I met with my friend, Diane, yesterday. She's the one that helped me set up my business through the credit union. She actually decided to stay home with her daughter and start a marketing business.
She actually is going back to work Monday because financially, they just can't make things work.
We talked about how hard it is to have a business and to be a full time mommy. The whole thing about it is hard because the reality is if you want a business to work you really have to bust your ass and if you're not doing that then it's hard to get a new business off of the ground.
The flip side of that is that you don't want to bust your ass because that's why you're staying home with your kid in the first place! To raise them and not have them in daycare.
So, I think trying to have a business part-time is a great idea...but conceptually just doesn't work as well as I had thought.
That's not to say that this summer I won't go back out there and start marketing when Grammy's in daycare.
