I got a few chores done and continued a morbid project I started. I'm writing parting letters to loved ones in the event of my unexpected death along with things I'd like to leave them and how I want to be buried. I think it's a good idea to make your wishes known and leaving your family with a loving message will soothe their grieving hearts. To respect death is to respect life.
I would have chores the whole day, even if I didn't go to work, chores only pile up... Today I came home from work, went to the garden, picked tomatoes and took them to my 80yo godmother, because she has no children and nobody to take care of her. I did her shopping, I do that twice a week. Then I came home and washed a puppy I found abandoned on the streets, I already found a home for the little one. I still have to go help my father with his animals, do some paper work for him, more shopping, dishes and the day will be over. I can't imagine doing all this while paying attention to a kid and be present. I'm constantly helping somebody, doing gardening, trying to specialize in an alternative career as a side. I wish I had more time to have the house as tidy as I wanted.
Well, I woke up 8:30. Got outside to clean the vehicle, finished that in an hour and 30 minutes. Gonna hit the treadmill, fold clothes, clean a bit, eat, then take a nap.
I loved growing up in the countryside and that's the lufe I want to go back to. I even pay a housekeeper to do the things I don't like and a stay-at-home mom's life looks like hell to me.
Late seeing your video, I was out doing some errands, (library, grocery shopping, scents store fr my organic essential oils & wildcrafted incense, etc.) on public transportation. I just returned to eat lunch. NOW it's time for my weight workout at home gym, and climbing the stairs, 11 floors. I get up fairly early, depending on my day. ......................................................................... pet free and car free by choice
Fun video Hannah . . . sooo lucky to have access to the property for so much goodness!! That doggo was in need of attention hence why jumpy n' such. No doubt he is used to being with his people all the time then all of a sudden they are gone and brings anxiousness also.
TOTALLY a DOG thing! 🥰 With the Right Clothes 🥰 🐾🤗💗What a Good Human You Are, Hannah!!! 👍🏼Take Care 🌱🐾🎼 The Ending was Perfect.”I smell the Dog on you” 😆
I like the way you just meandered through the place not on any time constraint ....taking your time... No hurries ..I do the same ...I take my time going home from work if I want to stop at the gas station and bs with clerk I can...or I can just say hey I'm going to such and such place to get a burger... I can sit in my car and watch these videos ...eat supper when I want ..go to bed whenever .. basically living my life and not somebody else's......why would anybody not want a lifestyle like that
We childfree people may have more balance in our lives. We can work as much as we want but we can actually rest at while we're at home. That makes for a good life.
I love my CF life since I devide at 5 y/o and specially when I struggle w my mental health im glad I don't have. Imagine your kid seeing thi mama sad all the time? Heartbreaking
I am doing house sitting right now for a month for my brother and his family. Just mainly watering the plants , checking post and keeping an eye on the cat His lodger is looking after the cat.
That is the future of the child free, trust me. I knew this woman Maureen, she said when she was young she was "Wrapped up in herself". She married but her husband died young. She lived a widow the rest of her life. She never said she regretted not having children, she never said she was lonely, but she became quite eccentric by the time she reached her 50's. One or two of the locals thought she was 'Odd' , putting that politely, a much more cruel word was used in reality. Childfree people in Wales, UK are a very rare indeed. I dated more than one single parent. My own children have this mind set of having children of their own without any pressure from me. My son said even about adopting. My daughter Samantha already has names for my unborn grandchildren. It seems so natural for many women to want children so it stands out a Mile when a woman chooses to be child free. Almost unheard of where I come from. My cousin Angela said this of her own sister Theresa who doesn't have kids: " She's too selfish to have children". They don't talk to eachother now !!. Another former female friend was mocked for being child free, this other woman said this of her " Children would cramp her style" in a mocking tone. I know I've said this before but it's a reminder why so many child free are seriously looked down on harshly. I've seen the nasty comments that child free People say about parents and children on Facebook forums, it's disgusting. Choose to be free but it's the negative comments that child free People see and hear that makes parents look down on them.
Makes me so sad ready all the negative comments about children, to those who chose to not have children, you have no idea the joy and love you are denying yourself and to those who are unable to conceive, my heart breaks for you ! There is no time, money or freedom that is better than having children ❤️❤️❤️
If it makes you so sad then why would you be stupid enough to go to a channel for people who do not want kids??? There is nothing sad about it. I feel sad for the people who feel having a child is the only thing worth living for. And we know exactly what we're missing. That's why we're not having children. And I have plenty people to love and who love me. Love isn't exclusive to parents.
Just remember, that children grow up and give you grandchildren. I have 4 grown kids and the oldest two now have two children each, plus my younger two are in their early 20's and want kids too. So I'm at 4 grandchildren with more to come in the future, and my sister has 9 grandchildren. My youngest sister thought she didn't want children, but as she got older that all changed. She's now 42, married with a 5 year old son and a 3 year old daughter. And she is loving it. I pitty the people my age with no grandchild, because my family tree strong is going strong, as theirs is withering away.
There are plenty of older folks who are perfectly happy to have not had children. Your life perspective isn't the only valid one. Your pity is not necessary here.
