[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I forgot to mention that besides the 5 hour per week job, I also volunteer a ton at school and also at church.  At school i'm the room mother for both of my kids' classes, and I also volunteer once a week at school for both kids.  At church I'm a committee leader so I volunteer in that capacity.  However all my volunteering is maybe 5 hours a month total so not a whole lot.

Since my husband can't leave work for school events, i feel that i need to stick with working part-time so i can be there for my kids school and extra-curricular events--school parties, birthday celebrations at school, events where parents can come in, I chaperone field trips, etc.  My husband never has the opportunity to do any of these things.

However, I'm pretty bored at home and feel unfulfilled. Most of my day is filled with the drudgery of housework and chores.[/quote]

So hire a maid and a house manager (or one person who does both).  It sounds like you can afford it.  Then pick a hobby, like train for a marathon, or find a new way to volunteer, or something.  It's really not a hard problem to have.[/quote]
