I remember a while back many of the gals here on the boards were talking about being neat-freaks. Now I see why - 99% of you here are SAHM's!

I am not a neat freak by any means! LOL I think being at home and trying to clean and then seeing it messed up in a minute makes me feel like "why bother?" LOL I try, but it is frustrating! I do remember when I worked that we spent way too much time on the weekends trying to catch up with cleaning, grocery shopping, and laundry. Sometimes you just have to deal the best you can.

Many, many people have accepted the bill of goods that says you can have it all, work full time, have the big house and 2 or 3 cars, shop at the best stores, take cruises and other expensive trips and so on, without any price to your family life. I am here to tell you that there are only 24 hours in a day and if you work 8-10 of them and sleep 5-8 of them it leaves very little time for you to spend with your kids.


Very well put. Luckily I still have a little bit of time before I have to make this decision. I have read through this entire thread a few times now. Thanks to everyone who gave an opinion.
