[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two kids, ages 6&3.

Wake up at 630. Get ready and make breakfast for everyone.

Dress 3 year old and get them to the table for breakfast between 715-745. Leave with 3 year old for daycare for 815 drop off.

Come back home and prep 6 year old for virtual kindergarten school start at 900. Work with her in the same room until school is over at 230. She goes off somewhere and plays while I work until 445 (what she does during this time is mostly a mystery to me. This week she shampooed and conditioned all of her stuffed animals’ fur).  Go and pick up 3 year old at daycare at 5.

Throw food at their faces for dinner.

Bedtime and associated activities between 730 and 800 PM

Collapse in a heap, but not before cleaning up any emails from the day since I’m really only working from about 9 until 445 with numerous disruptions.

It’s been mostly fine (and I have a helpful spouse who also works full time), but I’m nearing the end of my sanity [/quote]

Because of COVID or even before?[/quote]

I definitely wasn’t grateful enough for my life before covid. Both kids had daycare in the building where I worked, so I’d drop them off and go upstairs to my office. Now it’s the constant disruptions to routine that are killing me. Daycare was closed for 4+ months over the past year and virtual school for a kindergarten kid has been a really hard adjustment. We do the best we can though. [/quote]
