Is decision making fatigue a thing? If it is, I am so worn out by it.
I have a lovely DP and 2 Y/O DS. Both DP and I work full time and I do shift work so some weekends. Time off together feels pretty precious because of this and we try to go for long walks, to soft play centres, art galleries, museums, toddler classes, gardens and loads more. All of these are constantly my idea.
My DP knows this is an issue for me as it's tiring always doing the boring day to day planning like - meals, childcare, housework etc. I have explained and generally he will away find us something to do the the first week I have mentioned how I'm feeling. After this it stops and it's back over to me. I asked earlier what he fancied doing tomorrow and he said 'erm, well we need some kitchen foil so maybe a drive and supermarket' It just feels a total lack of imagination and it's exhausting.
I'm happy to relax for some of the day but honestly, our little one is such a good sleeper that we always manage a good night's rest and a decent break in the day during nap time so it'd be great to really make the most of this time together.
Maybe it's because it's getting late, but just writing all of this is so depressing. Do you ever feel like this?
