It is Friday, which means both of my babies will be off to school in a few minutes, and I will have 4 hours of solitude. And I find that my new-found freedom leaves me wondering….because wondering, after all, is better than doing dishes. 🙂
What do stay-at-home-moms with school-age children do?
Do you use this time to run errands that might be time-consuming with the little people on board?
Do you deep clean? Organize? Scrub baseboards?
Clean kids rooms while they are away?
Take some time for yourself? Read a book? Work on a hobby? Watch something other than Max and Ruby?
Go out with friends? Go to the mall? Find a nice coffee shop and be an adult?
I only have this complete freedom 3 times a week. And it is only 4 hours, which feels like a real-time 45 minutes….But I am very curious about how women spend their days….
Help a sister out.

I agree with Deb. Whatever floats your boat that very day.

Thanks ladies…. I think I may come up with some sort of cleaning schedule… then I know it all gets done, and I can play when the work is done 🙂 Or…since the work is never done… i will just play when the list for that day is done.
