To not enjoy the weekends

Posting here for traffic. It's not a real AIBU I guess but does anyone else feel the same? I'm a teacher working four days with two young kids. Husband pulls his weight but we have no other help as grandparents are too far away. I work my backside off in the week, running around after kids. Jobs like cleaning and general bits and bobs get out off until the weekend as I often have planning to do in the evenings. I just find that I look forward to the weekend but it's the same crap - cleaning, tidying, ironing and sorting out homework. Then I have to do my own work. Husband is grumpy as as he is exhausted too. I look forward to weekend but it just feels relentless and then it's Monday morning again.

Sorry for moaning as it's completely first world problems I know. I know I should plan things to do but I just don't. I suffer from anxiety and take anti depressants and I'm constantly tired. I'm just fed up.

Yeah. There's a thread about wanting to run away at the moment and the weekend is prime running away temptation time.

Good luck with this weekend op. I hope you manage to enjoy it and find some time to relax.
