Gone, Gone, Gone, You've Been Gone So Long....
Were you wondering if I was ever gone to post again. Or did you completely give up on me? Tonight I was planning on getting to bed early. I've been waking up at the crack of ass for the past few days and I feel really tired, but I can't sleep. I've been thinking about blogging, and my blog friends. Sorry I haven't been around. I can't say that I was doing anything spectacular. Started a new work venture. That has been hogging a lot of my time. I took the kids to Williamsburg, VA. That was a whole lot of fun. Great place, I highly recommend it.
I've been working from home and I think it is making me a little depressed. The thing about working from home is you never leave work. People think, oh you're working from home, you must have so much free time. This is not true, for me anyway.
So, I think I'm depressed because I am cooped up all day and I am not interacting with people. I wake up and start my laptop up and I'm working. Before I know it, it's noon and I haven't showered yet. When I went to drop off my cleaning yesterday, the woman asked, "When would you like to pick these up?" I replied, "What's today?" She looked at me funny. The other thing is people get the work at home mom, confused with the stay at home mom. I think that's what dry cleaner lady was thinking. Must be nice, stay at home mom, doesn't even have to remember what day it is.
Having said that, I'd rather be a work at home mom instead of a stay at home mom. I tried the latter and it was not for me. I have to work. I started my new business the day after I quit my job. So that's good. I have that going for me, which is nice. But I smell. I smell bad. Almost skunk like. I honestly can't remember when I showered last. I think it was Monday. Ok, I gotta go take a shower. This is ridiculous.

Your comment made my day! Its so good to see a post from you young lady! I have never worked at home but have heard others say the same thing - its really hard to get away from work when you are always "at work". I bet in time you will figure something out to let you balance things out a bit. Congrats on starting a new business, I remember you talking about it. Its so good to see when someone actually DOES what they say they are going to do! Good on you!
