free time
Monday night I went to my mens group meeting (we meet twice a month)
I talked about my sadness of not having free time. During that I realized that also I feel shame for wanting free time. I have the cute baby that looks a lot like me, wants to play, wants to be held... and I want to spend 1 hour a day on the pc. Hell 1 hour a week would be great. The feedback I received was it's okay to want free time, it's normal to be even resentful of a baby that changes your life. The important thing it to express my emotions, not hide them. And bargain for free time so that my wife and I both get free time to spend by ourselves and together.
More later, V
My wife never seemed to want to take any time for herself. So I had difficulty trying to take any. I am at this exact moment taking an hour tonight to do anything I want. I am choosing to get started on the web work that I talked about and add alittle to this post I released half baked this morning.
