From personal experience, this Redundant Mammy spoke a lot
about making a plan but left it much later than she should have. There are many
projects we would all like to have done, but life took us in different
directions BUT it is never too late. If you don't already work outside the home
but know that you are going to have a lot more time on your hands when you
become a "Redundant Mammy" start your research now. Dream the dream
and plan ahead. Up skill so that you can be ready to apply for that job you
know you would be really good at. Research the college degree you never got
around to study for, or let the female entrepreneur in you take over and look
what business or service is missing in your area. If you are currently working
outside the home you too should plan ahead for the extra time on your hands, up
skill, extra study or maybe even a new hobby. Believe me there is a void where
all the time was spent doing Mammy things but the good news now is that is your
time! So , plan ahead and let us know how you get on.
Well done, Evelyn, on your resolve to make a plan........I'll be watching this space carefully to see if you deliver! (You have been warned.)
