[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not as much as your boss is.  Doing household work makes me feel human and grounded.[/quote]

Sitting on the floor with both my babies in my lap while I read them as DH is playing piano makes me feel human and grounded. If we didn't have twice-a-week cleaning, I wouldn't have time for that.[/quote]

PP here.  I agree.  And we have a cleaning person, as well - I don't insist on doing everything myself.  But the day I pay someone to sew a button back on my jacket is the day I turn in my humanity card.  Just thinking about that makes me want to weep.[/quote]

LOL. I just paid $20 to have 8 buttons resewn on my winter coat.  I thought of doing it myself, but realized I didn't have the correct thread (they are extra-heavy buttons, so the standard thread wasn't going to work), or a needle that would work with this extra thread.  I live in DC so I realized I'd probably have to drive out to the suburbs to get said implements, and when weighing all the time and effort, $20 looked like a steal.[/quote]
