Did you make your decision to SAH/WAH/WOH ft/pt based primarily on objective/tangible factors, or with your heart?

I'm usually in bed by 10, but I was up late due to special circumstances relating to my grandfather's death yesterday.

I don't think sick kids should be left with a nanny. That is my opinion. You have a different one.

They are still 3 opportunities that could happen, just because it isn't your individual experience, doesn't mean the opportunity is not there.


You listed one for the wohp.

That is so me.. I was always the one to get up with the kids, but I have a heck of a time going back to sleep... sometimes I would just give up and fold laundry or something instead.

I didn't assume anything. You did. You assumed that I thought she would take them to DC. I asked her in a separate question would she.

If I recall correctly, California has some basic regulations on lunch and breaks that one is entitled to within an 8 hour work day.

You also have the opportunity to go home and have your nanny stay late. You could catch a nap then too.
