[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I absolutely cannot handle staying home all day with my children more than one day at a time (I have a 3yo and 1yo).  It’s insane the amount of chaos they can generate especially when they don’t have any time to really run around.  We go out every day, often twice a day, sometimes three times.  Usually it’s just to the playground across the street or to the park with bubbles — something really low stress for me — but it’s absolutely necessary for my sanity.

That being said, I think feeling like you can’t keep up and your plate is just a bit overfull is just like with little kids?  At least I absolutely feel that’s way too.  But my kids are wonderful and healthy and thriving even if my housekeeping is a little slapdash sometimes so I choose to believe it’ll be okay.  I also want to acknowledge that’s it’s REALLY rough to not have a break (I’m the opposite schedule as you — work 5 days a week, full time solo parent on the weekend) and that doesn’t help with feeling like you have things under control.  You sound like you’re doing great, OP![/quote]

Op here. Thanks. I think the hardest is not having breaks from cooking. [/quote]
