Meet the Editor
My name is Carrie Wigal and I’m a 38 year old, work-at-home-mom/stepmom & wife. I currently live in rural Central Virginia and spend most of my time making babies, chasing toddlers, taming a pre-teen, cooking sit-down dinners, keeping/cleaning house and working online.
I spent my 20’s and early 30’s pursuing a career in accounting and a childhood dream of acting on stage. In early 2000, I met my husband and we were married in late 2001. I became an instant stepmom to a wonderful 6 year old boy, whom we raise together.
In late 2003 I gave birth to my first daughter and decided I did not want to go back to work. So, I left my accounting job in the summer of 2004, moved back east to be closer to my family and pursued a Work-At-Home-Mom status on the Internet.
A year later I gave birth to my next child, a boy, and struggled alone at home to raise two small children (15 months apart) and an active 10-year-old, while my husband practically single-handedly ran a retail wallpaper store.
In mid-2006 my husband left the store and joined me at home to work full-time on the internet. Today we enjoy both being home to raise our children and pursuing our dreams of financial independence together. Oh… and we’re expecting another baby this summer (July 2007).
