    Working at home is more productive

    I have 3 kids (2,3,5) and working from home is a nightmare! We work usually early in the morning 5-7am and late at night, sometimes till 1am, when they go to sleep. There are prons and cons. For people without children is the best solution, but for us is time to look around for office space:)

    Second hand shop -good idea?

    Why is that? I have no intention to do that, because I want to offer, what charity shops don't have. They sell only 5-10% of baby/kids clothing and I want to sell ONLY that. No women's/men's/shoes/books etc. Agnes
