You don't have to clock in to be a full time employee...

It's been a long day!  I worked in my Etsy shop ALL DAY.  Taking photos, editing photos, descriptions, listings, Facebook Fanpage...  I got 20 new listings, but it took me 8 hours total.  That's a full work day... and now I'm blogging about it!  I don't know about all the other Work-from-home/Stay-at-home-mom/Students, but I have LOTS of friends and family who constantly imply that I sit on my tush raking in the cash while they have to go WORK 40 hours a week!  Well let me tell you, there are sometimes weeks that go by that I don't make a cent!  You people know what I'm talking about!!!  lol!

So this is a tribute to all you ladies (and gentlemen) who live the same kind of life I do- Etsy shop, family, homeschool, online classes, cooking, cleaning, laundry, post office, grocery store, give the dog a bath....the list goes on and on and on....

Now whether you spend your days sitting in this...

So, the lives of us Stay-at home/Work-from-home/Learn-at-home Parents is a bit different than that of you career-driven business people...But regardless, we all work so so hard to take care of our families.  Thanks to us all :) 

Hope you enjoyed today's blog, and hope you come back tomorrow!  Have a great Tuesday evening :)
