Balancing work and home... email this discussion to a friend?

How do you balance your work time and the time spent at the office?
Do people at home complain that you are working too much or not enough?
Does work complain that you are working too much or not enough?
How do you make yourself get what you want done at work so you can delight in being at home?
What do you do to fully enjoy being away from work?

So you went from working long hours to not working and relaxing... That doesn't sound like it was easy. I am glad that you are here on myLot.


myLot reputation of 95/100. Lakota12 (10674)   ranked 13 out of 232 in office  4 months ago

was sort of forced in to retirement to take care of hubby and no it wasnt easy at all I would like to go back to work at something


myLot reputation of 95/100. whiteheron (912)   ranked 7 out of 232 in office  4 months ago

Perhaps you can do something... something light and fun would be good for you as if you are sitting at home and not liking it, that is no fun.

I did have to work a lot about 10yrs ago, my wife left me and I advanced at work to help make ends meet with my sons. I have to work extra hours then I used to and had my parents watch them before I got home from work. Eventually I was able to adjust to a more felxabe position. It was rough for the first 2-3 years, hardly being able to see my sons. I'm know it was hard on them as well not having either one of their parents around. I am glad now that they can understand the sacrifices I had to make in order to keep the family going strong.

It is good that you were willing to make the sacrifices for your sons.
I am glad that they now understand the need for them.Thanks for posting.

I find it an easy thing to get the balance. First, I work efficently which means I can finish nearlly all my work during the working hours, so I seldom work beside working hours. When I am at home, I do some housework every day. I hate doing so much housework one day and doing nothing the other day. I just do some every day and finish it all during the weekdays. And on weekends, I seldom do any housework. I spend weekends with my husband reading or going out for fun.

It sounds like you do things in a way that allows you to enjoy the weekends fully... efficently working, and doing a little housework every day... Thanks for posting.
