And - I'm ok with this. Was just looking for help from those with experience---and my situation (not ever having an identity) may require some professional help.......

I do read when I can (but haven't in forever). I have been exercising religously since the beginning of December. My day starts at 5 - so I can exercise, do a load of laundry, make breakfast, make lunches for me and the kids and feed the dog. Except for Tuesday and Wednesday mornings (when H takes the kids to school), I take the kids to school and go to work (I work at the school) at 8.

I work until 4:30 (I post at work - which I need to stop). I take daughter to sb practice on Mondays (H takes son to baseball), both daughters on Wednesdays. Practice is from 6-8. I usually do my grocery shopping during this time. Sometimes there is something I have to run a kid to on Tuesdays (last night it was D13 to get her nails done - which I gladly did - big dance Friday night). And yes, it was H's night, but she wanted me to take her (would just be weird to have dad at the nail salon she said). I would have had mine done - but did that last week when I had Tuesday free---I do take time to do "things" for me-----but the bigger problem is the bigger issue (above).

Thursday - son has baseball practice. Friday - this time of year is usually free or the first tournament game. Last week I mowed when son was at baseball on Thursday(practice was close) - because games started Friday and the weekend was FULL of games. When the yard needs mowed twice a week....there may be a problem.

My evenings (on practice nights start at 9) - I feed the rest of the animals, more laundry, iron my clothes for the next day (except on rare occasions I have done some ahead of time). On practice nights (unfortuanately) it is usually fast food meals on the way home (Thank goodness for Jimmie Johns Veggie sandwich). Sometimes I get a meal cooked early, but lately things have been too crazy. I definitely cook on Fridays (when I have the kids) and every Sunday.

Last night after taking D to get her nails done, I got home at 8. I had an avocado, chips and wine for dinner (how awful was that!) and got in the hot tub---which two weeks ago I drained, cleaned out and refilled so would be ready for spring ----(naked) by myself. Like I said.....I probably need professional help.
