As most of you know, I am part of the amazing team over at Work It! Mom. Coolest. Job. Ever.
Seriously.
In addition to my column (Where I play an expert in all things marriage, love and relationships)(I am SO KIDDING. I’m just making it up as I go along), I am in charge of the Problem Solved blog. It is way too much fun to be called “work”.
If you need a laugh (and are not faint at heart) read this post. I giggle like a school girl every time I read it.
Work It! Mom has recently been overhauled. It is new! Improved! All sorts of shiny! We are looking for input as to what people like over there (Have I mentioned that I have a column? And run another?) and what improvements that they might suggest.
Enough talk on my part. Here is where I tell you that I want to give you a $25 gift card to Amazon.com
Here is how you enter:
1. Click and check out Work It! Mom.
2. Come back HERE and leave a comment about it. Likes (Um, me? Or maybe the recipes? Or the slide shows?) and dislikes.
3. I will leave comments open until Wednesday, December 17th at midnight. Unless I decide to close them sooner. I’m awesome like that.
I will then use Random.org to choose the winner.
Enough blabber. Go! Come Back! Comment! WIN.
**OK! Matthew and I just sat down (I wanted a witness) and used Random.org
The winner is Amanda! Yes she is one of my closest friends, so this might seem rigged, but please see the screen shot above. Yay Amanda!
It looks great. I think it’s pretty newby-friendly, which I appreciate, as a newby. I checked out the recipe for chicken hummus wraps – yummm, also I like the “parenting tip” cool ideas.
Thanks for sending me over… I’ll be back

Things I like:
the blogs (I get to read more from people I already like i.e. Kristin, Whoorl, and of course you!)
the recipes (although I haven’t yet tried anything)
and p.s. that sex after marriage post made me giggle too.

I like the header – so clean – so workin’ it. I also like that I can subscribe to an RSS feed of just my favorite columns (like yours!).
[Reply]
I sent that post to my husband with a smirk, it was way too accurate and funny
I have tried at least one recipe over there, and Work It, Mom has LOADS of great writers whose personal blogs I read – so I’ve started added different parts to my feed reader.
Emma’s last blog post..Nice

I like it! I also love the sweater dresses. Am absolutely breaking down and buying one.

It looks great – I like that there are a number of headlines in each category, but not so many it’s overwhelming. The site also loads much faster than it has in the past (at least for me). I’m impressed!

I like the new layout … it’s clean. I think the home page inline content features could be organized better. I would move “write a blog” to under the “from our bloggers” section. Make the middle column “daily inspiration”, “get the essentials” and “affordable luxuries”. Below the ad spot have “member question” and “member lifesaver.” That kind of organizes the columns better for the user. “Unique personalized gift ideas” seems a bit random. Maybe move to middle column?

I like the sexy bitch.

I love how each blogger brings something to the table. The topics are broad and the content is really appropriate and helpful. Love your column, Angella!

I’ve seen you refer to the site before…but I never went over. I like the stress reliever ideas…I will be checking back…

Oh. Em. Gee. That sex after marriage post is the funniest thing I’ve ever read. Where did you find that guy.

I like the save time category. I also like that there’s a member question on the homepage. I’m not going to lie – I’m at work so I can’t delve any deeper in the site. Maybe tonight!

I love the new and improved site, very user friendly and also quite charming and inviting. It has been added to my bookmarks bar!
[Reply]
I don’t get a chance to check often but when I do, I enjoy the articles. I would like to see an article on a particular topic – I’ll email you
Off to check out more, revisions can wait

I like the new site and think it’s got a crisp, easy-to-navigate look.

I always love your posts @ workitmom.
I never seem to be able to find anything 2x though, maybe it’s just me … not too swift!

I love the fact that some of my fave bloggers write for Work It! Mom (you and Sarah).

