NEW MINDSETS !

For someone who has worked for the last twnty five years in business, staying at home with two
young kids can be a daunting task.

The first thing that hits you, is the isolation.

I live in a neighborhood like most, where everyone works.

The lack of stimulation can hit you like a ton of bricks.

It took me nearly a year to ovcercome the isolation, and in future posts, I will share some coping strategies with you.

OPENING DAY !

FOUR NANNIES AND FIVE DAY CARE PLACES LATER, MY WIFE AND I DECEIDED
IT WAS TIME TO ACT !

I GAVE UP A GOOD JOB TO STAY AT HOME, AND TAKE CARE OF MY TWO GREAT
BOYS, AGES 3 AND 7.

AT AGE 56, THIS WAS A RISKY MOVE, I HAVE NO PENSION TO FALL BACK ON.

THE PURPOSE OF THIS BLOG IS TO HELP THOSE, WHO ARE CONTEMPLATING DOING THE SAME AS I DID.

OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT YEAR, I PLAN TO GIVE ADVICE ON A VARIETY OF SUBJECTS, INCLUDING HOW TO REPLACE LOST INCOME BY WORKING AT HOME.
