What to do on Mother’s Day in the Home Office?
By Jeff Zbar | May 10, 2009
What a conundrum…
If you’re an overworking work-at-home dad, it’s time to power down the PC, make some breakfast and coffee and focus on the woman in your life.
If you’re a work-at-home mom, it’s a great morning to tell the fam to make it a special morning (and to drag you away from your laptop and spend some time with the family).
Some tips for all:
- Pack a lunch and plan a day to some local site or place of interest - the park, the beach, the mountains (depending on your locale).
- Turn off the phones, rent some movies (chick flicks - defined by whatever your ‘chick’ likes to watch), draw the blinds, pop some popcorn, and do NOTHING but watch movies all day.
- Give her the hall pass to call the shots and do what she’d like to do today (a novel idea for any mom out there).
- Blog, Facebook or Tweet about her greatness as a mom. This is no time for humility.
Most importantly, enjoy the morning. Now, it’s time for me to get back to my wife before her Hall Pass is to banish her overworking hubby to the doghouse.
