I think my dream of being a stay-at-home-mom is somehow couched in a pioneer version of the lifestyle. Where friends work together on canning, gardening, drinking tea and chatting...so: FRIENDS! All at home and nearby each other.
But today as we took a random morning walk around the neighborhood, and I watched all the women and men heading off for the morning commute...I felt almost jealous! Ridiculous, I know. But, I'm realizing the reality, that there aren't that many stay at home moms around me!! So, though I'm staying home and hoping to home school and all that, sometimes it's so strange, because I feel left behind by all the folks driving off to have a career, or sit on their computer and drink tea and read blogs, or whatever people do at their 'real' jobs:)
Anyway, it's just a strange thing to be a stay at home mom these days. I still don't really feel like a stay at home mom, since all my lofty ideals of what 'stay at home moms' do all day have pretty much been deflated: between the realities of cross country relocation and first trimester...i haven't gotten around to many of the home stuff I envisioned...
I guess no matter is going on, the blog version and pinterst grandeur of home school-stay at home mom world, is a lot more ordinary and everyday that I had hoped;0
well, i can't say i miss blogging, but i will say I want to write more and since Dinosaur Train is entertaining Miles, I thought I'd scribble something out.
