I moved out of home recently – yay! Only for two weeks though. A friend’s parents went overseas, leaving him with the house to himself, so as we together with another friend had always wanted to live together in a group house, we gave it a trial.
It went suprisingly well. Using the vast resource that is the Internet (as well as calls home to Mum), even I cooked a few meals – Macaroni Cheese, Spaghetti Bolognaise, and a nice Baked Dinner. We did it all – shopping, washing, cleaning, cooking and ironing, and I realised that mums really do complete quite a lot of things around the home.
It was a good time to realise what life is like outside the home – there’s a lot more to do so you’re generally more busy than at home – and also to realise that I can live out of home if I have to (eg. when my parents move to Thailand next year, if I don’t go with them…)

Thanks mate – remember Dads do a lot around the home too, especially this one because he cooks and washes your clothes
Really? I thought mum did all that.
Yeah, Mum does most of it. Dad cooks the odd meal and sometimes puts the washing on since he’s home more now and I’m not home as much.
