the life of a housewife

ROCKS!!!

hahaha, i'm sure at some point i'm going to be bored or frustrated with it, but at this point, it's awesome. i make my own schedule, i can get the tasks done that need doing, i can make a grocery list BEFORE going grocery shopping and then come home and make a real dinner for the two of us. i go to bed when i'm tired and wake up when i'm done sleeping, and i can go for a walk in the middle of the day if i want to instead of being stuck inside waiting for work to be over.

a lot of the projects that i've been wanting to do but haven't had time for, like cleaning the washer/dryer closet and other such randomness that has been driving me crazy, are so much easier to do now that i have TIME. it's strange, the task itself (at least in the case of the closet) took about 30 mins, but even though i had those 30 mins before, it seemed like such an undertaking that i never felt like i had enough time to even get started.

so now i'm trying to balance between going crazy and trying to do all the tasks i've set for myself at once and relaxing and resting before the arrival of baby k. so far i think the balance is going well, but we'll see how it continues as i approach the tasks i'm not so excited about doing (like cleaning out my OWN closet!!).

I hardly ever got so bored or frustrated with staying at home that I wanted to rush right out and go to a full time job - ha ha...for the most part, I really enjoyed being a stay at home mom!
