[quote=Anonymous]Consider going back to work at least with reduced hours, if not full time, and hiring a nanny for your kids. You can have her handle the 2yo appointments, do the kids' meal prep and laundry, and tidy up after them. You might be happier and enjoy the time you do get with your kids a lot more. I've a friend whose husband who travels internationally for work all the time, and is sometimes gone for 2-week stretches. She too works full time, but has very little travel. They have a nanny who works from 7-6:30, and 2 kids in half-day preschool. When the kids are in school or napping the nanny cooks, does laundry, tidies up etc. She gives them lunch, takes them to afternoon activities, and gives them dinner, and by the time SIL is back from work all she needs to do is bath/ bedtime stories etc. [/quote]
