Why I love working from home: The short & sweet version

Kelly over at Spark Plugging WAHM 2.0 has a fun Meme going on and you could win a prize!

I love working from home for many reasons but the two main reasons are that I enjoy the flexibility and the online friend connections I have made over the years.

I am grateful that hubby is so supportive of my many work at home endeavors over the years. For quite a few years, I did direct sales and that took me out of the home to do home parties which were ultimately not my cup of tea but still a good money maker. I gave that up to focus on Internet/Affiliate marketing and am still trying to find my way and figure out what I want to be when I grow up LOL

I truly am grateful for the opportunity to work at home.

It's been neat reading everyone's reasons for why they love working from home and I hope you'll participate too.

I would like to tag Lauren, Anita, and Val to play too.

I love working from home. When the company I work for said they were closing offices and sending everyone home to work I will admit I was sad. I thought I would miss seeing my co-workers every day and the interaction. Well we found a cure for that, lunch once a week. It gives us time to see each other, catch up and complain about the job. Great times great times.

I would love to be able to work from home everyday. My work doesn't really need me to be in the office. Most coworkers that I work with on my project are not even in the same state as I am. But I'm not sure if I will be as productive as I'm in the office. I guess I have to put in certain rule so I can be truely productive. :)

Blog Trip Day 5: Explore the City

Here we are on the last day of the blog trip. It has been fun getting to know so many of you. Today we are exploring our city. My favorite thing to do, that we do about once a year and I hope to change that is spend the day at Six Flags Great America . I love all the rides and could go on them over and over. Hubby and my stepson are not so much into the spin type rides so I have to ride those alone. Oh well! We went there a few weeks ago and I had a blast. My favorite rides were Vertical Velocity, Superman and Revolution. Do you like amusement parks? If so, please feel free to share your favorites and where they are located. I would love to one day be able to visit them all over the world. How fun would that be? Next on our trip is the zoo. You definitely don't want to miss the Brookfield Zoo on your trip here. I haven't been there in a long time but would love to go soon. I love animals and they have quite the variety at Brookfield. I like Stingray Bay , Seven ...

Money Blogger Contest I Would Love to Win

This morning I found a link to a contest over at Money Blogger to win an ipod Nano . I will normally only enter contests that I have to blog about if I like what they have to offer on their blog. And this blog, I do like so far and even signed up for their feed. I found a very helpful post on how to get ideas for new blog posts already so I look forward to digging in a bit more. I would love to win this prize because Kev and I just joined a fitness center and it would come in handy as I'm on the recumbent bike and treadmill. Winner is chosen at random so wish me luck. Happy Monday!
