As I was making a wonderful dinner of lightly barbecued seasoned chicken, brown rice, carrots, and fresh garden green beans a couple weeks ago by MYSELF, I thought, “Is this what it will be like when I am married?”
    For our family we have to make like 5 or 6 chicken breasts, 3- 3 1/2cups of rice, 12-15 carrots and a whole lot of green beans, (mostly for me!!).

    I was in the kitchen alone and I couldn’t help but feel lonely. Everyone, but Jocelyn who was on the pc, was upstairs and it was very quiet, which is very unusual for our house.

    I thought about when I get married and don’t have kids yet, I will be making dinner alone and I won’t have a lot to make or a lot of dishes to wash. It will be very weird. I thought that it was weird tonite, I can’t imagine what it will be like when I have my own house.
    Yes, sometimes I want to lock up all the little kids so that I can think, but what will I do when I won’t have them running around?
    I wonder what my days will be filled with when I am married without kids. I won’t have school, I won’t have to clean all the time, and I won’t have to worry about stuff like that.

So I have a question:

        If you are married and you didn’t have kids right after you were married and you didn’t have a job, what did you do? Or if you are married and you don't have kids yet, don't have a job, what do you do?

My mom said that she had a job, so I'm afraid she can't give you any advise. When she was married without any children, my dad was at the office half of the day so she was a nurse, and she couldn't cook worth a dewflotchy (but she sure can now:-). Thanks for stopping by, stop by again soon.

Well lets see, that was only 6 years ago....The first 6 months, we lived in a 27' camper trailer.....that was aweful, but after that we moved into a double wide and it needed a lot of work, so while DH was at work, I painted, wallpapered, cleaned, organized. Some days I'd go shopping, some days I spent with my sister in law, somedays I spent with my Mom. Once in a while I spend the day with a friend, sewing or scrapbooking. You'll get a lot of scrapbooking done! My advice is work on it hard before you have kids, because it's hard to keep up after if you're already way behind! Or it is for me anyway! I have an Aunt that doesn't have kids and she goes to nursing homes a lot and visits old people and shut ins.

Thank you for the comment! If I get married someday, then before having children, I would want to do a lot of things. Keep the house clean and decorated, quilt, sew, knit, continue doing freelance writing, all that fun stuff!
