[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What you get for bragging about being a woman of leisure is that people now know you are a woman of leisure.[/quote]
Oh lord. I likely would have said the same thing after my last little one went to school. There is nothing wrong with it. [/quote]

+1. The people saying it was an obnoxious post have obviously never spent time as a stay at home parent. It is exhausting and 24/7. Nothing wrong with being excited to get a little time to yourself back. [/quote]

I’m a SAHM of two. It IS exhausting and neither kid is in school yet. Occasionally I get my mom to take them both and I aimlessly shop at Target or HomeGoods OR if I can get my husband to do the drop off on his way to work then I stay home and sleep. Both options are glorious. I’m on FB all the time but NEVER would I make an obnoxious post bragging about my free time. At most I’d mention it directly to other SAHM friends at a later time who get how nice a middle of the day break is but it’s childish and silly to make a FB status about it. Clearly OP has learned this and left social media but I think she asked for it in this case and shouldn’t be petty to the neighbor. If neighbor dad lashed out on a non-bragging post (ex. if she posted something sentimental about sending her last little one off to school instead of bragging about lounging around and doing nothing and he still told her to go get a job) then I’d feel differently.

It’s exhausting but you are on FB “all the time?” Choose one.[/quote]
