[quote=Anonymous]You could be burned out, or maybe you're just trying to do too much. There is no reason for all of you to go to the evening classes, unless that is something you enjoy. One of you can take the kids while the other one catches up on some home projects - cleaning up after dinner, laundry, vacuuming, whatever. Also, we only have activities twice a week (and one on the weekend) with our two kids, which leaves plenty of afternoons for home projects, or just hanging out at the pool, playing board games, whatever.

It also helps that I work 32 hours a week. At times that was 4 days in the office, and one day "off", which I spent doing all the errands and home chores that otherwise would have to get done on the weekends - but it freed up our weekends for fun stuff, daytrips, etc. Find the joy in your everyday life, even if it's a good book when you go to bed, or a weekend away you are looking forward to, or date night, or family game night, or whatever. The drudgery of the everydays is hard to keep up year after year without anything fun to look forward to, or any time to recharge. [/quote]
