How not to hate egg

[lippyberd]

I've wfh for four years and now I hate the sight of my house. Can't get another job due to school runs, flexible working and the wages locally are about £10k less min for similar role.
I can get out for a walk at lunchtime if it's not raining..but it usually fucking is.
By the time DS and DH come home it's tea, dog walk and bedtime with little time to go out (then more rain and it's dark so can't go out for a walk again).
It's really impacting my mental health.
Can't do shared office due to confidentiality and no local office ( nearest two hours).
Any suggestions? It's a rock and a hard place.

Could you maybe get a cleaner and/or dogwalker so you don't have to do so much? You sound exhausted. Then maybe you would have time to take up something locally which would be sociable?

That sounds like my idea of hell! I don't want to 'hyper-focus', I want to be able to talk to colleagues, discuss any issues with them face to face rather than on Teams.
