Aw, hell yeah

As a work-at-home parent (or WAHD), having the kids home all day every day for the 2 week winter break can be a bit, shall we say, DISTRACTING. My productivity levels were about as high as an unsupervised and disenchanted college intern who just discovered the subtle pleasures of Minesweeper. So it is without any shred of guilt that I say I’m exploding with joy that the little shitheads — I mean ANGELS — are back in school today.
Even despite my 9-year-old’s comment, “You’re just happy to get rid of us.”
Yep! Don’t let the school door hit you on the ass on the way in!
Can I get an amen?

RAmen to that. Right now I’m counting down the days until ~I~ go back to school. The boy went back to school last Thursday, but I’m still at home with the other two until next week. I’m not sure how it is that I used to stay at home full time, because apparently I both hate it and suck at it.

Oh, not me. I miss them when they’re gone. I’m a sap, I know, but I do. Also, my older kids are of an age where they’re actually helpful, so I’m losing my child labor, too.

I finally can understand what you mean about the level of “un”productivity. I stayed home for a week because our little one was sick. I figured I can finally catch up on things around the house when in fact I got absolutely nothing done! I’d have to say “cheers” to those who work part time, take care of more than one kid, and take care of the household chores.
