What do you do for a living???

[Mattie's Mommy]

I have been a self employeed kaleidoscope artist along with my husband since 1989. He is a wood worker and I love working with color . Therefore I lampwork the glass that makes our interiors in our kaleidoscopes plus other things. I am also a quilter and a long arm quilter (which means that I take someone quilt top and back along with batting and do the quilting on it.) I have a special machine that I do this on that takes up 1/2 of our garage that we had to convert over to my studio. Plus I do the bookkeeping, shipping, sales calls and our web site. If anyone is interested in seeing our web site PM me and I'll give it to you. Not sure if I can post it here. I have been very lucky to be able to do something that I love and that is to bring color into the world. Everyone needs color in their lives.
This allows me to have Mattie with me 24/7 which I am loving.

[Rusty's Momma]

I am a REALTOR. So.... if anyone is moving to the big'ol OK, let me know. Othen than that, I am momma to 2 boys (11-10) and Rusty. Wife of almost 15 years. I got married 4 days after I graduated H.S and have been married ever since.

This was an interesting thread to read through. Not a whole lot of repeats.

hmmm.not sure if i have posted here yet. I will have to read everyone's responses.

I own a property management company and manage residential rental properties (mostly single family) for some major investors out of california. I am super blessed to work for myself and am therefore able to be home when I need to be, and since I have my own office building, I take maggie to work with me every day

It is hard sometimes. very frustrating sometimes. but I wouldn't change it for anything.

I am hoping to open a doggie spa in the next couple of years. so look out for "Paw Spa". that is supposed to be a secret name so don't tell hehe
oh, and next door to the "Paw Spa" will be the "Ma Spa" where the pet owners can get pampered too. I suppose we will let non-pet owners in too I am so excited about this...but it is a couple years out still. I have to get my current company to where they can operate without me being there all the time. So once I duplicate myself, I will open the spa's. Come see us sometime if you are ever in Nashville

Well, currently I am not working as a paralegal, my boss was kind enough to give me some time off to come down here to be with her. I've worked there a long time and he's met my Grandmother before and really wanted me to be able to spend time with her while I still could. So, I have just been working on my websight and a friend of mine is a personal trainer down here and she offered half of her clients to me so I do some personal training in the afternoons when Nana is napping. I'm hoping to be able to bring her back up to my home in SC soon. We'd be closer to my Mother and she isn't doing well currently. She's already started loosing her hair and is not taking the chemotherapy as well this time as she did last time I want to be there for her but I don't want to leave Nana alone either and currently I'm the only one who was able to get work off to be down here so, hopefully she'll feel up to traveling soon so we can get back up there. If I get back up to SC I can do some of my paralegal work from home, and if I Nana wouldn't mind if hopsice came in for about 3 days a week I could go back to work...she hates feeling like she's being "cared for" though, she's very independent so it's hard to get outside help.
