So… what did you DO all day?

I must admit, my husband is merciful and tactful, and I don’t remember that exact question ever coming out of his mouth.  But, sometimes, I can tell by his quick glance with widened eyes around the place when he comes home that he’s sometimes thinking it.

I laughed out loud at this post from Anonymom, which starts

This is for all the stay-at-home-mothers who are exhausted at the end of the day only to be greeted by the words, “What did you do all day long?”

She then goes on to detail the day in Husband Perceived Time (the time hubbies think a task should take) vs. Actual Time.

Anonymom has a baby and a preschooler, so my life as a homeschooling mom of four isn’t identical to hers, but it does bear some striking similarities.

When they were little, it was impossible to conquer the clutter. Now that they are older, I have learned to embrace the utter filth! :)

That was great, Karen!! Thanks for sharing that. :)

Hi, thanks for linking to me! Glad I provided lots of laughter in another mom’s 18 minutes of blogging!
