| Kids play hard, and sometimes that means
| |
| | made me laugh, because I have pulled
|
| they play really loud in the midst of
| |
| | similar tactics just trying to get a
|
| exploring their worlds and role playing
| |
| | moments peace! And, yes, I have to admit,
|
| with siblings and friends.I know with my
| |
| | I have used them
|
| kids, if I'm not hearing some degree of
| |
| | to make my business workable too!Oh I
|
| noise; [i.e. play], from them, it
| |
| | know... I hear some of you saying... why
|
| probably means one of them is not
| |
| | don't you just get your kids into
|
| feeling well, or they are coming down
| |
| | daycare, or find a babysitter or a Nanny
|
| with a cold.My world is blessed with two
| |
| | to take them. Well, that makes perfect
|
| very artistic and rambounous boys; 5
| |
| | sense of course. But for the many WAHMs
|
| years and 2 1/2 years old. With their
| |
| | who have given up jobs to work at home,
|
| play and with their
| |
| | first, they do not want to be giving the
|
| singing; [they love to sing Country
| |
| | majority of what they earn to those
|
| music at the top of their lungs!]; they
| |
| | services; although they are very valuable
|
| have the ability to raise the noise level
| |
| | services. And, second, there's that
|
| in our house to a "heaven-bending" volume
| |
| | guilt.The guilt we feel because it was
|
| in 9 seconds flat!And while I loved to
| |
| | our choice to stop working at jobs and
|
| hear them hard at play, the sporatic and
| |
| | stay at home so we could be with our
|
| unpredictable noise [play], posed
| |
| | kids. That was a conscious choice we
|
| challenges at times when I was doing
| |
| | made. So when we start looking at having
|
| sales calls, or when clients called with
| |
| | to farm our kids out to daycare,
|
| final questions about starting a business
| |
| | babysitters, or bringing in a Nanny,
|
| relationship with me.Clients don't wait,
| |
| | guilt; as to the purpose of why we were
|
| when they want to have questions answered
| |
| | staying home in the first place starts to
|
| and they don't always call at the best
| |
| | manifest.So what is the solution? Is
|
| times. Sometimes these calls would come
| |
| | there really a solution to how to make
|
| through when the kids were eating or
| |
| | sales with noisy kids in the house? Well,
|
| doing activities that were not so noisy.
| |
| | I don't know
|
| Great! But.... most of the time, they did
| |
| | if this solution is for you... But I do
|
| not!5 year olds are pretty predictable.
| |
| | believe I found the right solution for
|
| You basically know when they are going to
| |
| | me!I don't have to hide in the closet
|
| make noise. But, if you know anything
| |
| | anymore. I don't disappear into the
|
| about
| |
| | bathroom to talk muffled into the towels,
|
| the 'terrible 2's syndrome', you're
| |
| | lol! I no longer work 5 to 9 hours a day
|
| already familiar with the
| |
| | on the phone during play time, or any
|
| unpredictability of when the next scream,
| |
| | time, doing follow ups and sales
|
| or loud laugh will erupt!Some clients
| |
| | calls.Clients no longer call the house at
|
| understood. I would say: 'yes I know you
| |
| | unpredictable times, or at all for that
|
| can hear kids in the background. That is
| |
| | matter. My kids no longer have to worry
|
| why I do this business.
| |
| | about how much noise they make in the
|
| So I can be at home with them". For
| |
| | house! And, I'll still make a nice 5-6
|
| other clients, that was not okay. I had
| |
| | figure contribution to my family's income
|
| some near misses and some fair size loses
| |
| | this year!What did I discover to make my
|
|
| |
| | sales business work for everyone in the

| in bringing people in, to work with me
| |
| | household? Well.... that's another story
|
| in my business because of this home-based
