Housewife??? No way...

So this morning I got a call from a telemarketer who really pissed me off. Which is quiet rare. Being a telemarketer myself I am normally sympathetic to anyone who calls me.

But this one lady that called this morning pushed the limit. First off when you ask for age range she started at 30 to 35, I mean do I sound like am in my thirties? Anyways I cleared my throat and said no that and to 36 to 40, and 41 to 50 and 50 and above. Then she had the nerve to go "Um 20 to 24?" I do this job so I know thats the one you were suppose to start at.

Anyways a couple of questions later it came to my occupation. And just because its 10:00am and am still in bed. And she called and woke me up does that mean am a house wife? Yeah she asked "And would your profession be housewife?". I was like what? Anyways after that I asked a lot of questions that involved maths and finally said naaa its not for me and hang up.

Which really didn't make me feel better. Yes the truth is I have been home like two weeks now. And well half of those two weeks my husband has been home too. I would like to say with me. But its not like that at all.

You see first we were still fasting for Eid. Which means all he wanted to to do was sleep. Which meant I couldn't have on the lights. Which meant I couldn't be on the computer cause I cant see the keyboard. Which meant I couldn't couldn't chat, blog, email, etc. I couldnt also read a book, play a game. My only option was to watch tv at low volume which made me sleepy too. And thus I spent half of the time sleeping because I was too hungry to venture outside of the room and do some work anyways.

Then after that week he went back to work. And I was left alone at last or so I thought. Monday I didn't even call him at work. I was just so happy that hes not here. I got the whole bed to myself with no snoring... Yeaaaah meeeee....

Anyways hes coming home early this couple of days. But atleast am getting some work done. When am awake that is.

My in-laws will be leaving on the 17th of this month. Which is kinda sad cause I will have to cook after that. And really its more sad for everyone who will have to eat it than for me. Cause I like my cooking.

I have also done some rearranging in the kitchen it is now more spacious. And I am now the proud owner of a new pantry which is filled to the brim with tin stuff and box stuff that are easy to cook.

I feel so tired from being home, I just can't imagine my life with kids to wake up and cook for, hell I can barely imagine waking up and cook for myself.

Anyways I have been doing a lot of praying. I pray that I can stop being so selfish and think only of myself. Like today my husband came from work and hes like "Luv take out some food for me" and I honestly felt like giving a kick in the bum. I mean what am I his slave or something? But then there was that little angel on my right shoulder that said "He went all day to work for you..." And some other stuff I cant remember. So I quietly went and took out his food.

Marriage is a lot of hard work, especially when you married for love. Cause when your hungry its hard to remember about love...
