So in all reality we have VERY boring lives after we get off work! A month ago my routing was very different from today:

Before:

Come home, give the dog 5 minutes of play/attention time, go upstairs and change out of my work clothes into knock-abouts, come back downstairs and take the dog for a 30 - 45 minute walk, come back and collapse in my chair, maybe accidentally take a catnap, in front of the boobtube. Later, either fix dinner or don't, watch more boobtube and eventually wander off to bed after the hubby got home.

Now:

Come home, play with the dog for a minute, discuss the day with the hubby who is now home before I am and does all the doggy-walk stuff, collapse in my chair in front of the TV and deflect questions like "what's for dinner?" and "did you return that video yet?", gain an extra 5 pounds 'cause I'm not out walkin' the dog as much, take the dog out for a last pee and roll off to bed around 11:00 after the hubby falls asleep on the couch and snores so loud I can't hear the boobtube anyhow!

It was much quieter but lonlier when the hubby worked the late swing shift!
