Well, my friends, back to work for me tomorrow. I'll be wishing I was stitching and surfing with you guys.
Good stitching!

I've done a few hours at home, but will really start properly on Thursday when DH goes back to the department. Son at University goes on Sunday. (Not a day too soon, he's bored rigid!

)

C-F, been there and am also doing that. Which is how I got into freelance editing in the first place. 24/7, I know. But you do need to take a break, too, sometimes. I used to do a child exchange with a pal (she got the rough deal: my 2 for her 1), but I looked forward to that afternoon like you wouldn't believe!!

I've done that too C-F but I'm afraid it drove me batty!

Had to go to work to regain my sanity.

I'm back on Weds the 2nd.

Did the stay at home until both kids started school then worked for the school district so I would be off the same time the kids were. It was very nice kids never had to go to a babysitter. Then when the politics in the district got to be more then I could stand I went to work for my hubby. The kids were in high school and Jr High by then so it was fine. Now I set my own schedule but, that has draw backs to so don't think I have it any easier then you that work in real jobs. I don't work I don't get paid and there are no paid holidays or vacation days to take.
