[quote=Anonymous]OP, do you remember something taking a hit when you had kids? Your friendships/relationships, your exercise regime, your travel schedule, anything? Things change when your situation changes. First, don't be so hard on yourself. Second, you need some time to figure out your new normal. Figure out what things you can outsource (cleaning, yard work, groceries, etc.). Then figure out what you can do without (staying up until 11 to finish the new season of Top Chef, plans every weekend, etc.). You just have to find a new way to manage your time. And EVERYONE should be affected by this change, not just you. I don't know how old your kids are, so perhaps they can't actually help with anything, but your husband certainly should. Now you shouldn't be the only one cooking meals, dropping off the kids, etc. Give it some time and be kind to yourself. It will get better.[/quote]
