Exhausted pandemic

Anyone else just exhausted after the whole thing? And it's not even over yet.

I live in Wales and have two young children.

Between our school shutting in December with staff off with covid, not knowing when it would open again. To shutting early before Christmas...to open late to plan for similar situations in the next term. To Christmas. To feeling pressured to spend money we don't want to spend or have on Christmas presents. To kids finding it difficult to manage a change of routine after time off. To older relatives not understanding why we're so tired. To managing a part time job and people thinking you should go full time when they're in school. To arguing with my husband because we're so tired. To Wales easing restrictions just in time for the rugby. To loving my children and want the very best for them.

I hear you op.
Life is bloody hard at the moment for a lot of people and it is just relentless.

I'm not sure I understand. Why is Wales easing restrictions in time for the rugby exhausting?
And also, what has working part time with young children got to do with the pandemic?
Or Christmas financial pressures- again not pandemic related (unless you are going to tell us you lost your job because of Covid) These things are a normal part of parenting aren't they?
