Why I Love Working From Home

Earlier today Twitter was working long enough for me to find out that fellow WAHM Marie Ynami at Mommy Community tagged me to participate in this meme about Why I Love Working From Home. And since I truly enjoy what I do (for the first time ever since I graduated college ** years ago), I wanted to share the positive side for other moms who aren’t sure if working from home is right for them.

1. I can get my kids out the door for school and meet them at the bus stop in the afternoon.

2. I’m saving money on gas (my DH spends enough as it is with his commute across New England!)

3. I save money on clothes since I can live in jeans and sneakers (or even pjs, depending on the day!)

4. I can still volunteer at my children’s school.

5. I don’t have to deal with office politics.

It’s late so I’m cutting my list off there. Now for some other WAHMs to tag…

Lisa Braverman, Treece, and Tracy Roberts

Thanks for playing along with us. I forgot to add the “volunteering” bit to my list too - thanks for reminding me.

[...] My body won’t agree with me when the alarm goes off in 4 short hours but hey, I’m flexible. This is yet another blessing about working from home. [...]

This Meme is so much fun, Christina! I love reading everyone’s lists. And I’m noticing some definite trends among the WAHMs participating. You’ve got to love this community!
