      winth, ha.....you are so cute. Spending time with hubby not counted as hobby lah. But I envy you both so loving.


      I m so totally opposite of you, I feel like I m almost single parent most of the time.
      Actually throughout our courtship and marriage, it has been like that.

      We have never missed each other for a day, except when he needs to travel. All our friends always tease us for being so gluey.

      I know, I see alot of mothers who bring their children out for everything, but the fathers are always MIA, even during weekends. I don't dare to ask them why it's like that. Is it always like that for you?

        For my case, our weekends outing are always as a family, hubby sure to be around with us, with only one exception when we went to watch a pop concert last year. :love:

          Hi winth, yes it's always been like that for me. We lead quite independent lives. We only go out during weekends. If we see each other too often, we can get on each other's nerves!! If I had to meet him even during lunch everyday of my life, I think I will scream. Ha.......so we are quite happy where we are. Btw, both of us are in sales. So, we enjoy socialising with other people.


          I m quite amazed at how you keep that intense passion!! Its good to see a couple so deeply in love even after the kids arrive. :celebrate:

              Thanks. Perhaps we (children) do model after our parents.

                  from a man's perspective. I would not classfy parenting as hobby šŸ˜‰

                  More like a responsibility (my own opinion).

                  hobbies : Blogging and recently Photography.
                  They go hand in hand to capture beautiful memories

                    If parenting is a hobby, then it's my current favorite, albeit its difficulties.


                    Besides that, I like to:

                    1. Surf the internet - KSP, FB, read and reply emails, buy and sell things online, and if I have time, KPO other people's blogs.

                    2. Read - I have many old books that I re-read. As for the new ones, DH tries not to let me into a bookstore as credit cards will be swiped and books will be carried home :lol:

                    3. Spend time with DH - cook, catch a movie on cable (when DD is napping, sometimes we pull her mattress to the tv room for her nap and we keep the tv volume low), go out for icecream (sub-contract DD to PILs), go swimming (with or without DD).
