Another Poll: Work or SAH?
Based on a lurker's opinion of us being a bunch of SAH folks with too much time on our hands, do you work or SAH?

Married Bio! Follow my Pinterest!
I work FT and have a PT job 3 days a week.
I'm a wife and a cook and I do laundry.
I am a dog mommy to Picasso who is blind and has diabetes and needs 2 shots of insulin per day and my full and undivided attention when I'm home.
The same with my husband, he needs my full and undivided attention when I'm home. lol
I SAH.
And I would pay money to have too much time on my hands.
I think your blog is a full time job. I marvel at your ability to cook at this stuff, never mind document it.
When did that happen?
I work FT outside of the home.
I work FT and then some...not to mention the whole wife/mother thing...
Work FT.
And when I *am* at home I sure don't have time to be on the nest.
Work FT with a 1 1/2 hour drive.
And you don't want to know how much time I spend in volunteering/fostering/doggy stuff.
The face of Kitty-Hate
I work FT and don't even have kids.
lol, if i am at the computer, i am working. usually, at home.
i work the businessy part of my business at home, and shoot everywhere under the sun, and meet in my office. and mom stuff and wife stuff, but that's a given!

Only a person without kids would assume that being a SAHM means you don't have anything to do. My kids demand constant attention, far more than any of my bosses ever did.
No doubt. The second I look away they are doing something like drinking syrup from the bottle or dumping an entire bottle of Hershey's in the play kitchen pans.
I can see the picture. That's the only reason I know we are not talking about the exact same children.
Work FT out of the home here, hour drive each way.
Some days I have loads of time. Some days, like today, I have meetings all day long as well as trying to keep up with my regular work load and projects.
SAH... and we dont have kids yet but we have one on the way
Ive only been SAH since we moved to Houston a year ago before that I worked FT. And since we have been here this has been my second pregnancy, but the first ended in a missed m/c. Now I try to make sure that DH doesnt have too much to do in the evenings.... but the last month or so he has been doing everything as I keep overdoing it and even going to the shops with my belly and this heat is a struggle!
But before I got pregnant I did have quite a bit of time to spare... and got back into crafts that I never had time to do before.... although thinking about it Ive actually been pregnant for a lot of the time I have been in Houston! And I have no idea how I would have coped working and pregnant... although I know many do... Im just super exhausted the whole time. I guess Im so not used to the heat!!
This!
I had WAAAAYYY more time to be online when I was working full time! Now my friends and family complain I'm never online, don't post pics or send out updates anymore. I just don't have the time to be on the computer much recreationally.
