]]> Comment on #29 by Life of a Doctor's Wife http://sweetandtart.wordpress.com/2012/02/10/29/#comment-51 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 16:20:51 +0000 http://sweetandtart.wordpress.com/?p=450#comment-51 That is a BEAUTIFUL photo of you and your girl. And happy (much belated) birthday! I love what you wrote about wishing that the universe has a quota for misfortune – what an apt way to put it. And I hope, fervently, that your quota has been met for MANY YEARS.

It would help on a day like today, though, if she would nap for more than one hour!

Writing a post takes 10-60 minutes, depending on how much effort I put in; I post daily, so that’s like an hour/day of effort.

My daughter is still young (11 months) and takes 2 naps/day, for a total of 15 hours slept every day. Since I only sleep 8, this means I have seven hours to fill. I usually do house chores when she’s awake; the ones I don’t do then take maybe an hour/day. Personal care etc. and logistical/organizational stuff are another hour each, so every day I have 4 hours of free time. Since I can’t usually leave the house then (since she’s asleep), blogging is like the perfect activity.

I only have one child though, and don’t work (even part time or at home). Also, I have a cleaning lady who comes in for 4 hours/week to do the deep cleaning. I think it’s really different if those things aren’t true for you.

]]> Comment on I used to be a reader by Jenna http://sweetandtart.wordpress.com/2010/06/30/i-used-to-be-a-reader/#comment-8 Thu, 08 Jul 2010 19:52:51 +0000 http://sweetandtart.wordpress.com/?p=92#comment-8 I know what you mean about having so much free time you don’t prioritize. I was the same way when I wasn’t working and didn’t have a baby to take care of! I’m jealous of all those people who find a way to read more. Joining a book club has been really helpful to me because it gives me some accountability. Also finding a topic I’m passionate about (like the Real Food movement) which has led me to read more books in the past few months than I think I did all of last year!
