free time? er. i have more than youpi cos she only sends her boys for 3 hours. poppy at playschool for the "full day" which really just means 930am to about 4pm for us. i usually bring her to childcare then do any of the following, in no particular order:
1) gym
2) do my part time work
3) prepare for upcoming craft sessions for biz
4) prepare for craft session for poppy
5) go to the library and get ideas for 3) and 4)
6) go marketing
7) run errands
8) housework (or think about having to do it)
9) make stuff for poppy. now i'm scratching my head wondering how to make a puppet theatre for her. last couple of days it was 'bean bags'
10) if BB is home, we might just nua on the sofa and watch some tv
i wish i could say that i were organised and had some kind of schedule template to share with you but i don't. i just do whatever needs doing. like if there are deadlines to meet, then i will work towards that. if the dust on the floor is getting too visible, then i will attack that.
I'm on for another fish feeding session! But I charge for any professional picker uper service provided
$? Err we live on a very basic package. No car, no maid, no cable, no condo, not many big installments to pay off.
My biggest hurdle was coping with my dip in self worth, when I stopped getting a salary. I think most mums take a while to adjust to SAHMhood.
It was tough leaving my job too cos I really loved it. But I didn't really have a choice cos there was no one to look after poppy and we didn't want her to go into infant care. So it was a tough decision that I kind of regret career wise, but zero regrets mummy wise

Ah yes. Just call me weirdo magnet! It's like normal people are hanging around doing nothing then see me approaching and scuttle "hurry! Here she comes! Quick, take out your nailclippers and start clipping your toenails at the bus stop now!

thanks for arranging iherb. poppy loves the ABC bikkies (very vanilla i think).
