Club SAHM

Sahms, recently my husband asked me "Actually, what do you do all day?" That question really annoyed me. What’s a good reply?

I remember how I dressed my daughter in nice clothes when she was in nursery…now, she wants to wear the most comfortable clothes after school…perfectly understandable. But I still cannot resist a nice tee when I go to Esprit or Bossini outlets.

Just stop what you do for 3 days then he will know what you do all day. -

3 days?? Dun think they'll know the full extend over 3 days. Prob there'll be no cooking, no mopping/sweeping, no washing of toilets, no vacuuming/dusting, no ironing etc.
I have seen what hubby does when he is on leave .... Wake up send kids to Sch. Come back read newspaper, have leisure breakfast, surf net & take a nap, do some laundry. Then fetch kids, cook instant noodles for lunch. Afternoon nap. Bring kids out for a short jog, eat out/pack dinner. Night watch tv together. End of day, 'your life so shiok. what's so difficult about being a housewife?' :nunchuk: :spank:
Imo, 1 week would be the minimum so that they can feel the mess & dirt & have to really get into the real work. 3 days still have clothes to wear, dirt hasn't built up, yet to get sick of outside food to start marketing, putting food on table, getting kids stuff washed for new Sch week etc etc etc.

Something like what BeContended mentioned. When he is on leave, he is totally FREE.
When he is on leave, he sends kids to school. Come home, surf net. Drink coffee. ASK what’s for lunch. Read newspapers, bathe, before picking kids from school. Have lunch, nap. ASK for what is for dinner…coach kids in their hw after dinner, wash bowls, bathe and sleep.
He is supposed to iron clothes. But he cuts corners. Son’s uniforms are just hung up and put in cupboard…not ironed (he claims not crumpled). When he is on leave, really good life. -
Re-affirming BeContented's pattern. :preen:
READ : Men need enough clean underwear and socks.
So......... :imanangel:
