Wow, I bet that was a lot of work for you at first, though! My little guy is 20 months old right now. Another baby would be . Of course, my tubes are tied now, so I'm hoping that wouldn't happen!

I had two kids before my third anniversary (and was NOT pregnant when I got married). Not the way I'd neccessarily recommend starting a marriage, but I love my kids.

Holy cow, you were busy! And I mean raising babies, not the other. How old are your kids now, again?

Why don't you work while they're in school? I asked my friend that, and she says she's too busy to work, because she has so many activities she does with them, like volunteering at school, sports, after school activities, etc. Is that what I have to look forward to?

I worked part time for awhile, recently quit that and now only sub if someone gets sick. I do a LOT of volunteering. Basically, I don't have a great resume but only want to work very select hours (just while they are in school) and that's hard to find

Yeah, that's what I thought. It has to be hard when they're in school, and I know most jobs aren't very accomodating when it comes to working around kids' school hours. I was actually one of the great bosses that was very accomodating to the mom's. Then I quit to be with my own child! ;D Your kids are so cute!!

Thanks. I almost got a job at the kids school (they go to a private montesorri) but decided I didnt want to be so in "their" space. and oddly enough, I would have had to have the kids in aftercare because of my hours if I worked there

See, that's why I am an Independant Distributor for the jewelry company. I make between $200-$350 for every pary I do, and it only takes about 3 hours. I can do them anytime my husband is home, and it's so easy. I didn't start doing it for the $$, but just to get out of the house and make my own money again. The funny thing is, if I do two shows a week, it would take 8 hours TOPS for both, and I make as much as I did working full time. Plus, there are no quotas, so I like that. I just set up my jewelry display, let people look, and put the checks in the bank at the end of the party. Then I pay the company and the rest of the $$ is mine. Maybe you could think about doing something like that. I don't know if you'd be interested, but doing something like that might work out for you.

Who cares? You could do anything you want. You don't have to have a certain personality to do something like that. You sure don't seem shy!

Typing is different. You can wait and think about what you want to say, does that make sense?
