[quote=Anonymous]Can totally relate to being a hamster on wheel. OP, what helped me was doing scheduled activities for myself. I took art classes, photography classes. I did better with having things that were scheduled because it cut out the guilt and the decision making when it was time to be somewhere. It does get so much better when the kids are older. My kids are now 9 and 12 and they are so much fun to be with so that's not the most laborious part of the day anymore- not like when they were toddlers. There are still the things that get in the way of life though- the housework, the dishes, etc. but your perspective does change. The kids don't really need me so much as I just now prefer to hang out with them than to escape to an art class. I've only got a little bit more time with my 12 year old before she decides she'd rather be hanging out with her friends than being at home. [/quote]
