Damn...I don't want to think too hard about it....
OK - the girlie stuff first.
Having time to have coffee on any of the great "strips" I used to frequent. Meet the friends and morning coffee streams into boozy lunch...
Shopping FOR ME! I spend whatever shopping time I have to have now buying the never ending stuff for 3 kids, doing the "supermarket grand prix" at least 3 times per week in between work and other stuff. Get outta my way you old bags cos I don't have time to stroll through the supermarket! I need a turbo-trolley and I work up a sweat as I fly up and down the aisles. 6 in the house - I could spend my life at the damned supermarket and associated food stores
.
Having time for manicures and pedicures and all nice girlie things...
Partying all night long, drinking plenty of good Scotch and still being at work at 7.00am in the morning looking and feeling as fresh as a daisy
.
The good stuff:
Driving my car - HARD! No bloody time anymore...
Going clay shooting, pig shooting etc with my Dad
Early morning runs on the beach with a friend and my Border Collie (RIP)
Playing my guitar
Singing (still sometimes manage that one under the shower but no time for choir anymore)
Dad - he was a pastime all by himself
That'll do....
It's not like I don't have fun anymore...really...I'm just like any other Mum though - swamped under the kids and hubby and all their associated wants and needs
...
