[quote=Anonymous]I work an 8-hour day. Husband works from home and takes care of our 15-month-old. He also cleans (he likes doing it) and does the dishes. Our 4.5-year-old is in preschool.

When I come home (around 6:30, after an hour-long commute), I cook dinner, we eat, go for a 30-min walk with the kids. By the time we return, it's 8:30, and I am exhausted. The kids take a bath 2x a week, if they are lucky (we wash the private parts every day). Sometimes we do some workbooks with the 4.5-y-o that she loves, and we alternate nights reading to her while the other watches the baby. After the kids are asleep (between 9:30-10), I study (I'm in grad school) and help husband with his business (I love doing both, it's not a chore). We go to bed after midnight and wake up at 6:30 am.

My question is, how can I do all of the above and have energy)? Most of the time, I am on autopilot with my energy down to the lovest level. We can't skip dinner, walk  (my only excercise) or reading (bonding time). Working Moms, how do you do it? [/quote]
