Attached Mamas Working Outside the HomeDo you face the unique challenges of balancing your career with your children? Come on in and talk with other moms who find ways to make their situation work for the whole family.
I miss the "to do list" threads lol. No really, I do
I miss listing out my household chores, errands, stuff with my kids. My to do list these days is mostly
drink coffee, workout, shower, dress, drive to work, work all day, come home, play with the kids and try to pick up the floor so there are paths, eat dinner, clean up dinner, play on the wii with the kids, watch tv or read, fall asleep before everyone else.
I live for the weekends when I can actually do my chores, errands, spend time with my family. I miss it sometimes - the sahm thing. Specially in the summer when everyone is home but me.

Me three! I've been staying with my parents on a separation and they do most of the cleaning and a lot of the cooking. I was working 10 hour days and I had no time for it, but I still missed it all. Its very therapeutic in ways. Now that I'm making more money and workin gless, I am looking forward to moving back in with SO and being able to relax in that way once again. Sounds crazy, doesn't it?

You know, sometimes I wish we did do at WOHM to do list. It might look different than our SAH days, but I really would benefit from:
get kids ready for school
get to work before 9:00 a.m.
GET DISABILILTY REPORT DONE, fax to disability
spend at least 30 minutes on billing
STAY OFF AMITY
home
get dinner on the table
clean kitchen
fold and put away at least one load of laundry
3 mile run
You know? I could still use a to do list even if it isn't all about SAH things.
