Oh man, today I am feeling like this cooler gloomy weather 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘭𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘧𝘧 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘵! 😅
Who else feels like sometimes their energy is directly proportional to the amount of sunshine outside?
But hey, we’re working moms...we’ve got deadlines to meet and 𝘬𝘪𝘥𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘥 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘵𝘰! 😂
So, how do we keep that motivation train moving along when the weather’s got other plans?
𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝘁��𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗜’𝗺 𝘁𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆:
💕 Blasting some cheesy upbeat tunes (𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝟫𝟢’𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦).
💕 Breaking tasks into bite-sized chunks (𝘐’𝘮 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘈𝘓𝘓 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘛𝘏𝘐𝘕𝘎𝘚, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘮𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 ).
💕 Treating myself to a little pick-me-up (𝘢 𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘤𝘶𝘱 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘦!)
What are your go-to tricks when your motivation level is running on empty?

Introducing: Tilly's Pie Mom Blog!
Welcome to the chaotic world of my life, where every day feels like a sitcom episode gone wild!  People often tell me that my life is a whirlwind of chaos and humor, and they're not wrong. With three girls, a fluffy Whoodle, and a wonderful but sometimes overwhelmed husband, my household is always buzzing with activity.
Let me paint you a picture: my girls are 4, 7, and 10 years old. Yep, that's a whole lot of estrogen under one roof. My eldest, Eve, is 10 going on 23, while my middle daughter, Mille, is absolutely awesome and happens to be autistic which as you can imagine can add some spice to our lives. And last but not least my little princess, Kate, who's just four and already ruling the roost.
Living in urban Canada adds its own layer of madness to the mix. My house is a perpetual tornado zone, I perpetually look like I've only had half a hour of sleep (think mid 30s fuzzy mom bun... I posted a picture (No Hate)), and my wardrobe consists mainly of leggings, mom jeans and hoodies. Oh, and did I mention I'm overweight because someone has to eat the leftover dino nuggets... right? and I am 100% just trying to survive my day-to-day life. If any of these sentiments sounds familiar, then buckle up, and follow me because you're in for a wild ride.
Now, why the name "Tilly's Pie Mom Blog"? Well, my mom gave me the nickname Tilly when I was a kid, so it's a nod to family ties. Plus, who doesn't love pie? It's delicious, comforting, and brings people together—kind of like the point of this blog, and as for the "Mom" part? Well, that's just who I am, through and through. Mom, Momma, Mommy, Bro, BRA—yep those are new curtesy of my tween, I've been called them all. But at the end of the day, "Mom" is the title I wear with pride.
So, what can you expect from this blog? Real-life stories that are funny, terrifying, and downright heartwarming. Join me as I navigate the rollercoaster of parenthood and share the moments that make it all worthwhile. Because let's face it, whether you're laughing out loud or crying into your 3rd coffee, parenting is one wild adventure—and I wouldn't have it any other way… usually. So, grab a slice of pie (or a whole pie, no judgment here) and let's dive into my life if only to make you feel better about yours!

Lately
Fandom: Supergirl
Relationships: Kara Danvers/Lena Luthor
Characters: Kara Danvers, Lena Luthor, Original Danvers/Luthor Children, Morgan Edge, Jess
Summary: A slice of life story. Lena is trying to balance her life at L-Corp with home life with Kara and her twins. However, things don't always go so smoothly.
Word Count: 8,043
Lena sat in the backseat of her town car viewing the results of her latest project at L-Corp. Her latest project was trying to use a 3-D printer to create organic limbs and organs. They were able to successfully create an organic leg today, but it exploded after 5 minutes. She knew there was damage to the lab, but was not sure the entire extent of it. Her lab assistants were all running around like chickens with their heads cut off. It was why she was in her town car being driven to L-Corp at 6:30 am in the morning. She didn’t know what made her upset more. The fact that the experiment failed and caused possible major damage, or the fact that she couldn’t take her 6 year old twin girls Liza and Alexa to school this morning. She had promised them the last several days to take them to school in the morning, but something always seems to come up at work. She walked into the living room dreading to tell them she was failing again to keep her word for a third day in a row. They were glued to the tv eating their cereal watching Kara as Supergirl fighting the Pied Piper. He was controlling the rats to attack the citizens of downtown National City. Lena shuddered. She hated rats. 
“Look at Jeju go!” squealed Alexa.
“Wouldn’t it be cool if we had a pet rat?” asked Liza.
“I don’t know if Mommy would let us keep him.”
“Why not?”
“She hates rats. Remember when we tried to convince her to let us babysit Fernando the Ferret?”
“Yeah, she screamed when we brought it home. She wouldn’t get off the table until JeJu flew it away.”
“I bet Jeju would let us have a pet?”
“I don’t know. Auntie Alex says that Jeju is too whipped to not do what Mommy says.”
“What does that mean?”
Liza shrugged her shoulders and went back to watching the tv. Lena approached the girls and cleared her throat to get their attention. 
“Hey, girls. Mommy has to leave early today. Jeju is going to have to take you to school.” 
Liza just kept eating her cereal. Alexa came up to Lena and gave her a hug. 
She said, “It’s okay mommy. We know you have important things to do today.” 
Alexa then ran over to Liza jumping up and down. 
“Do you know what this means?” squealed Alexa
Liza's eyes popped open after she thought about it a moment and then started jumping up and down with Alexa. 
“Jeju will fly us to school.” squealed Liza
They then started to run around the room pretending like they could fly. Afterwards, Lena ran to her car in tears. She isn’t sure what hurt her more: the fact that the girls were not phased by her unkept promises or the fact that Kara was the preferred parent. Kara is always the fun parent while Lena is viewed as a Debbie downer by the girls. Before she had the girls, she never saw herself as a parent. She didn’t really have good examples growing up. Her dad ignored her for the most part and her step mother Lillian hated her. Granted Lillian and her relationship is on the road to repair, but it took a lot of work. Then, there was Lex. She shudders when she thinks of him. He would torture her constantly growing up and well into adulthood. 
She had no thoughts on continuing the Luthor line until she met Kara. She broke down her walls and taught her not only how to love, but that she deserved to be loved by others. When they first got married, she was hesitant about having children. However, when she would stare at Kara, she knew that there was no one else that she would ever want to jump into the unknown with. The road to having the girls was filled with struggles. They first went the adoption route. While Kryptonians have both sex organs, their DNA is not compatible with humans. They went to 20 adoption agencies in the US and overseas, and their application was automatically denied. The Luthor name was toxic to them especially after all the evil things that Lex did. Lena had suggested just having Kara adopt the child, and then they could raise the baby together. However, Kara vehemently refused. She wanted both of them to be parents in every way possible. Lena decided to take things into her own hands. She experimented on herself with Kara’s DNA to see if she could combine it with hers so her body could carry a Kyptonian child. She nearly died in the process (which Kara was pissed about especially since she didn’t know about the experiments), but she changed her DNA enough that it could accept Kara’s sperm. They had their twins on the first try. When she first gave birth to them, she held them in her arms and promised them that she would always be with them unlike her family. She never wanted them to feel unwanted or unloved like she did as a child. She feels now like she has broken that promise on so many levels.

