    Re: What does everyone do for a living?

    I am a stay at home person and caretaker of my boyfriend's 68 year old handicapped father. I also do all of the housework and cooking. I take care of my dog and snakes. I know this does not sound very impressive but some days are such a challenge with being the main caretaker. Having my snakes and my dog is so therapeutic and relaxing, this greatly reduces my stress levels.

    Re: What does everyone do for a living?

    I am an elementary school teacher, one of the only guys in the building. Yes, my co workers think it's a little crazy, but they all know about them. I even have one in the classroom. The kids love it when I put her down on the floor. She just sits there and periscopes looking at all of them.

    Got a mojave female ball there right now. It's about time to take her home for a while. Heat doesn't go on in the building when outside temps above 60 so I worry about temps in spring and fall.

    I stay at home too, and much prefer it that way!
    BF is retired.

    So, how do we afford the snakes?
    Careful budgeting and patience.

    This is very impressive to me! I am looking after my 63 year old disabled father as well as working full time, taking care of my own boyfriend and household - it's VERY challenging at times but looking after people can be quite rewarding as well. Glad you have your animals to help with stress =) I find that after a hard day I just can't wait to bring Val out to unwind with me.
