How about working today?

The list of advantages for working at home just goes on and on. One of them is being able to pretty much control how much work you do. I have to keep something going on pretty much part-time hours to contribute to the family finances but I still have a lot of say-so in how much I work.

My work has slacked off the past few weeks but I didn't let it rattle me. Now the utilities, which I take care of — among other things, including groceries — with my earnings are due and where is the money to pay them? Not in my pocket. That's okay, I'll just ask for some more work.

The saying is, Be careful what you ask for since you just might get it. That held true for me. I've got a whole long list of assignments since I spoke up yesterday. One has to be thankful for not only work but for the ability to say how much of it she wants. Now I have that to do plus the grocery-shopping!

children.

Wishing you only the work that
you can handle.
