What about your other half?

These all sound very inventive, but where is dad/hubby/sig other during all of this?  I have  a 2 1/2 yo and 5 y/o at home with me all day.  I get up at 5:30 work until 6:30, shower dress, get Dad up and around get 7 y/o up and off to school.  Clothe and feed the other 2 and sit back down to work for MAYBE 30 minute stretches until it is time to go to preschool, get out of elementary.... Evenings are even worse because then Dad is home and vying for his share of attention!

Dad feels very left out if I say I have to work in the evenings, although I do still work a little bit here and there.  If I worked at night the way some of you do, I'd be in divorce court!  When do you find time for "adult time" to sit, talk, cuddle.... you get my drift!

I admire you all!  If you can do this and keep him happy to, KUDOS!  I have to quit at 5 for supper, baths, bed, "adult time" w/ Dad.  I max 1000 lines/day .  Next fall 2 oldest in school all day, #3 going to daycare 3 days a week (Tues-Thurs, I think)

I'd try to use your onshore addy and emphasize that you're EFL (English as First Language) if pursuing MT.
