I goofed with my abreviations guess I better read up on them. Thanks for the hello. I would love to be a work at home mom but right now it is not looking good. I actually have gotten used to being out of the house. With Matthew I went back to work at 6 months, but with Thomas and our great government up here I was supposed to get 1 year mat leave but work called and asked me to come back early. I negotiated and got more money and better hours so I went back at 9 months. I look forward to meeting you all. Terri -------------------- Terri He is in a happier place.

I was not impressed... but at the same time, I'm happy to be making some money, because DH doesn't really work other than weekends - he's in university full-time at the moment.

My Dh & I both attended University and couldn't wait till we were finished. Wow going back that early can be really hard. Sorry to hear you had to go then. We were hoping I could be a sahm but it just wasn't going to be , so here I sit day after day, working on a computer, blah. Enough rambling, looking forward to making new connections.

I hope I am not the one confusing the abbreviations. I got most of them from another source and everyone here added a few. Either way, I am a work at home mom. I thought it would be a lot easier than it has been... it's not easy balancing the time between taking care of Ashley and getting work done. If I had my choice, I would play with her all day.

Oh, and I have to sneak some time in on this board too. haha. It makes for a long day sometimes!

That's what I do at home...haha. So, we are not that different after all.

Looking forward to chatting more!

All day long I input the orders of about 7 sales reps and do all sorts of other administrative work for everyone. We are a small familly business and the owners are great. Talk to you later, work is calling my name. -------------------- Terri He is in a happier place.

DH (TLCDad) and I run our own business -- we do web design, database development, and any kind of custom programming. We are fortunate that this kind of work can be done out of our home.
