I'm a mom. That keeps me pretty active!
My daughter just learned how to walk without holding onto things, so she's sneaky! And of course trashes the house right behind me as I clean. Its finally warming up here, so we're always outside, too!0 -
I'm mom like you and sit most of the day at my full time job. Luckily my new office has a gym, unluckily, my muscle/knee is off, so it's yoga only for me right now. ;/ honestly i think i may kill someone if i can't do cardio soon.0

Hey, I can't imagine all that but I'm right there with you on the urine holding. The only time I am up from my desk is if I have to pee or collect pee. ewwww0 -
Thank you for your service as well. Part of what I love about this job is it is just like I am still in uniform but I get to wear jeans everyday! I do miss flying though....my AF aircrew career was cut short by a nasty case of the bends. I did go on to fly on helicopters in the Army after that though....Flight medic - USAF
Nice! I was a flight mechanic on C-9s back in the day!! Loved medevac until I became a patient on one.
I have a daughter who is a medic (4N0) at Hurlburt Field.
That's usually the case. LOL!
Hats off to you and your daughter for your service to our country. Takes a special breed!0 -

I feel like I should add that I am a JUVENILE probation officer. I specialize in juveniles with drug abuse issues. Imagine having 20 teenagers. Mother of God.
If you've done it longer than a year, it must be a calling for you! God bless! :flowerforyou:
Not quite a year. I just graduated college in July. It can be terribly frustrating.
I can imagine. I have dealt with adults with drug abuse issues. Teenagers though...ugh!0 -
An accountant (when I can find work) and a full time student.0

I have a separate planner just to write their appointments with their counselors and other stuff because God forbid a teen be even slightly self-sufficient.0 -
I'm general manager at a busy brewpub and a mom. Keeps me busy and on my feet a good deal. Plus, the beer is really good...like really good.0

Mom and full-time jewelry designer....my studio is at home though so it allows me to go to the gym/walk the dog when I want, and also make healthy lunches/snacks. However....I also gained the majority of my weight while doing this (sitting for 10+ hours and eating crap because I was busy building a business!) - just realizing now it is all about making myself a priority and not making excuses! :ohwell:0

Database engineering and development for a large hospital network. I get to yell at insurance companies all day long.0

I'm an architect and mom. The mom part keeps me pretty active, but architects are notorious for sitting hours reviewing and refining construction drawings, lol!
I work for an Architect. I do the accounting and we have a female Architect in our office who does just that: mom, review and refine.
