I'm glad I found what works for me!Jenny @ Words on Wendhurstnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8353409416365030145.post-85289884937597812332009-11-04T08:01:31.000-05:002009-11-04T08:01:31.000-05:00Once I (we) decided I would stay home I often had ...Once I (we) decided I would stay home I often had others questioning why I was no longer working. When my kids became teens people wondered more but I pointed out that teens need a parent at home as much if not more than the younger kids. Funny thing is that most of their kids ended up at my house after school where they were fed and supervised while shooting hoops in our driveway. <br>Now my boys are grown men and for us it isn't important that I get a paying job. There is a ton to do around here and I see no reason to take on more work even if it is paid. Yes there are times we could use the money but I am not going to run myself into the ground to have it. <br>We are both laid back though. I don't care what I get done. I like it clean but if I don't get around to it, too bad. <br>You have to do what you enjoy.Lori Enoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8353409416365030145.post-56350233678409516672009-11-04T06:02:16.000-05:002009-11-04T06:02:16.000-05:00Good for you to what was right and not worry about...Good for you to what was right and not worry about about "others". I found becoming a wife a difficult transition in my life. For a long time I wasn't myself, I didnt know what to do with myself, and I felt selfish wanting things for "me" and not "us". Cleaning, cooking, and other wife like things felt like a chore to me, because I wasn't sure of myself. I have eventually figured it out though, and my husband and I eventually had a talk, and he told me he knew I wasn't domestic when he married me. So the house isn't always clean, dinner is once or twice a week and I wear sweats all the time!domesticatedblissnoreply@blogger.com
