My children deserve better

I have 2 DC aged 5 and 1.5 , I also work full time at home due to Covid in a very busy role. We don’t have any family locally so we haven’t been really socialising much. I do have friends but if they are a family of 3 or 4 we’re restricted due to the rule of 6. We’re also trying to sell our house so it has been an added stress of trying to maintain a somewhat presentable home ready for viewings etc. I took this week off work but been really busy cleaning and tidying up so didn’t really get to go out much with DC. The weather has been pants so outdoor days out have been difficult, we aren’t doing soft play at the moment as DH isn’t comfortable with the idea but they did go to a museum so that was something. I’ve been feeling irrationally jealous of people putting up photos of days out with other family/friends with their DC dressed up in Halloween costumes and having fun in general. My DCs are happy but I feel like the worst parent as I’m constantly on the edge worried about work , the house, food etc. My DH pulls in his weight but I think it’s the feeling that they deserve more than this. Reducing my hours isn’t an option for the time being as there’s no else to cover my role. Typing this is the only outlet I have no one to confide in really.
