    I get tired of sitting at a desk all day. My office is decent sized and I have my privacy, but the lack of a window kills me. I probably sit down for 90% of the time I am awake.....not good for my mental or physical health at all.

    ....other than that work is great :D

    Im right there with you Christie. Love being home with my two little ones, but there are some days...... lets just say.. I wish I could "leave" my job for a few hours. snuggle time is the best! I used to work as a secretary in a large law firm on the international side.. now that was big stress and do not miss it at all. Plus being home gives me a chance to teach myself how to airbrush, how to tattoo, & work on my crafts (I do lots of em). Plus I feel better being home knowing that if there is an emergency with my older boy in school, I'm here to get him.

    They call those "lot lizards" who hang out at truck stops.

    Back to the main subject, I love my job. Go into work for 24hrs, go to sleep at my normal time, wake up and go home for 2 days off. Sure we run some calls, put out some fires, respond to medical emergencies but thats the fun part!

    Ditto to that!!. I love being a stay at home mom. Its the BEST job ever. I am going to miss them when they go to school. I won't have anyone to play with anymore:( I know the days too, where you wish you had a remote to pause the entire day, stop time, relax and MUTE the kids for five seconds lol....

    I was thinking about going back to work, but Shaun and I figured out with the cost of daycare, we would actually be losing money if I went back to work during daytime hours.

    So once they do go to school, I will probably work part time.

    I'm the only woman where I work and the truckers never hit on me. WOW, what a relief. I don't put up with drama from women or male hormones!:banana:

    If you will give me the names and phone numbers of the truckers I will let them know that you feel left out and would like some attention from them hehehe:sweeet:
