Now I'm hungry!

Seriously, though (and I haven't read all the posts), I'd be bored to tears as a stay at home mom if I devoted myself to housework and related stuff. I stayed home some with each child before they started school, but even then worked part-time a lot, worked on a graduate degree, etc. I guess if I had had extra time, I would have worked out a lot, b/c I enjoy it. But I was more in need of intellectual stimulation than physical, at that time, anyway, so my stay-at-home time was never full time and I never had what felt like "free time."
