Womens LIberation, Good Idea /Bad Idea?

Yes, I think it was a good idea.

I am now living in the new condo during the week. I am navigating a neighborhood that was my home for many years, yet it feels a bit unfamiliar. Old muscles of independence are getting some exercise. I like taking care of myself!!

But really, how is it?

Um, a little lonely!!
Yeah, I miss the companionship of the hubster in the evening.

BUT- I can work a 12 hour day (like I needed to do on Monday) and have a little time at night for some small act of self-pampering. My new commute is anywhere from 5-8 minutes. :O

And, you know what? I get satisfaction from my job. I really do. Sure, if I could afford it, I would stop working. I would be a home-maker and I'd love it.
But we are educating a few kids and we need the income & benefits from my job.
And I am not sorry. It is hard to measure job satisfaction, but I can tell you it does nourish me.

Next week, I will have my sewing machines with me and you know what that means!
Fortunately, DH is coming up to B-more for a date tonight. Best of both worlds.

Feeling pretty blessed at the moment.
Happy Sewing to those who HAVE a sewing machine.
:)

Womens Liberation- YES, a good idea.
