[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't totally relate because I have the job and two kids but not the household help. But: [b]What is it you wish you had more time to do? [/b]My kids are slightly older than yours and by now I've figured out that as long as I can do certain things--in my case, exercise, work in the garden, cook, have friends over for dinner--regularly, I stay happy. It's much easier to fit these things in on the weekends, but I do manage to run and cook during the week.

That said, my husband is a great companion and my kids bring me joy like nothing ever has in life. It doesn't sound like you are there yet. You might want to consider counseling, and I don't say that flippantly. If I didn't relish my family time, these family centric days would be tough. [/quote]

This.  Figure out what would make you happier, and then sacrifice other things to get the time to do it.  Don't say yes to every holiday or party.  It's okay if you're family is mad sometimes.  Maybe you could drop one workout a week and use that time to do something you miss.  You prioritize and you learn to stop saying yes to everything just because you feel like you're supposed to.
