TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I understand where you are. I am a contractor who typically works too much.
I work only offsite, in my home office. I have not 1 or 2, but 5 kids aged
11 months to 8 years old (one set of twins aged 3 and an almost five year
old). We have in-home child care every day so that I can work. My husband is
a trader who works nights so he gets to spend some of his day with the kids.
It may sound funny, but my husband and I actually have to plan times when we
can be together alone. We try for an hour a day, but it usually only works a
few times a week. We hope that within a few years, I will only be working
part time so that we both can settle down a little and actually enjoy those
little things more.
Talk to me anytime.
