Even though i love this show (Desperate Housewives), being a Housewife is not always the glamorous lifestyle the character Gabby (Eva Longoria-Parker) may portray. That's just her life. It can be glamorous at times, but most of the time it's going to be hard work! In actuality, it is a mixture of all the wives on the show. Cooking, cleaning & taking care of the kids around the clock. It's one of the toughest jobs out there (I can't think of one that is more stressful, demanding, yet rewarding). No one said shopping is ruled out, but when your whole day consists of shopping, spa appt's, and other beauty appt's, you are leaving the real work to somebody else. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner on a daily basis (yes weekends too. No days off!). Laundry per person, and when you have a family of 5 (like myself) the load is heavier. Nap time is crucial. It's my favorite time of the day. I get a little time for myself to relax, catch up on T.V. shows, or update my blog (smile). All in all, i love my job because i get to see my kids grow in a structured enviornment, and i don't have to worry about them catching the things kids often spread in daycares. The other scares that can happen are irrelevant as well. They eat healthy meals 3 times a day with snacks in between. They take naps with story time, free play, e.t.c.. One day they will get older, look back on life, and say thank you Ma. Thank you for putting your life on a short hold to dedicate 100% of your time into raising us with special love & care. Don't sleep on a real Housewife!
