I have younger kids and I work as a homemaking dad. My oldest child is a junior. My youngest daughter is 9. I worked 10 years in human services. My father helps watch the kids. My wife makes more money at her job. My children like to go shopping at Home Depot where my father used to be a manager. My wife and I can't retire for some time.
My kids are grown and I'm 60 years old. My two kids are good, one is a lawyer, the other is a carpenter. I work as a librarian and plan to retire soon. Being a librarian is great. I would be happy to help my grandkids when I get them. Although, I don't have FaceBook. I like to learn new things.
I finally got the new furniture that I have been waiting so long for. It is so nice and comfortable. That's terrific!  What did you get? Wayfair! It was a custom couch. It took so long because I chose the fabric, pattern, and style and they made it to order. It was definitely worth the wait!  That's great.  I bet it feels good to sink into that after a long day.  What color is it? It's a grey, deep seat sofa set. I will never go back from a deep seat! Explain to me what a deep seat is.  I haven't heard that term before, or if I have I didn't process it. The couch sits back further than a normal couch. It's almost twice the depth of an average couch. I highly recommend them!  It does sound relaxing.  The next time I'm looking to replace my couch I may need your guidance.  Our couch is probably about 25 years old.  It's been reupholstered once but that's it. Well, older furniture was built to last! Now-a-days, they fall apart after 5 years, if you're lucky! Yes, I do find that things seem to break more readily nowadays.  It's a disposable world.  What do you do most in your new couch?  Watch TV, read, take a nap? To be honest, My kids use it more than I do. But, when I do find time to relax, I like to read. The TV is usually occupied by my 9 year old. Yes, young ones do usually monopolize the screens.  What does your nine-year-old like to watch, not that I'd know any of the shows these days.
