Some days I wonder what my role is? Who am I? Am I the maid? Am I the Grocery purchaser? Am I the repiar Man? Am I the seamstris? Or am I the Laundry Lady, the cook, or the taxi driver. Plus our household needs my income so I have taken on the job and a WAHM also. I just thought I would share a few of my tips to help juggle all your secret idenities.
Figure out your works schedule. Make sure there’s flexibility just in case a situation may occur. If this is your first time working from home, it may be a little difficult at first. Your daily routine she be your main focus; always allow time to switch roles from mom to working mom. If you find yourself working some evenings make sure you put this sweet babies to bed first. Involve your children in your job no matter who small of a task you may have them doing they will love being able to work with mommy.
Keep updated on your childrens activity schedule. Don’t miss any important school functions, plays or games. Once the weekend rolls around put your work away and spend time with your family. Remember when you were young and your mom had to work. Use your own life experiances to model after, no matter what the circumstances were. The most important thing is I want you do is once your job is finished for the day put your work away and be done. Don’t let it slip into your home life. Keep them work and family seperate.
If all those roles sneak up on you and you become tired, crabby and grouchy, then you might notice that it starts doing the same thing to your children also. Put everything away and relax. Those jobs, roles and secret idenities will be there waiting for you tomorrow. Spend time with your family and enjoy life.
