Homemaking Week in the Life | Homemakers Should Have Fun Too

Welcome to a new homemaking week in the life. Often homemakers are the most work-laden members of the household. Sometimes it seems that while everyone else is having fun, we are dealing with drudgery and our work never seems to end.



But homemakers should have fun too. We need to remember to take regular breaks from our work in order to keep our spirits up... little pockets throughout our day. That might manifest in a late breakfast in our pajamas one Saturday, or an afternoon interlude in the garden. It might show up as a quiet moment to paint our nails or a cheeky jump in the pool. All of these moments you will see in today's video, along with much, much more.

My homemaker series is created to give you encouragement in your daily tasks. You are not alone... and homemaking is remarkable.

Here is my poem featured in the video:

Sisyphus
Housework can be repetitive,
Constantly setting things to right.
It’s at once satisfying and tedious,
This is the homemaker’s plight.

Just as Sisyphus rolled the boulder,
It feels we have done this before.
The tide inevitably rolls back,
Then washes up on the shore.

But unlike Sisyphus, the jobs we do,
Are meaningful at worst.
At best they are the stuff of life,
So let us dive in headfirst.
