Do you get a chance to....

Yes, that is what I thought when I opened up my laptop, making some money. It's sad because I would love one day of just laying in bed and watching tv. One day my husband took the kids to his mom which lives an hour away. Well I spent the first half cleaning, then took a shower to watch tv. I thought he would come back late in the evening but he was home by 3pm. I see my husband just resting when he gets home after work. I don't have him do stuff for me or the kids since he worked but it's hard on me because all day long I am running around.

Onlydia my youngest is 4 and the oldest 10. I don't mind the oldest 3 getting their drinks but the smaller ones cannot lift the pitcher of juice I have. Between all five of them that refrigerator is opened up so many times during a day for "something". My oldest can cook for himself but I tell my 9 year old that he is like a 2 year old. I think he is one of those kids that you constantly have to beat sense into them... I tell my husband he takes after him.

Yeah I know the line "How do you do that..." is a trick to get me up but I figured I might as well get up to do it because I had other things to do. I don't mind serving them because I love them. I gave trying to watch tv unless everyone is out of the house and I'm alone.

I will never forget the time I let my son make hambergers on the grill he was 10 and we has hockey pucks. But I ate them and smiled and said they are good. Not the best but good. next time you will do better. As he started to cry almost. My kitchen was a mess 99% of the time when he was learning to cook. He can cook now and good. And you know my kitchen is still a mess when he cooks and after. Unless his girlfriend is here then she cleans it up. As she is 18 and can't cook. They make a great couple as he can cook and not as smart as her and she can't cook but can clean and is smart. She got a free ride to the UofM. And that is a great place I have heard. They just got a new football field. LOL YOur friend onlydia

I have learned to know all these Disney characters or Nick toon shows my kids watch as well. I have been homeschooling my kids for the last two years but this coming up year they are going back to school. My youngest son is starting kindergarten so I think it's better if they get back to school now. I have done so much schoolwork with them that I feel I am back in school myself.

My husband has learned over the years that I like to do things when possible. I accept that it's the role I have since I have stayed home. I think when he sees that I can't do it then something must be extremely wrong with me, like lately that I have had anemia. I love to help out, especially at my mother in law's I help her wash dishes, prepare food, etc. She has custody of her daughter's youngest children and most of the time her daughter just sits and watches tv. She lets her mom do all the work for her kids.
