Just a grumble.
I'm a SAHM to a nearly 2 year old DD. I wanted to stay at home with her and feel lucky to be able to choice to make this decision. However, I do find myself waking in the morning with a sense of gloom.
I keep us busy, we do daily activities. I'm actually quite a good house wife (cooking, cleaning, sewing, knitting....filling the house with all finds of feminine touches!) and I quite like it but I'm also quite smart and like adult company.
It's my intention that my DD will start part-time nursery some time this year and that I would do some voluntary work. The slow and steady steps back to work but I'm (tentatively) pregnant. I'm only six weeks and I miscarried earlier this year so we're holding our breath. In fact this is the first time its been mentioned outside DH and myself (please don't be a jinx on much wanted baby).
Maybe my life will be a wild whirlwind once I have two babes. I have no idea how I'm going to cope. I'd like not to feel bored or at all ungrateful for the wonderful life I live. I'd just like a bit more. How do you stay sane with 1, 2 children and being at home full time?
