[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I didn't start this strand, but this doesn't make sense to me. The woman with the nanny and kids at school -- I don't get it. What do you do when the nanny is taking care of the kids or when the kids are at school -- you're not cooking or doing housework? A little confused.[/quote] Run errands, meet with landscapers, decorators, contractors, real estate agent (we are trying to buy a vacation home) shop for clothes for the kids, myself, husband, grocery shop and prepare dinner (well, I do cook), play tennis, take yoga, get waxes, facials, etc., meet with friends, volunteer at school, run errands for husbands business, read books, practice the piano, visit museums or galleries, attend lectures, sometimes check out a flick that I know my husband wouldn't feel like seeing, get the car detailed, scrapbook, organize and pay household bills, garden in the summer, walk the dog, entertain out-of-town relatives when they visit - which is a lot, write articles for my alumni magazine, chair one fundraiser per year, usually. I also am taking classes towards a teaching certificate. My kids are 3, 6 and 9. [/quote] Here's a shocker --- most of us can do that AND work AND do it w/o a nanny while the kids are at school. Fascinating.[/quote] I'm very efficient, but I can't do all of that while working and my DH does a lot to help out. Good for her.[/quote]
