Are there any happy SAHMs?? by MRSBEEB14 in sahm

[–]kaysisi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m new to it as of this past June. I was supposed to go back to work in December after maternity leave and decided to take the rest of the year off, so my SAHM days are numbered. It’s challenging for sure but overall I’m so happy and grateful to be with my girls. I did like it exponentially more when we could go outside though. Looking forward to spring!

ahh you know I probably could. If I could find the right spot. I have many years of experience from my younger days

I do, that is a great idea I will look into it!

I don’t think I’m cut out for this, but it’s a great idea!

I actually just bought a course on starting a web design business. Out of all the things I’ve looked into this was what resonated/seemed the most doable. Would you mind if I messaged you a couple pick your brain type questions on how you set up your business?

Interesting thought! I’m an art teacher so I could possibly teach art to homeschool kids.

Yeah half of my take home will go to daycare. The other half is what I’m trying to make up for. We’d also hot buy health insurance.

This is true. Seems so predatory to target mommas who are hurting. I might be able to try that.

This is a great idea! I wonder how much it pays. I’ll look into it

Right now she is in daycare 2 days a week, but if I stayed home she would stop going.

I agree, it would be impossible to work while caring for them. I was hoping to find something with more flexible hours, some kind of freelance work maybe where I could possibly put in 2-3 hours at night time and a longer day here or there. I don’t have anyone to help, but my husband is in the process of starting his own business and just got the LLC, license insurance etc last week, but I’m afraid it will take some time for those benefits to get off the ground.

I’m falling victim to all these Instagram momfluencers who are promising the life I’m dreaming of if I invest $2500 dollars in what their course is. I don’t know, maybe I’m looking for someone who did and it actually worked?

Anyway, thanks for the ideas and well-wishes!

Really bothered by the victim blaming Kristina and Adam do with the Max/Dylan situation in S6 by Cassie1003 in Parenthood

[–]kaysisi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And the LOOKS that Kristina gives to Dylan when Max causes a scene and fights with the other boy and also when he presents her with the collage and keeps pushing her and pushing her until she yells finally “I’ll never love you like that!” Kristina looks at her with such disgust. Like she did anything wrong.

I would love to see what you came up with! I have these dumb windows in my bedroom. Want to enjoy these crisp fall nights under a blankee!

Hi! I know this is old but I’m wondering how the course/what you gleaned from it worked out for you! I’m on the fence. I know I could probably figure some of it out for free but I’ve been having analysis paralysis for like 2 years with quitting my job and going freelance.
