I think my life has been regular after getting married and especially having our child. Every morning I go to work. And I will go home after work. I seldom go out at night. I try to stay with my family at night. And in the weekends we will go out to have the family time together. How is your life like?

I have had many changes in life so far as the place of stay is concerned.When i got married I was in Hyderabad, a city in Andhra in India, then I went back to south India where I was surrounded by people of my own mother tongue.I stayed here for some 26 years [within which I had many shifts the longest was the last where I stayed for 17 years] and then for the past three [roughly] years I have relocated and am staying with my son in Mumbai. All my changes were alright AND I thank God that I have adapted to the change.All thatI need is my small family and everything else is irrelevant. Any place is the same as far as I am concerned. ONLy thing, here I have no large groups of students and though I miss them, now I have found an alternative occupation for myself apart from household chores and that is writing.

Hi youless! I do have an ordinary yet special kind of life! I say ordinary because I spend most of my time at home being a regular housewife, doing part time business on the side. However, I do regard it special because of the special moments I have with all the people I love most of the time. Take care always my friend! Celebrate life! lovelots..faith

Similar to yours, minus the child. It seems that is the norm after everyone gets married. All my friends who got married also have that routine. I guess it is that phase in life we all go thru.

I guess mine's the same minus the child part? HahaAfter getting married, I only go out once in a blue moon with my friends. As my wife & I work from home, we're normally spending most our time together which is the part I like most

I think it's good to have a secure & safe plan that goes through the week. It creates stability. My life is complete the opposite. I have a job, but i change work very often. I have lived in 8 different apartment's in the past 3 years. I have used enormous forces, will & stability to write music again. It has taken me to new and more exciting places and i love it. But i could not have done this without my family and friends. Though there's been a lot of changes, things go forward. I'm taking a lot of risks, have lost a lot of relationship because i have chosen my direction. I am a musician, and just cant live without music. The world moves by the sound of music (well, at least my world do:-) So i think it all goes down to the question, what is the right thing to do for you!

Actually I like a routine life, don't really like too many changes in my life, because maybe I'm not a person who can adapt easily to things. I like my predictable life, and I don't like to deal with too many changes in my life... Changes might be good, but sometimes, dealing with changes can be a little challenging. Anyway, I don't think there's anything wrong or bad about having a routine life. I'm just not the kind that hops about and jump about in my life.

You are right. The people who have a routine life will be likely to have longer lives

Its all same to married ones having child. Get up early in the morning. Prepare breakfast fpr family, go to work, return back prepare dinner. Clean everything, wash clothes if required and sit with family watching tv in the evening and on holidays go out with family. its just like a routine for me. I sometimes want to have a chage in my life but it seems to be impossible unless i get old.

And perhaps I have to keep worried for my child for quite a long time.

i think it depends... i mean if you enjoy the lifestyle you have now, then you dont need to change. if you are not happy then do some changes. spend most of the time with family , that is a kind of happiness. family is the most important thing. yea, sometimes we will feel bored, maybe that is life.

Yes!Life has changed more after marriage and more after we had kids.There are no more meeting friends and having some chats on sweet nothings or outings whenever we like as in a bachelor's life.We have to be motivated to earn more and so we need more concentration on business and we have to raise our family to a good position and have to maintain our relationship.So,we have to spend more time with our kids and relatives.we have to accept this changes and I really enjoy being a responsible family man.Cheers!

I don't know sometimes I do and sometimes I don't there are just so many odd twists and turns that life can throw you that you aren't really expecting. I don't really know what to expect out of life and it seems that I will always be struggling to find a meaning.

Its depend on what type of changes happened in my life. Some change i like very much after marriage and child. When some changes happened in office time or type of work i dont like . I m aware about the fact "change is a rule of world" In our holly book god said that. So i alway try to compromise with unwanted changes. Thats the life.....Happy MyLotting!

My life is so much better than it was 10 years ago. After I met my husband and we moved overseas in 2000, it's been great. Sure we have our ups and downs and times where it gets boring, but I never regret moving overseas and when we married and our son came along, life has just gotten better. We moved again in 2006 to another country and it's been great - I like change. I'm hoping when my husbands contract finishes up in two and a bit years, we are onto new adventures in another country :) The only thing about moving is that I miss my family in New Zealand at Christmas time and birthdays. Other than that, I like my life now :)

Hello There. How are you? Right now, I am okay with the changes happening in my life so far though the only thing that I am really concerned about is my position at my work. I only have six months of contract here at my work and I need to find another work that I really like. This is the first time that I have ever felt that I am not for this job that is why I am not really expecting them to hire me for another months or so.. that is the only thing that i am really concerned about since it is not easy to find a job nowadays. However, I am still happy that I still have a job this year. Other changes are coming in a little while, and I am expecting that our life will be better as this year pass by. To you question on how is my life like... well, I go to work every morning... every month I will change schedules since I am working in a helpdesk 24/7 environment... I am single but committed... no datings or whatsoever rightn ow since my man is in abroad working lolz... Basically, my life is my family, friends and boyfriend and work as well. lolz... Thank you for the discussion. Happy Mylotting. Have a great day! Cheers!

Hello.....in my opinion..what you are doing is very good. As a wife I would say it is VERY good to stay with your family at night. For me, I also seldom go out at night. I like to stay at home especially at night and in the hot afternoons. But I have no choice I have to go out and face the hot sun on certain days as I have music classes. For me during weekends my husband and I will definitely stay at home and we will not go out at all if we have the choice other than Sunday morning because of the heavy traffic. Both of us work from home and our time is flexible so we can always go out some other time like during weekdays especially on Mondays or Tuesdays when everyone else had the share of outing over the weekend. Before both of us started working from home, we used to work in an organization which have meetings after meetings at nights and because we are both in the team we had to be there no choice....I am so thankful those late nights are over and out.

I miss the time when we hadn't our child. It seemed it would be much more free. Now due to the little guy, we tend to stay at home at usual and go to the park or somewhere else in the weekends.

hello youless it sounds like you and me both have about the same kind of a life style. i also have been working a part-time job and then coming back home in the afternoons and spending time with my boys and my hubby, helping with homework and cooking dinner. and on the weekends, we usually stay at home unless we do happen to have plans to go out somewhere. i usually do my grocery shopping and run my errands in my spare time. and i enjoy having the weekends off from work as well. and about the only place that we all go to at night time through the week is if the school might have something going on like a play that one of the boys might be in or something like that. both of the boys enjoy also going to the fall festival that they have at the school each year. but with working, grocery shopping, running errands, packing lunches, helping with homework, doing the laundry cooking dinner and cleaning up the dishes, cleaning the house, mopping and sweeping the floors, i stay pretty busy, but i have my daily routines down as what that i have to get accomplished during the day. take care and have a beautiful evening.

Most part of the time in my life nowadays is regular. I regularly be at college from 7 am to 2 pm. Then remaining time I hang in internet or do some homework. And sometime I go outside. And only sometimes there are special times to enjoy more than regular like parties, jamming etc..
