i have been there. woh f/t, woh in education with a school schedule, and also was a sahm. for me, i think if you have a well paying job with the school schedule, it's worth it to keep. sure, i'd love to be a sahm. but if you are going to have to get a job anyway, might as well stick to what you have. at least, that's been my experience.

I WOH full time though with a relatively flexible schedule, and have been SAHM, and my two cents would be that even though it is hard at first to leave a little one in someone else's care, in the long run I'm so glad to have a career now that DS is in school. Yes, I could SAH and serve on parent-teacher things, but I like also having an identity that's all my own and not just being "mom". Being my DS's mom is, of course, to me the most important role, but I like having lots of parts of me that are not defined by being his mom. I tried work from home, and I never found it worked well -- I wasn't able to give DS or my work full attention when I was home... [ Reply | More

You have to stay on the monorail - so either Contemporary, Floridian or Polynesian. My feeling is - if you are going and only going once - go all out and stay at the Floridian. Call as soon as you can for the character breakfasts - the kids LOVE them - Chef Mickey, Princess ones - go for it. [ Reply | More

WL is more than the Polynesian and in better condition. Almost as close as the other three, newer rooms and 5 minute (max) direct boat ferry to the Magic KIngdom. [ Reply | More

I think it is very much worth it to stay at a place on the monorail line... We went knowing that the vacation was about 'them" and we actually were able to relax knowing that it wasn't about us at all and the day was out of our contraol but in a good way. Anyway, being on the monorail line made going back for naps and rest and pool time easy and made the trip a pleasure... [ Reply | More
