Almost everyone I know has two or three jobs. I am attending college now, I know students that are here full time and working at least one job, some part time, but some even full time. Two of my children were going to college full time and working full time. I am glad that my oldest has finally graduated and my middle child has decided to take a short break from full time class work. It is a kind of life style that leaves no time for friends family or any kind of down time. I guess it wouldn't be so bad if she wasn't looking at 8 more years to complete her degree.

As for me, I have done the trying to do school and raise kids or work full time and be a full time mom. It doesn't really leave much time for also becomeing a mover and a shaker. Now, all of my children are of adult age, I will be doing something, who knows what I am darn near 50, but I still have a lot of ideas.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
