I work ft, long-ish commute (bit over an hour each way). My life just feels like an endless treadmill...get up at 6ish, go to gym, then to work. Am there til 6-7, then home. Make myself dinner (normally a sandwich or beans on toast etc unless my teen DC haven't eaten in which case I try and make something more substantial for them) chat to DC. Put some washing on, flop in front of tv, am normally ready for bed by 10.30.
Weekends are busy too. Eow I spend the weekend at my bf (not sure he's quite able to be called DP yet), on the weekends I am at home it's gym/housework/laundry/stuff with DC on Sat, Suns more of the same til late afternoon when I go up to bf's house.
I just never seem to have any time. I rarely get a lunch hour as work is so busy, if I do it's spent running urgent errands. I've got loads of jobs I need to do at home but I can never get round to them. I thought once my DC were older I'd have more time (somehow!) but if anything I have less.
Is it just me? How do you make more time? I can't change my job or commute anytime soon, is there anything else I can do though?
