    This is me as well. I refuse to spend family/personal time working. By the end of the work day my home is back in order, that day's paperwork is done, the next day is planned and I'm ready to move to FST (Family Standard Time)
    Me too. I mean I do spend time on the weekends shopping (but I shop for my family anyway), and occasionally interviewing. I do my curriculum planning and daycare cleaning during naptime. I try to spend as little time as possible doing daycare related things during my family time.

Not only does the time that kids are in your care count but also the time you spend doing stuff for your business when they aren't in your care Like updating your website, advertising online, chatting it up on the forum etc. If you can get it all done during the day great, I don't so I'm jealous . That extra hour or two doing morning and evening cleaning followed by planning and recordkeeping and sanitizing on the weekends etc. That all adds up over the year and increases your time/space percent. I go from 29% time/space% to 36% or higher when I add that extra time.
      Maybe I am just not understanding (which is probably why I hire an acountant...LOL! ) but even if I do claimable activities after daycare hours or on the weekends, it isn't going to be countible or claimable if I am already claiming 100% right?

      I mean, the percentage can't really get any higher can it? I claim my mileage for shopping trips and banking errands on weekends and after hours but how would I add time outside of normal hours and still be able to count them?
