[quote=Anonymous]Op please listen to my take. I have a sister who also stays at home and has similar age kids...she too lives about a half hour away. She really under estimates how limited my time is. I get home at 5, we have religious school one evening a week, each kid (3) has a sport/dance another weeknight and then we have weekend games. So on my best weeks I have extra curriculars 4 times a week and 2-3 times per weekend. That doesn't include my middle son who also does after school tutoring twice a week. If I am hanging out with my neighbors on Saturday evening its because we all just got home after a long day running in-between soccer fields and we threw some hot dogs on the grill. By the time I grab my phone to text you to come over the entire event would be almost over. Its literally just playing with the neighbors while we grill dinner..nothing more. Also beyond my kids schedules I have to cook, pick up dry cleaning, try and date my husband occasionally, work out 3 times a week is my goal but it ends up being twice a week most weeks. Don't get my started on hair cuts...its a shit show the week my kids all end up needing hair cuts. I don't want to make this a stay at home debate but I think its hard for moms who don't work to really understand what our lives our like. My sister also has an urge to "get out of the house" (she usually that phrase all the time) and I honestly that the opposite urge...to get back home![/quote]
