i keep thinking that Elizabeth Cohen would though. It's funny, since i listened to her book, The House on Beartown Road, i find myself repeatedly thinking that she would understand me. i actually tried to look up a way to e-mail her. Has my current life made me a stalker too?????
See, when you are a caregiver you begin to adopt, i believe, the same sort of mindset that a parent does. Your world slowly shrinks, and you begin to consider your tasks at home as the center of your mundane existence. Home, work, amuse mommy, chop out wood, fix pipe, rinse, repeat, rinse repeat. i used to long for a nightlife each night of the week. i've winnowed it down to saturday nights, and am getting used to staying at home then. It isn't that i've entirely accepted my role as a housewife, i'm still pretty bad at it. i'm trying however. i'm trying.
