Hi! Welcome! I didn't hit on this site til I had #2 and had been home about 2 years, but it has helped me tremendously. I used to wonder why I bothered staying home but a few things helped me: #1--read The New Homemaker's manifesto--even my DH was impressed, #2--find a good schedule...I posted one a few months back in Excel format...I'll go see if I can find the link, #3--read and enjoy old (and new) homemaking/home economics books (don't beat yourself up for what you don't do, just gleen info). A good new one is Home Comforts, the Art & Science of Homemaking. #4--Come see us often...this is one awesome bunch of women here!!!!
