I used to be live for new experiences, make the most of my free time, constantly planning holidays to see different parts of the world. Now in my 30s with 3 DC (3-7) i feel like I am going through life wishing the days away until it gets easier. I work full time, DH works hard, totally useless around the house though and it is the cause of 99% of arguements. I seem to live day to day feeling stressed, surviving each day, getting through work to come home, cook, clean, separate DCs bickering x a million and then the dreaded bedtime, DC 7 y/o is naughty beyond belief. I feel like is this it?? Is this life now - muddling along. I can spend time with friends but its constant DC chit chatter like nothing else is happening in the world. I think if i could get in a state of being grateful for what i have it would give me a better outlook (ps, i am overall grateful but on a day to day basis i dont feel i appreciate anything if that makes sense). Need to vent, with a big sigh
