Keeping up with the Jones'

After 8 months of being married I have forfeited all rights to my previous vision of suburbia. I no longer get manicures but instead have begun to invest in face creams. I have changed my hair color and cut a couple of times. As for the cleaning, I have developed a few systems that work for me. It is still quite enjoyable. However, I wish I could get help from the kids though. Picking up after them is getting old. I will try and make it fun for them. We'll see what happens.
