It drives me nuts - the concept of being a housewife. Who seriously wants to sit at home and clean or cook all day?
Oh right...me.
I have this new obsession - it's called laying on the sofa with my dog, Kona. Now, I vacuum and do dishes and go to the grocery store and such during the day. I also listen to my online lectures and read my chapters and take my quizzes. Oh? I didn't mention I'm a full time graduate student? Occasionally I also go to work....neglected to mention I work in retail, as well? Hm. Silly.
I guess that makes more sense that all I want to do is sit on the sofa with my dog. She lays her sweet little chocolate lab head on my lap and grunts in happiness at the concept to have her mommy pet her all day long.
Unfortunately, I have to get up today. Bed, Bath and Beyond and Costco are calling me. I have to mail out my wedding invitations and my Dad's gift (to Tennessee..ugh Christmas), I have to bake Gingerbread cookies, Sand tarts and Lemon Blossoms (thanks Paula Deen!). I REALLY have to go to the grocery store or risk not being able to feed anyone.
So, modern housewife? What does that entail? I imagine pearls and a dyson - martini's and Christian Louboutin heels. What do I get? Eureka vacuum, beer and Elizabethtown College sweats. Oh well...at least I have the dog.
