My jobs

It's a joke with one of my friends about how many odd jobs I have. Although I don't work "outside the home" here are some things that I do:

1) My main job is that I work for a family friend who owns a "forest product" company. I take care of the shipping of logs from here (midwest and east coast) to a veneer mill in China. Basically it's a lot of emails, faxes, spreadsheets, and stuff like that. Once the logs are bought, I oversee the shipping process and all the paperwork to get them to the mill. I started this after Emily was born and it's been a wonderful job from home.

2) As most of you know, Jeremy's mom is a speaker and writer through Proverbs 31 ministries. I edit her blog, help with her e-newsletter, and do some mailings for her.

3) I do math tutoring. I am currently just tutoring one student once a week, but I love it and it's a good way for me to keep up with my math!

4) I teach piano lessons. This is mainly just for fun as I only have 2 students and am not actively looking for any more! Maybe if it worked out. . . (in my "spare" time)

These are the jobs I get paid for. These are the ones I don't: cook, childcare provider, laundry doer, payroll manager (Jer's work), housekeeper, grocery shopper, bill payer. But I love staying home and wouldn't trade these jobs for anything. And the ones I get paid for are nice, too!

You're also lucky that I don't have a piano or I would be piano student #3! I think I would be the one to drive you over the edge.... :)
