Tee_N_DC's Profile | Work It, Mom!

About me:: In terms of my work/life balance style, I wake up everyday around 5:30AM to feed the dogs and do some light house keeping (i.e., laundry). I leave the house for work around 7:45 AM and drop one of my two kids off at day care. I get to work around 8:45 AM, and do not get home until about 6:30PM. I usually have to run at least 1 errand afterwork, but manage to get dinner on the table around 7:30 PM. The kids are typically in bed by 8:30 AM. Suffice it to say, my days are long. My husband works from home and helps a bit, but not as much as I would like.
My interests:: Cooking, reading and listening to music.
How I de-stress:: Read, listen to music (Like I am doing now), go out with friends, or partake in pampering (i.e., manicure, pedicure and a facial).
Best advice I've gotten:: My career counselor once told me to, "contract out as much as you can". In other words, instead of spending your free time cleaning the house, get a housekeeper. Your free time is worth the cost.
Adjective to describe me:: Witty
My favorite book:: Anything written by J. California Cooper
My favorite movie:: Chocolat
