[quote=Anonymous]Dad of 3 writing this.  Single-income family, for now.  I feel these days like my life has become a blur, every day is a cookie-cutter routine, and I really have no ability to focus on anything on a regular basis that is not (a) my family or (b) my job.

I have a great job, and a flexible schedule, and earn enough so DW need not work right now (mind you I'm not wearing a monocle and lighting cigars with $100 bills though), and a great home I spent over 10 years building just the way we wanted.  And now I'm 36 and feeling stressed about I-dont-know-what.  I'll have some indigestion and then be convinced I'm dying.

I have (not horrible) low back pain, and know that swimming will help me feel better but can't carve an hour out every other day because I feel guilty leaving my wife with 3 kids (although, honestly, the 2 youngest ones are twins about 1YO that kind of entertain themselves pretty well).  It seems like there is always something interestng or beneficial going on somewhere but things are impossible to do, everything takes time away from something else.  I'm not one of these people who goes about spouting "i'm so busy," because I really don't do [i]anything[/i], and yet we have no ability to carve out time for other things.

Anyone else ever feel like this?[/quote]
