Oh yes, this lesson can be so hard for us
women, because in the past family and
friends were our salvation from the job.
However, self-employment changes that,
especially if you truly love your work.
What use to be your escape (when a loved
one called) could now be an intrusion.
I remember after I started my business, I
was so in love with it, I didn't want to
stop. I could work all day and evenings
too. Even when I wasn't working, I would
be on the computer. My boyfriend joked
that he created a monster. Then one
night, I was especially excited how one
of my programs was working so nicely and
I was going on and on about it. He
interrupted with, "Well, it should,
since you work all the time." I was
shocked; here was my mentor, my teacher,
who wanted me to succeed. My mentor who
taught me about the game and was now mad
because I could finally play.
Was it jealousy; student passes teacher?
No, he honestly didn’t understand my
love for my job and the game. Never in my
life did I make this kind of money. I
actually had money left over at the end
of the month. I actually had a savings
account. For the first time, I could buy
expensive clothes, and eat lobster for
lunch. Yes, I was like a little kid who
got the chance to play and discovered I
could be good at it.
Also, I didn't understand that he didn't
love his job. My work was my love, maybe
my first love. Therefore, we made a
compromise - he should get a hobby. No No
just kidding, but I did suggest it.
Actually, I decided to work like a normal
person, and set appointments during
normal business hours. Part of the
compromise was to never work on Sundays
and never ever give out my home phone
number.
This not only saved my relationship, but
my sanity as well. No matter how much you
love your job; there will come burn out
time. This also helped me learn how to
handle time when children came into our
lives.

Bean bag chairs are among the most
versatile furniture pieces available.
They are perfect for any part of the
house - great for providing additional
seats in the bedroom, accommodating
visitors in the living room, and all
kinds of other purposes. Because of their
light weight portability, owners can
easily move bean bags from one area to
another. Another advantage of bean bags
is that their simple forms make them
suitable for many different interior
styles. Plus, with the huge number of
bean bag suppliers today, consumers are

Almost any kind of fabric can be used
to make resilient and attractive covers
for bean bag chairs. Modern patterns,
stripes, and other fashionable designs
are best for contemporary interiors.
Floral prints bring cheer to dull decor.
Classic materials for more versatile uses
include velvet and suede fabrics, which
are often stain-resistant. Parents can
also find all sorts of fun printed bean
bag covers for kid and teen rooms.
Bean bag chairs differ in size and
filling. The filling plays a big part in
determining the comfort offered by the
bean bag. The most comfortable bean bags
are usually filled with smooth, perfectly
round Styrofoam pellets. Bean bags are
more than just comfy home fixtures. When
chosen with care, bean bag chairs serve
as stylish and practical additions to any
home or space. Consumers only need to
find a supplier offering varied cover
designs and quality fillings to have a
