You must all think I am crazy now. What with all that I have been going through these past few days, I had the gall to get myself an 8 hour a day job?!? Please. Hear me out. I am sure my reasons will make sense after my explanation. Firstly, when Paulie first learned that I was sick, he got worried and asked me if I was gonna be okay continuing without him to help around. Of course I knew I can't continue with our present setup any longer, so we agreed that he would be going home next week or the week after that. So there's one good news for me.
About the job, I thought that instead of me having no boundaries as to what time I'll finish with my freelancing work and exhausting myself in the process, why don't I get a job which tells me to stop? I know being a workaholic is the main reason why I am in my state of health right now, and freelancing just worsened it. So this opportunity came up (thanks to my sister), it's web content writing stuff, so I'll still be writing and my Canadian boss tells me that 40 hours a week is all he's asking for. So my plan right now is to drop all my other internet activities which eat up all the time that I should have spent sleeping or resting, and focus on working JUST eight hours a day, five days a week.
I actually computed and was shocked to find out that I work in front of the computer 12 hours a day, sleep six hours and spend the other six cleaning the house and taking care of Svet. With the new schedule, it leaves me 3 hours to rest, rest which I direly need. So it's a good plan, yeah? Told you you'd see the wisdom of my decision. :-p

that's just fine, and no youre no crazy
Good for you. Looks like I better think about doing the same, too. I've been working from home for at least 16 hours a day. Your post got me into doing some real thinking... Thanks!
Hope you can drop by: http://pinayproject.blogspot.com
Hi, Kaye! Thank you for this post. Alam mo un, ako rin naloloka na, how I can squeeze in all my online activities in one day, doing some housework while taking care of our almost 2 years old tot. Super pumayat talaga ako. I always ask ate peh, how you're all able to do these things. Tama yan, you're putting limit and prioritizing your health.
mwah!
It's good that you think about your health also. At okay yan regular online gig na.
are you still working for that company?:) kasi wala ka ng time for urself masyado..
stop muna ako making comments....I'm famished!...he..he...:)
i do share the same question that Zoan raised...marce always remember that health is wealth kaya Ok na Ok tong bago mong online gig- you have a job at home, a time to sleep earlier and a time with your family:)
wow thats a lot!
okay dont forget to care for your health too!
if you have job you have salary :D
sometimes I no job I just do blogging
having a 40-hour a week job is like you are already working in a office except that nasa bahay ka pa rin. kamustah na ba yan?
how about taking a nap in between works...
we need rest time a day marce to energize...and we'll become productive...
of course you can take break, go vacation if you like :D your brain need rest :D
now earn money while we are young then rest when old
I love jobs that mean I have work to do and get pay.
now you are WAHM, you can organize your time better :D
