I am having a baby via c-section Dec 10. I am trying to get myself and house ready for the arrival. After that comes my daughter, hubby, the dog. Not to mention the work from home job. Whew! Tired out just typing that.

i normally work 8 hours a day 5 days a week, sometimes more hours and sometimes 6 days a week, i work for the forestry. however i was injured on the job this past april, and although i was ready to just wear a splint and go on working (injured my left wrist) my chief put me on medical leave, which i'm still on. so, when i'm not on my computer, which as been less since having a full cast put on nov. 4th, i have other things to do, cleaning house, as much as i can do one-handed lol, laundry, shopping, and scrapbooking, a little more of a challenge now lol. it's just me and my s/o and our dog, so no kids to take care of, mine are grown and his daughter lives with her mom and spends weekends with us.

I am a retired computer instructor who decided to take up residence on the internet and start earning a living there. It's a lot shorter commute to the office now. I get up at 5am daily, no need for an alarm, I just wake up at that time. I make my one minute commute to the kitchen where I put on the coffee to start my day, decaf though, I drink a lot of coffee and would be climbing the walls if I used caffeine. I then boot up the ole computer and hit the washroom to freshen up for the day. I then drink coffee and work my online business until noon, stopping every so often for a break and to get rid of some of that coffee. Once noon has arrived I am done for the day. I then move on to other things like a bit of yard work in our backyard and garden. I have heart problems that limit the amount I can do so it doesn't take long before I have to stop working. That is when I get out my guitar and practice for a few hours each day. You wouldn't know I practiced so much if you heard me play. :) I also love fly fishing and tie artificial flies. That's relaxing and doesn't require much strength, although I do have to hold my arms and hands out which takes a lot out of my but that's just part of my heart problems. Then my wife comes home from work and the rest of the day and evening are for us.
