I do kitchen and home design — space planning, 3D CAD modeling, and also sell cabinets. I do make house calls to meet clients in their kitchens/basements/other space, and when cabinets are delivered to check on the installation, but most of my work is done on my Mac in my breakfast room. I also get some long distance clients (including a few who found me on imamother, thank you!) and those jobs are entirely from home.

I didn't know that food is paid for by the government. Which program is that?

Rubber ducky that sounds interesting.
How did you get involved in that?
Do you have a background in design?

I've always been fascinated by ergonomics and how people use space. I used to do graphic design (and still co-produce and lay out The Balabusta's Daily Organizer), but kitchen and home design has been my passion for several decades. 3D design is much more interesting than 2D! I was already designing spaces for friends (for free) when my DH suggested I do it professionally. That was about 13 years ago.

I love my work!

Some people are miserable because the sheitel macher sold give them a poor quality product and then the customer is out $1500, $2000, etc, whatever they paid. Don't you think that the customer's mood is also ruined for a week or 2?
