Well this is my first time at blogging so here goes lets just jump in the deep end.

It always amazes me as an IC/VA specializing in medical transcription how I can go from days or weeks of being snowed under to having next to nothing for a week. We're on Thursday now and I've hardly spent any time at my computer this week working. But the weekend is a coming so I know that's certainly about to change. It seems to occur to everyone that Thursday/Friday are good days to dictate their work so that the poor soul who does their typing can manage to have it back on a Monday morning for them, and heaven help you if you don't.

Who ever said that working from home would give you more free time to spend with the children, well they certainly lied. My two wonderful daughters go to creche Monday to Friday till 3:00, but Saturday and Sunday when they're at home seems to be when I get the most amount of work, which means working in the evenings and often late in the evenings too!

That said, I wouldn't change my work for anything in the world. I so enjoy the freedom of being at home, not having to dress in corparate wear and I certainly don't miss the office politics. The big pluses are that I can be around for my daughter's when they need me, if they're sick or anything else. I get to attend doctor's visits, special days in their lives, and don't have someone telling me that I can't have the time off.

Well that's that for now.
