I heard something on the news the other day that said if a stay-at-home mom made an income, she would make about $116,000/year. Wouldn't that be a good paying job! That's how much work it takes to be a mom. I think it's important that you do what's best for your health and for Morgan. I'm not sure how I would manage being a SAHM since I am a person who requires a lot of structure and action, but I think if I had to do it I could. Sometimes priorities in life take a different spin. It's not like you can't go back to work after Morgan's a little older. Especially with Dustin's schedule I can see how hard it can be while he's gone. Hopefully some other SAHM's can give you advice becuase I'm not very good at that <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

very interesting thread. i'm struggling to make this decision myself. it's seeming though that if I don't make the decision soon I may regret not having made it sooner due to ill health. it seems like a no brainer if income allows, which it does in my situation, but yet I still have such reservations. I'm going to go to a therapist (1st time) to get to the bottom of this situation b/c I realize I'm being ridiculous. anyway, I commend you for making the decision.

I love being home with my son.... bear in mind we homeschool so our schedule is around lessons and my health both.

I do my treatments, we eat breakfast together, and start out day. We do our morning lessons. play outside and then head back in for lunch. Our afternoons are very unstructured. We try to do school lesson after lunch but sometimes we get distracted and head back outside. Afternoons are either busy or relaxed depending on how I am feeling. Some days we play games, watch a movie or we play soccer in the back yard.

Allow for a bit of flexibility but have an idea on your head of what you want to accomplish each day. Start with a schedule but allow for fun do what ever moments.

I'm not a mom, 27 year old male, who just made the work to non-work transition. I love it. I sleep in every day...do my meds and treatments, without rushing, so nice, usually hit the gym everyday, I volunteer one day a week at the food bank, and ride and show horses. In my down time, I read and work puzzles, hang out / dinner with friends once or twice a week....I love "retirement".

Well Champ, now that you are home with nothing to do, perhaps we can expect more of your insightful and well researched words of enlightenment.

Awww, you poor old, bitter, un-happy man...

Hey! Maybe I will have the time also to sit in front of my computer and play on internet forums all day too!!!
