Now that I am starting to look for a full-time job OUTSIDE our home, again starts the debate with myself. Suddenly, I feel like it’s “not right” to start working, because my little Sanjo needs me. Even though I know that I will be working for his needs and his future, I can’t shake off the nagging feeling that a full-time working mom just isn’t as good as a full-time stay at home mom.
Then I remembered this particular episode on Oprah that I was able to watch. I remember the psychologist saying that “it doesn’t make you less of a mother if you choose to work full-time”.. I should start saying that repeatedly to myself, so that I can stop worrying that I’m a bad mother for choosing to work instead of taking care of my baby. It’s not that I won’t be taking care of Sanjo, I will still be taking care of him when I’m home, and during my days off. I just hope I can stop feeling guilty about working. If only my Bubby was earning enough for all our expenses, I can stay home. But we’re really struggling with our finances, and the online gigs I get aren’t enough to cover what we need.
So what is your take on this issue? Do you think that full-time working moms aren’t as good as full-time stay home moms?

Would really appreciate if you can find the time to help me out. THANKS! *kisses*

January has been a tough and difficult month for me. I didn’t get as much opps as I did the months before, and as someone who is supporting her partner in the expenses at home, it’s just not working out too well. I just received a text last night from a former colleague, and he referred me to the company he is currently with, and even went ahead as to have an interview slot scheduled for me tonight. Well, as much as I want to just stay home forever, I have to think of my family’s future as well. Wyeth raised their prices a couple of weeks ago, which includes Sanjo’s milk (S-26 Gold).
But, no worries friends. I will still be online everyday if ever I do land myself a job. I still need the extra income from my online gigs. We can never seem to earn more than enough nowadays, what with all the price increase in commodities. And I so want to be able to move out and have our own place, so I think this is a good way to go. Again, do wish me luck guys!
