Just for fun - Getting to know you :)

I'm a STHM, well aunt. I have custody of my niece and 2 nephews so I need to be at home for them. The boys have special needs so my job is here. I used to work in a supermarket but went on leave to take care of my mum who had breast cancer. Once she was over that I went back to work but not long after she was diagnosed with Dementia and Alzheimer's so I went on leave again. As my mothers condition got worse she was unable to keep the grand kids and they wanted to live with me so here they are :)

Yes a huge thank you to you Atomic, you're the best!!!!

I'm a SAHM but I work Mon and tues. as a nanny and wed, I watch my friends 2 kids part time till 1:30. I also clean houses on the side and babysit for extra cash. I also homeschool my soon to be 2nd grader and high schooler (she pretty much homeschools herself, really)

Great idea. I love hearing about how everyone spends their days.

I'm a SAHM and I work two days a week as a RN in an emergency department. I love both my jobs :)

I was SAHM for the first 2 years with my DD#1 and then I had to find a job because DH's salary wasn't enough to support the family. Even with my salary we are hardly making the ends meet :worry:

My DH makes pretty good money but it's so expensive in the bay area and we are pretty cash poor. really sad. I've been both a working mom and a sahm throughout my life and a going to school mom. My DH was a sahd for a while in there too. Great babysitter, crappy housekeeper. :) Hmmmm, I guess i can't say much as i look around at the mess.

Before having DD I worked in my salon more and on the runway and in fashion shoots so I still have a pretty good rep. But my main priority is DD. I am not away from her hardly ever. I gave up my career to to be a mama! This is what I want!

So our days are spent hanging out by the pool, playing outside in the sandbox. Doing art projects. Reading, coloring, baking, Going to her cousins house and playing over there. Going to the park around the corner. Sometimes we will snuggle on the couch and watch a movie! my fav, break time!! Anything to stay active! We have a lot of fun me and my girl!

Hmmm, maybe I can come over for a little make-over for DH's b-day in July and take him out on the town. Hmmmm let's pm cost. :)

I'm a sahm since DD#1 was a few months old. Dh and are I very old fashioned, I love the whole barefoot and pregnant thing, I love dinner on the table when daddy gets home, I love mommy cleans the house daddy makes the money. Don't get me wrong he helps out but I do the bulk of the work. It is a lot of work but we love it and it works for us!

I'm like this too. But I really love being a nurse and it fits in well with DH's hours so I am fortunate enough to be able to do both.
