Sure am. Have a Virtual Assistant business called Vineyard Virtual Services. Very new to working at home, but it was just the right time for my family after being in the corporate world for so long.

I do both...My full time job I work in sales and interior design for Lazboy and on my days off I do direct sales and sales training. I love it!
I sell creative memories, signature home styles, Beauticontrol, etc...

Yes! I am the Editor for www.todaysmama.com. Some days the juggle of being a WAHM is crazy but I'm really glad that I get to be there to see all of my daughter's "firsts".

You bet. I'll probably get my own office space soon enough. But, I will never give up my special time working at home. It's such a great atmosphere. I play music I like, stop and start according to my schedule and can keep my puppy on my lap as much as I like! Love it.

I work mostly from home but I also have the opportunity to network locally and meet with clients outside of the home. It's a good combination for me. I found when I was working solely from home (internet marketing stuff) I felt very isolated from the outside world.

My primary business is with SendOutCards...if anyone is looking for a distributor or would like to send a free card or two!

Hi,

I just join twitter a few hours ago. I already love this group!

I actually do both. I work full time and also have home business that I just started last month. My goal is to eventually be able to work part-time (on my regular job) and running my own business semi-full-time so that I can have more time with my special needs toddler.

My home business is with AmeriPlan. I have great support from my team. I am very glad that I joined them. I had learned a lot in such a very short time. :)

Yui

I work from home. We built a studio behind our home for my photography business. I love the commute. It is only 20 steps back!

I have been working at home for the past three years since my health forced me to find a new career. My main source of income is freelance writing at the present time. I have worked customer service and done some consulting as well in the past. I also have made and sold all natural bath and body products and soy candles in the past. I am looking into getting back into that part time if I can find a market for them here.

Hi, I'm a wanna-b WAHM. I have a website I've been working on for about 4 years. Made alot of mistakes, in the process of a total makeover on the site. My problem is there's just too much to do and too little time to get it done.

I've been working pretty hard the last few months on my site. Rewriting, networking and link building. I can't put my finger on exactly what is working, maybe a combination of "all the above". My traffic has doubled, my adsense earning have tripled.

If I could sustain myself for a year, I believe I could make my site profitable enough to be a WAHM.

I do! I work for an online charter school in Pennsylvania as a Special Education Teacher. It's tough but I remember my blessings everyday that I get to be home with my little guy!
