Honestly, every day. I never saw myself as doing something like this, it just kind of worked out that way. I have an obscure artsy degree that I absolutely LOVED taking, and went into major student debt to obtain, and I would really love to be able to use it in some capacity. I live in a small, working-class city, however, and it is essentially useless here. My husband's hours are all over the place, including evenings and weekends, so I would really need to find a 9-5 M-F office job to be able to make anything after daycare costs for my own three kids. Having only worked retail management since university, however, and taken mat leave three times, my resume is pretty pathetic. So here I am.
I'm really trying to find ways to keep myself more mentally engaged, in the hopes that I can grow to like this business more. I've terminated my "problem" clients, upped my rates a bit and reworded my contract in the hopes that new and future clients will be a better fit. Now that the weather is getting a bit better, the little ones and I can go for walks during the day while the big kids are at school, and I have big plans for the summer, including revamping my backyard and starting a garden with all the kids.
This is the best option for us right now, but I'll confess, if the opportunity came to drop everything and move back to a bigger city, where I could use my degree, I'd jump on it.
