[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Love my children, love my husband, but actually, lately I'm a bit envious of my single friends who are living their dreams, traveling to cool places, training for marathons, taking weekend trips at a moment's notice, etc.  I say that as I am still recovering from an overly busy, child-centric weekend that involved Little League, dance recital, swim lessons, birthday party, etc...[/quote]

Your single friends with jobs aren't doing most of these things.  How much time do you think we get off from work every year?  As a single person, I work, try to stay professionally relevant by taking courses once in a while, maintaining my condo w/o help (how am I going to get that couch from one side of the room to another), trying to eat healthy, etc.  Single people don't spend every weekend having "girls nights".

Mine are and that is what I was doing when I was single.  If I needed a sofa moved, I moved it myself and even now, if I need a sofa moved and my DH is not around, I'll still do it myself.

And YES, I took weekend trips all the time. As a "professional" person without the expense of kids I had a lot of disposable income, which made all of these things possible.  My friends that are still single have seen their incomes rise even more (not having to mommy track) and are living it up. There is a huge single scene here in DC.[/quote]
