Yes, I am Crazy...
The kids start school a week from Monday. Yay Woo. Its that light at the end of the tunnel. It's what I have been working towards since I decided to be a stay at home mom. I will probably cry my eyes out when I get back to an empty house.... at least for a few minutes. Right until I run through the house, then head off to a hot bath with lots of bubbles... and leave the bathroom door OPEN.
Next week, I start my classes for certification as a child care provider. I plan to do before ad after care. Which means I will drop kids off and pick them up after school, and keep them til mom and dad get off work. When I fully licensed, I will get $75-$80 a week per kid, and work from 7 AM til 8 AM, and then from 2 p.m. until about 5 p.m. I can have four kids here besides my own. So... $320.00 a week for part time work- that's good money by any standards. And tax free, as I earn it under a German Tax ID number.
Its a bit of a racket, I'll admit, but it is a service that needs provided. Being paid to stay at home and play with kids.... Fly kites, go to the park, walk in the woods, make snacks...
And, yes, I do take paypal!
