    WAHM's

    What do you do and how many hours do you put in?
    How do you slot this in with children, keep up with the house and get work done?
    Do you have any advice for a new business at getting the word about?
    TIA

    I don't get paid for it, but I do all DF's bookwork for his business and answering accounts queries from clients. At the moment I'm not doing much at all, we've just moved house so still trying to get everything in order! I am so behind though in paperwork it's not funny!

    I try and do at least a couple of hours a day, usually at night after DD has gone to bed and dinner is over and done with. I also try and do a bit during the day when she is asleep, if I don't have other chores that need to be done. It is tough, but I guess you learn to make time for it and sometimes the housework needs to slip a bit!

    time management.

    I do alot of my work when the kid's go to bed at night and once a fortnight DH takes over the kids for a day and I get as much as I can done.

    I dont let my work interfer with my family...they come first, not my job.

    I can sometimes work until 1 in the morning and still get up to the kids at 7.30. I usually on average put in 2 1/2 hours a night

    I do my work when the babies are sleeping, in the evenings and weekends. Just a couple of hours a day.
