Elf On The Shelf – My Life’s Work

By Tara Wilson December 3, 2013

I’m sorry to make an announcement that I won’t be around here too much anymore – I’ve got a new full-time job.

Senior Elf on the Shelf Mover-Arounder

A job that not only comes with a super-fancy title, but also includes bizarrely random shift work, often including panicked reporting for duty in the middle of the night, and no money whatsoever.

Now I know that you are wondering how you too can make absolutely no money from home while working for your children being your own boss. I will tell you how!

Refuse to let one of those weaselly elves into your house, but cave like a house of cards when your child sees the enormous display of elves in the store.

Tara is gainfully employed by the toughest 3 female bosses she has ever had (well except for that one accounting manager who hated her). The pay sucks, but the cuddles are awesome. She drinks a lot of coffee, uses humour as a defense mechanism, and lives in fear of what lurks in her backyard. Keep Tara company on her unfortunately-named blog Don’t Lick the Deck, where she talks about her husband Nerdguy; her 10 year old and twin 8 year old girls; parenting autism and ADHD; and her inability to shop without creating disaster. She is regular contributor to Parentdish.ca who have not yet filed a restraining order.
