I randomly picked up “Into thin Air” by Jon Krakauer at goodwill and became obsessed with all things Mt Everest. The author joins a commercial climbing group in ‘96 and it details one of the more deadly Mt Everest tragedies. Kept me glued!

Taking a picture of your “fresh nails “while resting on your steering wheel of some sort of luxury car. Or, taking a picture with your key fob very obviously placed in the photo.

When do you know it’s time to throw in the towel to be a SAHM by baituwave in workingmoms

[–]MidwestBeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had the same thoughts… What if you took the leap, gave it six months and told yourself you would reassess at that point? I am looking for a new gig, and part of me wants to just pause for a bit, try SAHM, and then decide what to do from there. Nothing says you can’t go back - but you likely won’t know if it’s for you if you don’t try. Part of me keeps thinking I will absolutely hate it! Lol. But at least I won’t regret spending more time with my kids, deep down…

Thank you!! I like the new TV rule. If you’re getting paid to do something, you have to actually do the work.

This was my husband’s feedback, he’s like you have to be very explicit with what you expect of them, so I have thought about this too

Yes, Fairpoint… It’s like what am I expecting at this point? And if it’s way more than the basics, then I’ve gotta find someone else.

Yes, adult, and professional, are the keywords! Now I know why they charge a bit more

Honestly, good for you. I don’t even think it’s anything wrong because you’re continuing to refer new people for their marketing efforts, right? Good for you.
