[quote=UCGal][quote=njtosd]I am a registered patent attorney – although I am not currently working (well, I’m a stay at home mom – people differ on whether that counts as work). [/quote]
For the record – as a mom who chooses to work outside the home because being a SAHM is too hard for me – you work!!!! I don’t have the temperament or skill set to be a successful SAHM. I have total admiration for those that do it well.[/quote]
I have admiration for those who do it well, too. I’m probably not one of them (especially if you take into account the numerous opinions of my kids). Seriously, though, I am probably going back to work at least part time some time in the next year. I’m a little concerned about it – I don’t tend to switch gears quickly, which has led my husband to call me dos girl. But I need a bit more mental challenge than arguing with my kids over whether perusing the Lego magazine satisfies their homework reading requirement.
