About

Laura Earnest is the pseudonym of a software engineer who has spent years looking for ways to simplify her life and gain control of an ever-increasingly complex schedule.

Her philosophy:

Working moms are expected to do it all: provide income, keep the house running, provide nutritious meals, be caregivers and more. And we are still supposed to find time in there to expand ourselves.

I work outside the home, run a household, have a young family, and participate in several community service groups. My life is busy, just as most other people’s lives are, and I have a tendency to get over-committed and stressed out.

Being a working mom is not easy. Through this blog, I will provide information and solutions to make things easier for all of us. I will be using these ideas as well, as I search for a simpler, saner and more meaningful life as a working mom.
