[quote=Anonymous]I'm a SAHM (work 10 hours per week) with one toddler and I don't find the lifestyle of parenting boring. Having a part-time job helps give me something else to think about, but 10 hours per week is manageable with SAH full-time. Here's what we do to keep things from feeling boring: -Invite people over a lot, whether for playdates, dinner, or ladies night. I will note that when we invite people over it's rarely if ever reciprocated. -Plan day/weekend trips to fun places -Plan 1-2 fun things per weekend, especially things outside our usual routine of weekend activities -Sign up toddler for fun classes, a different one each season, swimming, music, art, etc. -Plan one longer trip per year, something fun and exciting -Decorate house for the seasons -Household projects and renovations[/quote]
