Why I Work from Home – Photo Contest

Why I Work from Home – Photo Contest

I’ve been busy for the last few days using my laptop, camera and photo editor to win (big hopes here) a photo contest that Alice Seba, from Contentrix is hosting.  It’s all about sharing pictures to represent our personal “Reason Why” we work from home.  And we have a chance to win some awesome prizes.

I’m having lots of fun and you can join us there too.  Deadline for entries is Sunday, February 26, 2012 at 11:59 PM EST.  Winners will be announced on Tuesday, February 28, 2012.  Find the details for the contest at Contentrix.

UPDATE:  I Won! 

Here’s the video that I wanted to share that Alice and her team put together with all the pictures that were submitted.  It’s inspiring as to all the reasons why many of us work from home.  Enjoy!

Day 6:

One of the most enjoyable aspects of my home business is that it allows me to help others…but it also affords me the opportunity to help others outside of my work time…such as our nursing home ministry that I do with my family.  (This is a pic of me taking an elderly lady back to her room in the nursing home.)

Day 7:

To have something to work for…to dream of success  (I used public domain works with unrestricted rights…and spiffed it up a bit, then added some words to a quote from Mark Twain.)

Day 8:

Love working at home because I get to homeschool and I don’t have to miss out on those fun moments that you have with your kids…  This is a picture of my youngest acting goofy… like he does in 90% of our family photos.)

Day 9:

Love working from anywhere (with added benefits)… here’s a photo of me working on my laptop in another state and enjoying cuddle time with my nephew.

I feel like this photo says it all why I work from home… For the family. For the money.

Time with family…

And lastly, I threw together some “work at home” words that held some meaning to most home business entrepreneurs ….
