At the end of this month i am being made redundant With my husband's increasing care needs i am considering working from home and was wondering what experiences people had of this?
My husband has recently started going to a day centre one day a week for 5 hours - not entirely successful but not disastrous either. We will persist and it may be possible to increase this to two days in due course.
I need to work as this is our primary source of income (i am only 50), not to mention for my own self worth, esteem and sanity! If I work from home i will still need to visit clients (if i get any!) and this will hopefully help with my need for social interaction with others.
Does anyone out there work from home around their loved ones needs? How has this been for you, what strategies have you worked out to enable it to be successful and any other tips, comments etc would be most welcome.
