In Reply to: 'scuse...keep calls short as I feel I must do these things in order to make money. No babies - here anymore, just retired hubs! :) nm
I work in the a.m. and then don't work until after my chidren are in bed. One is in school all day, the other is starting two full days of preschool next week. Right nor that means working usually until 4:00 a.m. since I also have another part-time non-medical transcription job, but it works well for me. I've been doing it for years. I also use called ID and wait to do my housework until the afternoon and have my older daughter help when she gets home.

Actually I wish we had some of your schedule...sm
school starts here in early August - I'd prefer it be closer to Labor Day and get out in early June.

Schedule with kids
I was in the same position. After a lot of years I figured out what works pretty good for me, and my company allows it, so does the hospital.
I put my son to bed. I often nap then until about 1 or 2 a.m. Then, I work until 6:30 or 7 a.m. (already got 5 hours in!). I take him to school, and in the morning if I am not tired, I will run errands, work on the house, do something fun. I usually take a nap around noon and then I will work after he is done with his homework from 4:30 to 6:30 (my hubby makes dinner).. that is 7 hours plus 1 hour off for lunch. I also then work on the weekend a few hours to get 40 when I need it, but that is usually in the early morning, so I can spend some time with my husband. Plus I get to spend time with him anway, and after he falls asleep, then I work. It sounds very complicated but it really isn't. And you actually get time for yourself at least to relax for a time, instead of working 8 hours straight and then chores and kids, etc.
Good luck! Remember it is tough to be a woman who does too much :).

People who file a return after April 15 will receive their economic stimulus payment, but probably later than the schedule shows. A return must be filed by October 15 in order to receive a stimulus payment this year. See the online calculator for an estimate of the amount you will receive.
A small percentage of tax returns will require additional time to process and to compute a stimulus payment amount. For these returns, stimulus payments may not be issued in accordance with the schedule above, even if the tax return was processed by April 15.

My schedule and my work -
Thankfully, until the last couple of months, I have never had to wait on work. In fact, my budget is set on 2000 lines a day which was my consistent production in a 6-hour schedule. If my schedule was based on the 1000 lines or so a day the company requires, I would not be waiting on work to be there, I would still be at production.
As far as going to school, in my life right now, that is a necessity as the stress of MTing is finally getting me down after the 15+ years I have been doing it. Also, I am lucky enough that I live in a state that college is completely free to me as long as I maintain a B average. So it would be no savings to me to quit.
Also, I got the second job to cover the shortage from the first job until it picks up again after the holidays. However, I am used to making $35-40 an hour at home and the new job only pays $14 an hour, plus I have to drive 30 minutes to get there and 30 minutes to get home now.
So, as I said before, I am doing what I can do!
Do you fix a schedule and work to it at home?
Do you fix a schedule and work to it at home?
If you are working from home like me, housework always seems to interrupt work. The doorbells, the children, the cups of tea etc etc.
I have tried working to a schedule but never managed to do so.
Have a set schedule, no kids, use caller ID...
I'm off by 2 every day, hubby not home until 7, so lots of time to do house stuff or go to appointments. I admire those of you who work at home, tend to kids, housework, etc.
Wow Medtype10--that is a crazy schedule!
How in the heck are you doing THAT?! You are incredibly amazing for doing that to help out DIL out like that. Can you say "angel award?!" Just incredible!
Fibro and work schedule
Hi. I noticed several people have fibro. I constantly fight with the pain and fatigue. I work only part time. How do others of you schedule your work and deal with the pain and fatigue. I need some good suggestions. Thanks.

Poor sleep schedule.
I haven't really had a good night of sleep since I had kids 11 years ago, but man am I tired! I can't decide whether to just give up and work all night and try and sleep while the kids are at school during the day or maybe start a sleeping pill, and I'm not a big medicine person. Right now I sleep from about 2-3 a.m to 6:30-7:30 a.m. I do go to the kids school every so often during the day so I'd hate to be all tired for that but I'm so tired I'm starting to get that drunk feeling. Anyone with kids work nights and sleep during the day? Can you wake up enough to participate in school activites? 
As an IC, I don't think they are allowed to have you on a set schedule. Other companies have
gotten in legal trouble because they were treating ICs as employees. With my IC job, I let them know when I can work and, if they need extra help, they will call and ask if I can do more, but they do not TELL me when to work.
checked the schedule, even filled out the
other info from my tax return.
I work too many hours to have a TV schedule BUT
My daughter was visiting from college during winter break and downloaded The Office. I didn't watch at first, just heard it while I was doing other things... but I just was drawn to watch. So when I finished 10 hours of work, we'd watch like 5 or 6 in a row. I'm almost caught up and this show is just SO funny to me.
So that's it. My favorite show to watch is THE OFFICE. Can't believe no one said it yet.
My work schedule, so I changed it sm
I went to something odd at work and I think it will serve us both. As the new schedule starts on Monday, I will have from Saturday at 2 p.m. until Wednesday at 2 p.m. off this weekend and I NEED IT. Then I work 2 evenings, two 10-hour days, an 8-hour day and I am off from 2 p.m. Sunday to 2 p.m. Wednesday.
Now to fit the PT job in and around that and still have more time off.
When my daughter was in plays, there was always a rehearsal schedule announced.

Update: I am waiting for doc to schedule an abdominal CT for me - sent my husband a message saying
that they will be scheduling me for a CT today or tomorrow. His answer: 10-4, I hope you get your health in order. Exercise please.
I am having abdominal pain, back pain, bleeding, etc. but I guess if I exercise it will fix all that.
Basically stick to a schedule. Laundry is only "housework" while I"m working. Keep calls sh
