Be a stay at home mom
Or should I change this to "support a stay at home dad"? 3 years ago

My husband’s last day of work was Tuesday, and he has entered the realm of stay at home dads. I am quite jealous of this fact and have some emotional healing to do over the next several weeks—shouldn’t it be me staying home? How will I ever have enough time to spend with my baby? Does this mean my husband will be closer to our son than I ever will be?

I am glad that at least one of us can stay home, but I will always wish it could have been me.

Sell stuff on ebay
Done! 3 years ago

I have now officially sold something on eBay. But it turns out that I had underestimated the postage and ended up losing about a buck fifty for proper postage. Do people have postal scales at home or something? Or do you just really pad postage and handling fees to cover the cost?

Leave work on time (read all 2 entries…)
Time to put it to the test 3 years ago

I start work tomorrow after 13 weeks out on maternity leave. I’ll be part-time (afternoons) for eight days before starting full time. Mentally, I’ve made the commitment to come home on time, but it had always been difficult for me in the past so I may need to think of new and creative ways to get out of the office. I wonder if someone can write me a program that will only allow my laptop to be functional between the hours of 8 and 5. (Hmm, I’m no stranger to coding, maybe that’s the one big idea that will make me a millionaire.)
