Confessions of a SAHM

[Anonymous]

I act like being a sahm is SO hard. Dh even feels bad some days when he comes home because I look "frazzled." Little does he know, I look that way because I just woke up from a nap! Yes I do the cleaning, laundry, cooking and all the other crap sahm's do, but it seriously isn't that much work. I have maybe one busy day a week and the rest I just hang out, play with ds and watch tv. This is the life!!! 

*Ds will be starting k next year...seems like a good time to start talking about having more kids again! :)

Lol, the last time I nodded off, I woke up to my kids combing my hair with the vacuum brush. At 4 and 2, those two can't be trusted.

having a 5 y/o makes naps easy! put on a movie and mama gets two good hours of quiet napping time :) 

i know once we have another naps will be nonexistent....along with any other type of sleep so im taking advantage of it now :)

Quoting StrangeDays:

I could not do that. I would do crazy from boredom. We stay really busy everyday.

Haha when I had one it was easy when #2,#3 came it wasn't as easy. Now that they are in school its easy again. I'm busy a lot of the time but its easy, especially since I have a schedual and stick to it.

For me, it's up and down.  Yesterday and today were pretty tiring days.  Just busy and my almost 3 year old  was uncharacteristically whiny and a general pain in the butt.  But most days feel fairly easy.  It just depends.
