Besides being a wife for 42 1/2 years and Mom to (37 years)two boys!!! I worked for insurance companies for 5 years. I burned out as a loan officer for a bank in 1998 after 28 years, then worked as a accounts payable clerk @ our local school district office for 8 years. Now I am retired and love it!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Looking forward to the responses though.

Heh, it gets me all fired up when I hear that being a mom or just a mom isn't a full time job.

It's a very demanding job and not being paid in monies, hugs and kisses off course, which is more rewarding!

Being a mom is MEGA IMPORTANT. Enough said. I always worked out of my home while raising four kids but it makes me no better person than a stay at home mom. Makes me a bit fired up too I guess.

I have been unemployed since NOV 08> No jobs to be found so I am now getting our farm up and running. Beef calves, chickens for eggs & freezer. Large garden for canning. Remodeling a house that I had bought in my "independent" stage, getting it ready to rent. Maid to my DH, Mom to 2 grown (not grown up) sons. Mimi to what until last weekend I thought was 2 boys seems my oldest son has children everywhere. I now have 3 GS and a GD. Life is never dull at my house. Always some sort of DRAMA going on. I keep looking for a job (like I have time for one) and God will put me where I am supposed to be!

My job is not as impressive or exciting as some of the ones posted. My 8-5 (and sometimes overtime) job is as a Data Transfer Technician. I think it would be fun to have a job as a full time quilter.
