Timing is everything
I have worked from home for just about a year now. My official start date with my new company was May 31 but I didn't go "live" until June 13. Last June 14 I was a little stressed out. My kids were adjusting to having me at home and trying to understand that I was working! I was trying to learn a new system in addition to a new company's philosophy. It was overwhelming but I knew once everyone adjusted it would be worth the stress (in the beginning). I mention to my husband and my mom almost weekly how much I love working from home. I love everything about it and I can tell you I take it very seriously. I am good at organizing my time and I make it all work. Sometimes that I means I'm up and working at 5am but then it means I don't have to stress about how I'm going to get one of my boys to their doctor's appointment in the afternoon. It's wonderful and I feel truly blessed. I love the company I work for, I love working from home and I love my co-workers. Recently my sister asked me if I wished I had this job when the boys were babies. My response was No. I believe this job came along at exactly the right time in my life. I'm not sure I would have appreciated quite as much as I do had I not struggled with making it to an office day in and day out for 16 years and 7 of those years were done with kids and a 35 minute commute one way. The Lord opened doors for me and I walked through them. I am so very thankful.
