LO is still too young to really enjoy outings, so if we go out it's just for me. </p> <p>I never really got to have a REAL job, so I missed out on that. I will finish my BS though and hopefully get a job when LO is a few years old. So I don't miss the work I was doing, but I do look forward to expanding my career-horizons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-144026 Tue, 01 May 2012 16:20:55 +0000 Honeybee 144026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No! I love being at home, even though I am working way harder right now than I ever have in my entire life, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-143032 Tue, 01 May 2012 01:30:03 +0000 Boogs 143032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I miss the paycheck, but that's about it! I don't miss having a boss, I love being my own boss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-143026 Tue, 01 May 2012 01:20:05 +0000 looch 143026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I miss the adult interaction and the paycheck! I love my son and the time we spend together, but sometimes it is too much togetherness. </p> <p>I don't miss the constant stress and the unending afterhours calls and meetings. We covered all time zones, so we'd always have conf calls super early or super late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142876 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 20:13:18 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 142876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Not at all! I still choose to spend my days with LO so I obviously don't miss it that much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142866 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 20:02:53 +0000 heffalump 142866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Grass is always greener on the other side! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142861 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 20:00:39 +0000 Rubies 142861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do miss my friends and the hustle and bustle and when I go back to visit with the baby, I miss it even more. I do feel the itch to go back to work and/but I know that once I'm back, I'll miss being home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142858 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 19:58:09 +0000 Cchoi4 142858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought I would but I enjoy being with LO. I do miss being with other adults, chatting, and feeling like my brain is being used. But I quickly remember how stressful work was and how crazy some of my coworkers could be... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142850 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 19:53:43 +0000 heffalump 142850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Baby Boy Mom: I don't miss those things at all. Is that bad? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142825 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 19:41:26 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 142825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I miss the adult interaction and mental stimulation, but mostly no. I really do love spending my days with LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142817 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 19:36:19 +0000 IcebergMom 142817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I miss the people and the coffee breaks. I don't really miss the job. Not yet anyhow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142767 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 18:52:36 +0000 chopsuey 142767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet. I'm guessing by the time I start missing it my kids will be school aged and I can head back (at least part time). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sahms-do-you-miss-working#post-142760 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 18:48:54 +0000 heffalump 142760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually it's a no way for me, but sometimes I do miss it. Especially when I see my friends from grad school talking about their work and amazing things they're doing to help people. But when I really think about it I do feel like my place right now is at home with LO. </p>
