A vacation is not a vacation anymore as a working parent. I have to line all the work up ahead of time In my job which means a week of overwork, prep/pack everything, figure out and plan for every contingency (including if someone gets sick with COVID or something else), get bothered on vacation with work (which I ignore but then it piles up), then parent two kids on vacation which just means maybe a few hours at the beach and cooking all meals for the week in a different less equipped kitchen, and then deal with hundreds plus emails and tons of work once back, etc. maybe it will be different when the kids aren’t little but right now it’s just so hard. Work just feels unrelenting, it never ends and just sucks the life out of me and will take every thing I possibly have and then more. My kids feel the same way. So does my home, and my partner. Everyone just wants more and more from me. The pandemic has broken me down and I have nothing left.
New job and all-inclusive resort. Simple.
