My wife has three jobs - one full time, the other two part time. Full time one is being a mum to both children, part time one is being a wife to me (part time because I am at work for 40 hours a week) and she is also a 2 day a week primary school teacher. She also volunteers at a toddler group and runs one of the Sunday Schools at our church.
We bought the house with a key worker loan so she is stuck in teaching until we have the money spare to buy them out. Somehow the immense wealth that contractors have does not seem to have materialised yet for us, although we are stonkingly better off than we were when I first made the leap about 18 months ago!!!!!Comment

My Mrs is a full time IT PM (permy). One of the reasons I made the jump to contracting is because, if the worst comes to the worst we can cover ourselves on her salary, leaving me free for the higher risk/higher reward contracts.
Our dog doesn't work though. Lazy tulipe.Comment
