Hi LaurieKayJohnson! Welcome to CC. Except that we don’t have a farm or an internet business, I could have written your post. ;)

I went back to work this year since both kids are in college now (after being mostly a stay-at-home mom), and I am pretty sure it’s going to end up being a wash financially. It probably isn’t worth it, except that I’m already pretty old (had my kids in my mid-to-late 30s), so I thought even if it’s a wash financially in terms of reduced FA, it at least gets me back in the working world… where I assume I’ll have to stay until I am overcome by the infirmity of advanced age. May as well get started on that now before I’m completely grey!
