I feel overwhelmed some days
I get up around 6:00 in the morning to work out. It's the only time I really can work out. Then I go about my day: get the kids ready for school, work at home (my 4 y.o is still with me), do the chores (vacuum, dust, laundry, blah blah blah-DH doesn't help much, and after 9 years of marriage I've given up on expecting help), kids come home, help with homework, make dinner, run kids to various activities (sports, Boy Scouts etc), work 2 nights a week (I work 2 jobs), get kids bathed and in bed, spend last 2 hours of day with DH. I never have any time for me, you know? It's difficult and frustrating at the same time. I know I'm going to get a slew of advice about DH helping out more, letting me go out, etc etc, but for us, for various reasons, it just doesn't work. Ive heard that same advice a million times, trust me. I'm just venting, because I'm so tired right now, and the house is a wreck, and my daughter is once again misbehaving, and I'm still not done painting the bathroom, and I have to go to work in an hour but I just want to curl up on the couch, and I just wish I had someone who understood.
