If you could quit your job and stay home...

what would you want to do?

for me its a no brainer.....I would want to get my Scrapbooking/card making business moving again. I would create all day long!

I was laid off for 2 months resently, and I did just that....but of course, that really doesnt pay the bills!! Chat Icon

OMG I always make up this awesome schedule in my head - I do this when I can't fall asleep. It is like this:

10AM wake up, eat breakfast, work out for an hour or two

Noon make a nutritious lunch and eat it

clean for a few hours, go for a walk, maybe do some window shopping, do some reading

then around 5PM i would start cooking a FABULOUS gourmet meal

After meal, I would love to have friends over for some dessert during the week or drinks on the weekend

Sounds boring doesnt it? BUT WONDERFUL!!!!! LOL

I'd ride and train every day. No doubt -- I'd be at the barn all the time. I'm not sure if I would turn pro again, but I would definitely own and operate my own barn.

Re: If you could quit your job and stay home...

I think I'd want to do volunteer work at animal shelters etc.
If I won the Lotto and didn't have to work, I'd want to start an animal rescue group or a shelter of my own...

I always joked that i wanted to be a housewife minus the kids...if i could...i would go take my tae kwon do classes all the time or workout...volunteer with some animal related thing and get back out there doing photography and art more.

First, I would go back to school and finish my nursing degree!!

Then I would have a very neat home, decorated like Better Homes and Gradens. I would make fabulous meals every night..maybe breakfast too. And I would be able to fit a real workout routine into my day rather then just my 45 min walks.
And I would go hang out with my Mom while she watched my sister's kids and shop too! Ahh...what a life!! Chat Icon

I would eat super healthy, exercise as least two hours a day! Continue with my tennis and horse back riding lessons.

Oh my gosh...I would do it in a heartbeat!

I am not 100% sure what I would do - I'd like to say continue my education, keep an amazing house, learn to do other things like cook or photography, do some volunteer work, take better care of my self (healthy cooking, exercise, etc).

Honestly, I'd love to quit so I could just walk dogs & pet sit for a living. (Since that won't pay the bills it'll just be a dream)

I'd volunteer with animal charities.

I'd definitely like to take a lot of classes & lessons like.....photography, tennis, kickboxing, piano, guitar, etc.

And I'd love to actually join a gym so I can workout more than I already do.

If I could I would absolutely. I would be at the gym or working out more, my house would be clean..and I would definitely be volunteering at Little Shelter. I wish I had the time to do that!

If $ wasn't an issue, I'd go for walks everyday & take the train & get off at different stops that I'd never been to & just explore the neighborhood.

And I'd visit my mom during the day so we could go shopping & just hang out.
