[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would the pay at these new jobs for you make up the salary for a nanny or live-in help? Or are any of the jobs more flexible (since your last one wasnt) to allow for you to take DC to medical appts?[/quote] Op here. We have a full time nanny and my mother lives in an ADU on our property. The new jobs are not flexible. My old job is not flexible. I know the obvious solution is for me to make a boat load of money and outsource our life. But overseeing and coordinating all the outsourcing is also a huge task. I just simply can’t do it anymore. I tried. I have been drugging myself up every morning on adderall, Prozac, and Wellbutrin to drag myself through my day for years now. It got too hard and complex for me too. [/quote] Wait what? Two additional adults and you work part time and you're still overwhelmed? I don't get it. I think you need to get your meds evaluated.[/quote] I think she's saying she would be overwhelmed working the big job again but the family finances are not in good shape with her part time work. Her child has severe medical needs. You can't send a kid in for surgery and related appointments with a nanny even grandma. And the other parent is no help. No wonder OP is a wreck. [/quote]
