[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I am loving the advice I'm getting!  Not so much the random SAHM who feels the need to bash my parenting decisions but other than that its been great.

I should have said this at the beginning.  I am in healthcare so its not possible at all for me to work at home.  Its also not possible for me to come in earlier to leave early ( I see patients at very particular times of the day and the late afternoon is busiest).

I will deff. start to use my crock pot more than I do and try to implement many of the other suggestions.

My husband is deff. here )  He is an attorney in big law and basically works 24/7 even when he is home.  His income is the main one.  He also does not have the option of having a permanent work from home day (although he is able to from time to time, just not on a regular basis).

My son does STTN.  I guess that is why I'm hesitant to push the naps.

To the person who has meals delivered.  Can you tell me more about this? [b] Also who suggested the rice cooker, I [/b]have one but I have never used it.  Is it really that much easier than making rice on the stove?[/quote]

I'm not the person who suggested this, but I have one with a timer and it make all the difference. You can set it up in the morning, set the timer and it doesn't cook the rice until you want it to.  This works great if you are coming home at dinner time and want the rice to be ready.  It also means you don't have to be watching the stove while the rice cooks.  OK, I also could never cook rice right (yes, I am THAT bad of a cook)[/quote]