I’m a simple girl at heart, so I really like the simplicity of the design, and how easy it is to get around the site. I also like the colors (ooh, pretty! no really, though: they are pretty), and while I didn’t think at first that I was a fan of the all lowercase headers, they are growing on me.

You know how the internet is, you start clicking and hours later you find yourself commenting on a stranger’s blog. I never saw the previous incarnation of Work It Mom, but this version seems to be doin pretty good for itself. Clean and bright, like my kitchen ought to be.
Anyway, I liked the Affordable Luxuries, because even though I can’t afford even those, I like to think about it.

The site itself is a bit busy, but I do like the contributions, especially the fact that Danny was allowed to post as a dad.

I have been visiting Work It Mom for a while now. I started reading Organizing Disorder first and now I read a lot of the other bloggers too, including you and whoorl and Kristin. I like that I can quickly see the latest post from each blogger so I can see if it is new and if I’m interested without too many clicks.
I want the amazon gift card because now I want to buy something for myself (and hubby wink wink). I’m thinking about trying the hanky panky thong that whoorl wrote about last week.
[Reply]
Whta I use the most is the “from our bloggers – see all” function – to get to all my fave bloggers posts quickly. I’m not so interested in the “most popular” blogs. I find the home page pretty busy…but I find the site very easy to navigate through. I love searching through the recipes too.
[Reply]
I read the blogs mostly — Mir is a fave. I occasionally poke around at other stuff, but rarely does anything else really grab me.
[Reply]
I like the clean, uncomplicated design. It’s a refreshing!
Also, as someone who is not married I love reading your column… I store up the information in my brain (& heart?) hoping to avoid some common marital pitfalls. (I’m quite the idealist.
)
[Reply]
I like the save time section, especially the quick recipes. Every Mom needs those! : )
The site looks great to me!

That’s the first venture I’ve made to that website, what a find! I love the recipes, I’m always looking for something new to feed Beth, and Corey.

I love how well organized it is and easy to navigate. And I love that I now am sucked in, I mean, blessed with more pretty, shiny blogs to read.
[Reply]
Is it weird that I like the “work it Mom” site and I am not a Mom? Well, unless you count my cute little basset hound. She sure does keep me on my toes.

It’s great! I’m always looking for new recipes and a good laugh. The site has it all. Good work!

I love this website!! I added Work It Mom to my favorites…funny stuff.

OK, i know it’s not fair to post more than once, but i just read your post from today…”staring down the barrel of your buttcrack…” it made me laugh out loud. Got a few funny looks from those walking by…

I’m not a Mom, but I love the de-stress section…everyone can use little ideas like that to make life simpler!
Julia’s last blog post..Oceans

I was doubtful that the site would apply to me as I don’t have any kids…but as I read various articles (especially ones from your column), I found a lot of useful information about marriage regardless of kids. My husband and I have only been married a few years and I found many of the articles really helpful!
The site was very user friendly.
(this is the first time I have EVER commented on a blog before!)
[Reply]
Love it. And I’m not technically a mom, hope that’s okay
It’s in the works and we’re trying up a storm (too much?). Anyway, I really love your article on “making it to forever.” I come from a broken home but hubby’s parents have a wonderful marriage. They are our role models in making it work and sticking through all of the ups and downs. Like you, we take our vows literally and the d-word is not on the table. period.
[Reply]
The site is great. Easy to navigate, and has lots of wonderful writers. *wink*wink*
Oh, and Raging Dad should be invited back for more tips. He’s too funny.

I’ve been checking it out every once in a while since you started writing there and I’ve enjoyed the articles. I’m bookmarking it now.

I love the post about the secretary.
And I read your column all the time. Its one of my regular reads for sure!

Well, I’m obviously not in the demographic they’re shooting for, but I can comment as a web designer. The site design is smart — good categories, easy access to deeper levels of content, clean, uncluttered layout. Visually, it might almost be too clean…all that arctic white and cool blue might be considered downright chilly. But that’s a quibble. Looks great.
