Since N went off to Kindergarten, I have become a childless stay-at-home-mom. Most people who have not been a stay a home parent probably wonder what in the world I do all day, I'm pretty sure my hubby is the leader of this group, but he knows better than to say anything...
So, I do all the normal things in the morning. I fix N breakfast (and make her school lunch), let her veg and eat while I get ready for the day, and then I get her ready. I take her off to school, and then my day begins! I'm super active in volunteering for a non-profit organization, so most days I have a meeting or activity for that in the morning. I run all the errands a SAHM typically does (bank, grocery store, clothes shopping, holiday and/or birthday shopping, anything else that anyone NEEDS me to do during the day, etc) or I may go to an appointment, doctor, dentist, eye... After that I 'go' to school. I listen to my lectures online then do all the homework, exams, quizzes, papers, a little endless! On top of all of that, I still need to make sure the house is relatively clean, prepare dinner, do the laundry, AND entertain the cats.
Cats are a bit demanding once they realize that the child is not about. My cats yell at me and expect me to respond. They also want to sit on my face, anyone else have that problem?
I realize it's not your typical 9-5 job (does THAT job even exist anymore?!?) but it's my job, I take it seriously, I do it well, and I'm definitely not sitting around all day :-)
