[QUOTE="Lil, post: 647401, member: 17309"] Honey, I know you don't want ME to be the one to respond, but I do agree with you...we need to do something. Just a run-down of what our nights tend to be like: Jabber gets home about 4:30, takes care of our cat and dogs, popper scoops the yard, etc., lets dogs out and feeds them and sometimes hasn't even gotten changed by the time I get home at about 5:15-5:30. We kick back for a few...maybe until 6 - 6:30 and grab something to eat. About 7 we head to the second job and we're there until 8 or so. Back home. We're [I]tired[/I]! At this point other than an hour of TV and some dinner, we've been working all day. We generally crash and watch TV, get on the internet, and next thing we know it's 10:30. By the time the dishes are done, teeth brushed, etc., it's well after 11. Jabber's alarm goes off before 6 a.m. I drag my butt up at 7. And we do it all over again. :( I weigh more than he does. Which really sucks. That's just a typical day. Then he takes a guitar lesson once a week (though he cancels more than he should) and I have church board commitments one to two times a month. We only put in about 5 hours a week at the church (2nd job) but we have been doing 2 hours or so on Saturday and we want to quit, which makes it an hour ever day during the week, or we don't get done and have to go in on Saturday! Really, after 8 pm is about the only weeknight time we have! I don't know what to do about it. I DO know that every horizontal surface in our house is dusty, the bathrooms are filthy, I can't remember the last time I vacuumed and I just can't seem to get any ambition to change the stuff I hate. :( [/QUOTE]
