting events I've ever attended and to Suze Orman for her heartfelt advice, inspiring story and giving spirit. To find out more about Avon and the incredible work they have accomplished in support of entrepreneurs and women's causes, then visit AVON.com for more information about their foundation. And if you want a Suze fix, tune into her show on CNBC - which happens to be the #1 show on the network - visit the Suze Orman website or better yet, give her a Tweet @suzeormanshow. Trust us, you're eyes will light up and you'll be grinning from ear to ear the moment she answers you back!

To top the morning off, there was a professional photographer snapping away and I even got to take a shot with Suze - I think you can tell my from my enormous grin that I had a great time. What a way to spend a morning. Now time to make some money!

Look at Me, I'm a Cartoon Character!

I've officially decided. I really like myself better these days as a cartoon character than as myself. With the current rainy weather and humidity, I look like I've stuck my finger in a light socket every day of the week so imagine my surprise when my friends at Frito Lay and their web series A Woman's World surprised me and 14 other amazing bloggers who are part of the their Fab 15 with a badge featuring me in a cute dress and adorable hairdo.

Funny, I'm actually going to be getting my haircut this weekend and I think I'll bring this cartoon lady with me. If you'd like to see some of my Fab 15 friends, then check out the shots below...
This is Classy Mommy. She's a former marketing executive for Ford who turned her passion for product reviews and giveaways into one of the most popular parenting review sites in the blogosphere!

Next up, my good friend Audrey, who is a former fashionista (she worked for Donna Karan) turned mom-inista. Audrey vlogs with her mom and sister at Mom Generations and offers amazing tips on how to look great for less.

Meet Katja Presnal. Katja is a social media dynamo and is the founder of Skimbaco Lifestyle, which offers product reviews, interviews tips on social networking and much more! Katja is also what I'd like to call the Twitter whisperer with over 10,000 followers and counting.

Meet Christine. She's the woman behind From Dates to Diapers which offers great giveaways and reviews for new moms plus laugh out loud posts about her hectic life as a busy mom of six children all under eight years old!

We'll be adding more of the Fab 15 over the coming days, and if you'd like to make your own cartoon version of yourself, you can do it too! Just visit A Woman's World and start imagining yourself with a perfect hairstyle and really cute outfit.
