I'm not a stay at home mom too, and some days I do feel bored. I have a lot of hobbies that I have found to keep me busy, and we have 'playdates' with my friends and their kids. We go out to the mall, parks, take walks, go to the library, and several other things during the week so it feels like we are out of the house.
We love taking walks and since I have stores close by we often walk to them. it also saves gas money, and helps me exercise as well.
I hope you find something to fill up your day in addition to being a mommy :)
Good luck!

You know, my boredom is what made me found myLot and alot of other sites that I now visit to kill time during a day. We also take our walks in the evenings too because of the weather.
I'm not sure if we will get to walk to night though, because it looks like it's about to down pour.
Glad to know I'm not the only one :) Thanks for posting!

Yes I would have to say there are days that i am down right bored.. Like yesterday i cleaned my whole house it's amazing it's still clean usually it's every day thing for me. I come here to mylot and reply to peoples posts that sometimes gets boring as well too. However I tend to look for the one of total interest.. But yes I am a stay at home mom as well and some days are just plain boring but other days they are not.. Hsve a great day!

Enjoy it while it lasts. I used to complain about the same thing when I had my first child and my husband was working long hours. Now I look back at those times wishing they could come back, I would love to have the option of doing nothing. Now I have three children, 11, 4, and 3 and a full time job from 10pm to 6am. So, I try to s get some sleep in the morning and use the rest of my day to clean, pay bills, doctors visits, and on and on....
I can't wait to see myself looking for things to do.

I get so bored too! My baby is only one so there isn't a whole lot of conversation going on or talking really. I go crazy because it's so quiet! Then when he takes a nap and I've already finished the housework I have nothing to do. That's why I fill my time here but even on here I get bored, haha. I am considering going back to work when daycare is cheaper just to get out of the house.
I used to only be at my house to sleep...like 3 hours a night and now I'm only out of the house like 3 or 4 hours a day. It drives me crazy!

I am in the same predicament you are in. I love my children, I love my family, my home, everything. I used to work outside of the home as well. Now that I stay at home I find it is much harder to keep busy. There's only so much I feel like doing here. Because of this, I've found some great sites, where I've met some very interesting people. I've also begun to sell food for pet hermit crabs. I do mystery auctions on ebay. Little things like that help me to pass the time a little easier.
