[quote=Anonymous]I do all the house stuff, obviously-- laundry, cleaning, shopping etc. I prep meals so I don't have to when the kids are home. I help my husband with his work-- proofreading his articles before publication, mostly. I manage the bills and insurance and car needs (repairs, maintenance). Manage the house maintenance, which involves lots of calls to contractors (we had damage from the crazy summer acts of god) and staying home for them, and quick trips to the hardware store when they're working. We don't have a yard, per se, but I keep the little patch of grass out front tidy, and weed the flower bed. Did all the Christmas decorating, from picking up and trimming the tree, to hanging the outdoor lights.

I'm also looking for a job, so there's an hour a day. And I'm writing a book, so that's a few hours once or twice a week, as new info comes in or as the muse visits.

I volunteer at the food bank, usually one six-hour shift a week.

And I STILL have time on my hands. I have lunch with friends and play computer games, mostly. I have occasionally gone back to bed after dropping the kids off at school. [/quote]
