STAY-AT-HOME WIFE


I'm not going to deny that I once dreamed of becoming a stay-at-home wife. Always at home, always available. My impression of Cy was he wouldn't let me quit work. That changed when he started managing his own business. I never thought he would actually allow me to stay home, 24/7. He's even gotten us a house and a car of our own. He has been a great provider and he always makes sure to take me somewhere fun once in a while. He is such a good man who NEVER complains and who always supports my dreams. 

I've been a stay-at-home wife for a year now. 

Anyhow, after cleaning the whole house today, I watched a lot of "Day in the Life" videos of stay-at-home wives on YouTube. I really enjoyed watching them all and even subscribed to one of them. I felt really motivated after watching those videos. It's really comforting to know that we all have similar struggles: occasional boredom, endless chores, periodic laziness, finding hobbies etc. It's fun to see how we all start our day by preparing breakfast for our husbands, then spending the rest of the day cleaning, doing a hobby, reading a book, watching TV, working on a part-time job (some get their extra income from YouTube), eating lunch alone, running some errands and then preparing dinner. Almost the same routine every day. That actually got me in the mood to blog tonight. As it happens, blogging has become my hobby... and my friend. lol 

I somehow feel like this has been my true calling. I'm an absolute homemaker! I cook, bake, clean, organize, run errands,  make plans, etc. And I do all these with outright passion. I really do love to  be in charge of the household. Sometimes I get lazy coz I'm not perfect but most of the time I enjoy doing these things.

I'm still in the process of creating a strict routine. I need to wake up earlier than usual, maybe incorporate some simple Yoga exercises in the morning for more energy and better posture, consistently work for 4 hours on weekdays as an online English tutor,  etc. There are so many things I can do and achieve if only I could discipline myself more. 

This has been an exciting journey for me and I'm thrilled for the years to come. I am embracing this life!
