General Relationship DiscussionAlthough anyone can post anywhere on Talk About Marriage, this section is for people interested in general relationship and marriage advice.
Cold feet maybe? I feel a lil bored now... I have no adult in my life from 6 am to 3 pm or so.. its Saturday, my H is home... I am still stuck alone with my kids taking care of them because he's working in the shed.
Now what? I could assert that I want to do something, he will oblige... But he'll still want to be working in the shed. I could join him, but then sawdust gets blown in my eyes, or I gotta speak between sandings..
I want to scream entertain me! I need to talk to an adult, I want company!!!
Sincerely,
New SAHM... First week in... Twin toddlers
I mean I don't have twins... Der, but... Is it normal for a baby to make these awful Pterodactyl noises? LoL... Oh if we lived closer we could entertain each other... Hahaaa!!! Posted via Mobile Device
I've been around... Mostly griping about my husband and life anymore... But hey, at least I have an interesting baby to play with! LoL!! Posted via Mobile Device

lol
Yeah, that would be fun.. I sure could use some adult conversation. All I do is play referee to these creatures.. its why they kept them apart a daycare... It's insane! They can not be together for more than 10 mins without getting into it. Sheesh.
It's an adjustment to go from working to sah. My kids were 3 and 1 when I did it. What you will need to do is make other mommy friends so you can have adults to talk to during the week. I'm past this now as my kids are in school but back then I was in MOPS (mothers of preschoolers), did playdates, was in a moms group and had a best friend.
I did dual role - working half the week and SAHM the other
I was never very good at the mum's coffee mornings and all that stuff. The full time SAHMs were SOOO boring, they could go on for hours about the contents of a nappy! Lots of very rigid views on the rights and wrongs of every child related subject. Maybe I was unlucky and I don't mean to knock all SAHMs but it could be a big adjustment Cherry when you've always been a working mum. I had a foot in both camps at the same time, you're going in at the deep end
You do need to mix though even if they're not going to be lifelong friends.
Lol yin... typical day for me.... get up around tenish... make kids breakfast, wake gate up to play taxi to his grandmother, feed the newborn, seperate the toddlers from fighting, clean house, go behind toddlers and clean mess, wake gate up again at 3 to go play taxi once more for his grandmother, keep kids from destroying the blinds, bird cage, kitchen, ect while tending to lil dolly. Clean up any spilled food(kids like to have food fights.) See gate off to work around 8pm. Read bedtime stories, shower, keep toddlers from killing eachother, tend to newborn, let gate in the house around 6am.. then go to bed and get up at 10 am to do it all over again... oh yeah ... and post on TAM... lmao. That's just a typical day.... sometimes there are a series of misfortunate events.... Posted via Mobile Device
My husband works 4 out of 5 Saturdays. So, I work with now 2nd graders all day, come home and we hang out when he gets home, but Saturdays are just me and the kids. .................... -__-
I need to start cleaning and maybe take them to the park soon. but yea, by the time he gets home at 5:30 on Saturdays, I just want to hang out! LOL! Tonight we're going for a drive.
Sounds awesome that girl! Plan on having gate take me to apply at walmart around 4pm today. I'm hoping I get hired... of course him and I will be working different shifts but we do need the money. Posted via Mobile Device
