[quote=Anonymous]OP, I was you. Exactly you. When we ditched the nanny I outsourced more. Started grocery delivery (life changing), went to a weekly housecleaner, outsourced yard care. That gave me my weekends, mostly. I developed a routine of very quick and easy weeknight dinners. I kept up with the laundry all week so that it wasn't piling up for the weekend and did all folding and putting away Saturday mornings. One day a week, I got a sitter that could pick my kids up so that I at least had one day a week when I knew I wasn't under the gun and could stay at work. I really developed a network of sitters at that point too. Made sure I had a few I could call to cover things. My husband at that point traveled a lot. Good luck. It does get easier when they are older. [/quote]
