[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's really hard! Especially because once you get pretty good at it, he comes home (which is awesome but also ironic).

Accept that you are just kind of always moving (other than when you are staring at your phone in bed at midnight, even though you should be sleeping but need some "me time" haha). And I highly recommend Trader Joe's frozen section. Reasonably healthy options and super easy to make. Also, I actually save money using Amazon Fresh...even with the fee. It really helps you to comparison shop so much better than wandering around the grocery store while exhausted and often hungry!You can often get it delivered same-day or next day.

When you're with your kids, try to enjoy them--laugh when they're funny, keep a mental list of things they do that you can look forward to sharing with your husband when you talk to him, give and get as much affection as you can--you are all in this together. Good luck! [/quote]

Do you mind sharing what you get at Trader Joe’s? I kept hearing about the Mandarin Chicken (was too grisly for us) and the Chimichurri rice (too much sodium... like 58%! so I didn’t buy). [/quote]
