    Cool Only one more day of full time work!!!

    As of Monday morning I am officially working part time! Yeah!!!! I am cutting back from 40-45 hours a week to 25. I am so excited I can't stand it. I am looking forward to cooking dinner for my hubby, keeping my house clean, and doing things I enjoy just because I enjoy them. I also plan on using some of my extra time to learn to play the piano. I am really REALLY looking forward to having a life again. If it weren't for FV I wouldn't know how to save enough money to be able to do this. Thanks girls!

    Good for you! I hated working away from home, especially when it was full time, let alone part time. I love being home too.

    WOO HOO, I am now a part-time employee. I don't feel like they own me any more. I actually get to clock out and leave, I dont' have to feel guilty when I say no because I'm not salary any more. I am still recovering from some very busy and stressful weeks. I am going to enjoy relaxing and enjoying being home. I feel like I have so much to do around here, though! I haven't been able to keep up with things like I would have liked for the last year. Time to clean behind the couches and vacuum the ceiling fans!
