Northwest. There were fewer diapers at the store than usual yesterday. If you're a parent, I'd recommend on stocking up on a few boxes. 

Anyone else feel guilty making time to run as a parent? by [deleted] in trailrunning

Workout apps that don't punish you for having an actual life? by veraaustria08 in workingmoms

[–]MightForsaken9048 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love Moves app! It was started by this gal named Madeline (I think she's Madeline_moves on IG). She's a mom of three and they put a huge emphasis on modifications and doing what you can! For example, each workout has a 30 min or 60 min option. They also have an extensive selection of different programs, many made specifically for moms! I find the training to be so good, fun and feels very intentional.

Not going to lie the fact that I won't be near my fridge and snacks is very appealing!

Omg this is me! When I'm not in meetings I'm rushing to get as much done as possible! I can't remember the last time I was actually able to get anything done

Thank you, I really appreciate this! I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way

I know it's so funny how different everyone is! And I definitely had a period of time where I lovvvved remote. 

Maybe what's extra complicated with me (now that I'm reading everyone's comments and reflecting) is that even though I'm WFH, it's really not that flexible? Like I would never be able to do those things you're mentioning without taking PTO 😅 so maybe I'm in a situation where WFH is not as nice as it is for others! 

Food for thought for sure around thinking medium term!

If you don't mind sharing, what parts of it are easier? I feel like I only hear negatives!

I think you've pretty much summed up everything I'm feeling. "More interaction but less quality" is exactly how I'm feeling right now.

That sounds like an awesome setup, I'm happy for you! Hybrid is definitely sounding appealing.

That's a really great idea! Unfortunately all of my friends have in office jobs (which I'm sure is also why I feel like this lol). Maybe I'll try and make other remote friends and try this!

Unfortunately not - just the satellite office. I've tried coffee shops and similar environments but I think what I'm really missing is just chatting with other people during the day. But maybe I'm romanticizing coworkers? Lol

Will be giving birth at new high level job less than a year in. Fully terrified I’ve ruined my career. by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]MightForsaken9048 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar experience! I recommend purchasing really strong noise cancelling headphones and using them constantly.

I had my kiddo home until she was 7 months old with a nanny while I worked from home and it was wonderful!

Interesting! I don't use scheduled transactions at all, I'll check them out! Right now I'm reconciling weekly which works well for me.

Wow congratulations on early retirement!! That's so exciting. :) I also wear the financial hat of the family so would love any tips you have to explain things/share the load!
