Being Mr. Mom does have a few benefits (coming to end shortly though)

Emmo, we're in the same boat. How long you been doing this? Was part time initially but am now fulltime for almost a year. Three little kids. It's actually easier to be doing a regular job than handling the kids. I also handle the house as well as yardwork and snowblowing. Not to mention cooking. Looks like I'll be doing this another several years as the littlest one is only 19 months and kindergarten doesn't start until they're 5.

Ahh, OK, I wasn't sure what you were referring to but I am tired and it has been a long week.

Since you brought it up, apples and oranges Bill, there is a difference.

Dear Tradesman,
Welcome to the forum!
All are welcome.........we are all different ages, and are on at different times.
We are from all walks of life.....all different vocations.
I'm on all different times, my schedule as a firefighter varies greatly.
I know Will from La. is into his 70's.........Termy is in his 20's, or perhaps even younger.
We are generally very easy going and friendly, and try to be helpful.
Dispite what this thread looks like, they don't all go straight into the gutter..........

Stick around and enjoy, and contribute if you feel led to......

Boy, that great TJ! And you're right, age is meaningless, it's all about what you are at heart.
