[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Well, then you don't know me or all of my working mom friends. I work at a job I LOVE and I'm good at. I have a well respected position and I'm climbing the ranks in an environment that currently has little movement. I am far from a haggard mess. I work out 6 days a week and have a killer body. I dress professionally every day and even while on maternity took a shower every day and dressed nice. I run 10-12 extreme races each year. I'm extremely organized at work and at home. Our meals are planned out each week, I cook mainly from scratch, and I make/decorate professional looking cakes for holidays, kids' birthdays, teacher birthdays. Just did my sister's weddding cake. Kids clothes are picked out and organized for the entire week on Sundays. We don't really outsource any household chores - I mow the lawn and keep up a veggie garden. DH does laundry, kids and I fold and everyone puts their own clothes away. Kids all have chores starting by age 3-4 (feed/walk dogs, empty room garbage cans, load dishwasher, etc). DH and I have staggered schedules so our kids are rarely in aftercare and the youngest is in a home daycare for less than 5 hours/day. Both of our commutes are less than 15 minutes. Not sure what you mean by office BS. I do my job and have great coworkers. I'm extremely connected with my kids. Between DH and I we usually make it to most daytime school events and all night time events. I even organize a program at the school and coach one of the teams each year. We have scheduled Friday Family Fun night - kids pick out movie or game. All other nights, we have several hours of play time/reading time together or they have activities. DH and I take a few weekend trips or a week vacation together each year and have date nights about once a month. We also go on vacation with the kids. Oh, and no medicating here. I rarely take an aspirin. I don't drink or do any type of drug or prescription meds. Come on, you can admit you're jealous! [/quote] You forgot to mention your unicorn. If you don't have one, nobody is going to be jealous.[/quote]
