[quote=Anonymous]+1 to the boredom & loneliness. And +1 to not having to leave the house on a sick or snow day. I'm glad I did it in spite of the boredom. I got a P/T WAH job to fill some hours, and make a few bucks. I also did a lot of non-kid work around the house - repairs, painting, projects, etc. Cooked a lot from scratch, and shopped smart on food, diapers, etc. to save our budget. No regrets here. FT job now, and kids are in MS & HS. Made some good Mom friends in my neighborhood, many of whom have gone on to FT jobs too. At the time, they were lifesavers because we'd send kids to each other's houses for long playdates so we could run errands, get haircuts, feel like an adult, etc. Reach out to people - chances are they want to connect.[/quote]
