It's almost like it's a crime to have this position. But.....if I say I am a Domestic Engineer, they will enquire what that is. Here is what I get to tell them:
Wife
Mother
Chef
Baker
Dry Cleaner
Dish Washer
Bus "girl"
Taxi Driver
Teacher
Nurse/Doctor/Surgeon
Finance Specialist
Cleaning Lady
Dictionary
Encyclopedia
Computer Tech
Secretary
Even after I go through this amazing list, I still get the question "Yeah, but what does it pay?" Well first of all it's not about making a living, it's about making a life. In my life I get paid with smiles & laughter and hugs & kisses. No, I don't work a 40 hour week, I work a 168 hour week. I don't get any vaction or sick days, and I will never get to retire. However, I would never trade my job.......I might have to change out of my pajamas :)
