Mandatory Work sounds good

March 25, 2012, Sunday, Day 25 ~ 30-Day Blogging Challenge prompt is DISCUSS SOMEONE ELSE'S BLOG ENTRY

This week entry "3-24-2012"  by BIG BAD WOLF is Howling got my attention. Right now, Mandatory Work outside the house sounds inviting and fun. Any type of work outside the house is inviting. I have not been in the regular work force since 2007 or 2008, I can’t remember which year. I do a little work online, but that isn’t the same as working outside the house or being in the general workforce.

I miss getting up every morning and getting ready to go to work. All right, I have to admit that isn’t the way I felt when I was going to work everyday. Now, however, I would like to go to work at a job where I get into my car and drive or even take the bus.

It’s amazing how my attitude changed when I became my mother’s caregiver and could no long go to work. Perhaps I need to get back into a routine as if I have to work outside the house. Maybe that would change my approach to housework and other in house chores. Don’t get me wrong, I like caring for Mom; it’s rewarding, educational, and sometimes amusing, still I think I would like to work outside the house (not in my yard) for a couple of days a week. Going to the grocery store and bank just isn’t the same as working at a paying job.