What a strange world it is where a mother bringing her own child with her to work is seen as such a bonus! A great thing! So nice of the bosses! But silence about how it is 100x harder to do that same job and yet are expected to discount their value. Women's work truly is undervalued. Working mothers must put their trust in severely underpaid daycare workers. Stay at home mothers must shoulder the entire household and be told how easy it must be and nice to not work (though parenting IS work as the existence of positions to do just that proves). Barbie had a point: no matter what you do as a woman, it is never enough and never valued as it ought to be and somehow you do it all wrong at the same time.

I'm having a day at work. And today, I realized why I relate to The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel so much, while looking for a gif to share my frustration without actually venting about it. I'm not a comedian, but I own a dog business with staff and over 100 clients. I'm working hard to get my writing career off the ground- but I've managed to get published. Book three is late to the editor.
Work is a struggle. It doesn't run smoothly. It takes up most of my time and a good chunk of my brain space.
I'm not divorced, but I'm struggling. In struggling, I'm fighting for independence I've never had. And I can complain about it here because Tumblr is a consistent social my husband has never used.
I've got four kids who I love and adore and make me crazy and spend their waking hours making me feel guilty for leaving the house and going to work or traveling to cons for my book. I do my absolute best to be present when I'm home, but it's hard when I'm still working on that stupid third book that is now 8 days late to the editor.
It's the 'Having it all' and all the consequences that come with it. But Maisel adds an element of fun and laughter to it that I wish my real life could see.

Beyond Busy: The Art of Time Management for Working Moms
Beyond Busy: The Art of Time Management for Working Moms
Beyond Busy: The Art Of Time Management For Working Moms Time Management Tips
Jan 15, 2024
Tumblr media
If you often find yourself caught in the whirlwind of managing work, family, and everything in between, you're definitely not alone. I get it—the juggling act of being a working mom is no small feat. But fear not, because today, I’m diving into the world of time management. Let's uncover some small, totally doable techniques to help you reclaim control of your schedule and make the most out of every precious moment!
The Art of Time Management
Time management isn't about fitting more into your day; it's about making the most of the time you have. It's a skill that, once mastered, can transform the chaos into a well-orchestrated symphony. Start by acknowledging that you are an amazing working mom managing multiple roles, and you deserve a strategy that works for you.
Creating Daily and Weekly Schedules
Get that planner ready (oh man, this is my favorite part), because we're diving into the nitty-gritty of scheduling. Begin by outlining your priorities for the day and week. Assign specific time blocks for work tasks, family time, self-care, and those unexpected mom duties. Having a visual roadmap can be a huge when it comes to time management, and if it makes it into the planner, you're so much more likely to commit to getting it done!
Setting Priorities and Goals
Prioritization is key. Identify the tasks that truly matter and most importantly, the ones that align with your goals. Whether it's a work deadline, a school event, or your much-needed 'me' time, knowing your priorities helps you allocate time where it matters most!
Delegating Tasks
Meet your sidekick—delegation. If you’re anything like me, it may be a struggle to admit this, but it's okay not to do it all! It’s important to delegate tasks at work and home, whether it's assigning chores to the kids or partnering with a colleague on a project. Remember, you're not relinquishing control; you're smartly distributing the workload, and hopefully acknowledging other’s strengths in the process!
Overcoming Procrastination
Procrastination is the arch-nemesis of productivity. Kick it to the curb by breaking tasks into smaller, more manageable steps. Set super realistic deadlines and reward yourself when you achieve them. Small victories pave the way for significant accomplishments!
Pro-Tip: When you make a to-do list, put everything on there—big or small! There’s something so satisfying about checking things off that list, even if it’s something as small as making your bed, and it will help motivate you to tackle the bigger, less desirable tasks!
Time-Saving Tips for Busy Moms
Let's talk about efficiency hacks. Embrace technology—use apps for grocery shopping, meal planning, and task management. Batch similar tasks together, like responding to emails or tackling household chores. And yes, saying 'no' is a powerful time-saving tool...a good friend of mine recently reminded me that “no” is, in fact, a complete sentence and can be used as such! It really is about preserving your energy for what truly matters!
Remember, time management is a journey, not a destination…and it will help you craft a life that aligns with your values and goals. Embrace the process, be kind to yourself, and celebrate the victories, big or small. You've got this, and I’m here cheering you on every step of the way!
