Happy April 16th!

For the 3rd year in a row, I was fortunate enough to be brought on by my favorite CPA firm to do tax work for the busy season.

I have to say, it's a pretty great gig.

I worked 3 days (20 hours) a week for 8 weeks (with a big California Spring Break right in the middle!). Several of the people in the office are very close friends of mine (we also worked together at PwC), and I really enjoy their company. It's just refreshing to escape my Mommy role for a bit and dive back into my former life of business & order.

I have my own fabulous office, where I have some peace & quiet to work on my projects and feel a bit of accomplishment. On my working days, I go to bed earlier, wake up earlier, and just have an extra reason to be more disciplined with my schedule.

I love it.

All of that being said, I'm happy now to be back full-time with the kids & I'm ready for some seriously long, lazy, pregnant days of summer!!

Does this mean we can get together next week? I'm glad you had fun working!

That sounds like the perfect gig! What do you do for childcare? I'm afraid if I started something like that, there'd never be an April 16th, just more appeals, etc.

Enjoy the "downtime."

I was lucky enough to find an awesome nanny--the kids had a great time with her.
