Like I said in my last post I really have enjoyed my summer, but part of being home more means taking more of the domestic duties. I have no problem cleaning the bathrooms every week (sorry guys don't let your wives see that part) or even dusting and vacuuming. Its part of being in a income household and I am cool with that. Today I realized several things that showed me that Mr. Mom must die.
First the grocery store. When you recognize all the stock clerks, know who the store manager is and know which checkers is the fastest you need to get a job.
Next when you are the only "room mom" who can make it on the teachers birthday, you have new incentive to get a job.
When you are the only parent in the lunch room with your kid, you know you need to get a job.
On the other hand doing these things shows my kids that I can do anything their mother can, though maybe not as well.
After I finished at the store and school I went home and reclaimed my manliness by fixing the toilet, replacing a sprinkler head and putting up two new fence boards. Nothing like a little physical labor to purge the homemaker in me at least till it is time for dinner.
