Housewife...sort of.

I have decided to write about what it is like being a housewife...sort of. Right now, I don't have a job so Rodrigo is supporting us 100%. I haven't worked since January when I was in Minnesota. Of course I don't exactly like this situation, I like working and I like making money. I also love when I have money in my pocket so I can buy things. No, I am not a crazy shopper, I don't spend a lot of money shopping just for fun, but it would be nice to be able to buy something just for fun. Rodrigo doesn't mind me asking him for money to buy things, but I don't like it. I feel guilty that he is working all day everyday and I am...blogging, keeping up my farm on farmville, reading, crocheting, and watching reruns of Friends all day. I can't even be a proper housewife because well, this is not my house. So, during the week sometimes I make the bed, I putz around tidying the whopping two flat surfaces that seem to act as my mother would say a "catch-all" and it is my job to open the windows in our room in the morning and close them at night. If I am in the house alone when it gets dark, I have to turn on the yard light. I really want to rearrange our bedroom, but I can't. I have nowhere to put all the stuff in our room while I move the big stuff and I know a certain MIL would have a freaking cow if I put it in the living room, even if it was just for an hour. I have to wait until weekends to do any laundry and for the past few weeks, I have only been able to wash two loads for the weekend because MIL no longer lets us have the whole day on Saturday and Sunday to wash. Our laundry basket hasn't been completely empty for weeks.
Ro and I went to the mall on Wednesday and it was so nice to spend the day together.  We went to all the big stores, Ripley, Paris, and Falabella. Ro has decided that we are getting a huge refrigerator when we move out. I think he's crazy, we don't need a gigantic fridge, its just the two of us for now. But I do know that if he gets his way on getting a gigantic fridge AND a king size bed, (when will men learn that bigger is not always better?) he better at least let me get cake pans, muffin tins, pie tins, and anything else I want to bake with. I doubt I will ever be able to spend as much on kitchen stuff as the king size bed and gigantic fridge, but at least I know I will have everything I need to make anything I am in the mood for. While I am in the US, I was planning on getting a set of silicone bakeware and a crock pot. I have been trying to find a crock pot here in Chile, but I give up. Oh in case you would like to buy a book of recipes for a Crock Pot, they do sell those here in Chile, but you can't find a crock pot anywhere. Still can't figure out why they sell a recipe book for something they don't sell, but that's Chile for you I guess. Anyways I am stoked about the crock pot because when I come back to Chile, I will be finding a job and working all day!! I can't wait. I can't wait to fill my crock pot with meat and potatoes and veggies and set it on low and come home from work with supper ready for hubby and I to eat!! I can't wait to have my own kitchen where I can keep my food instead of in the grocery bags on our bedroom floor! Only a few more months!!!
