I haven't posted in a while, but been reading along. I've been feeling pretty down and also really busy. On one hand I'm really enjoying all the time I have with the kids at the moment, but also realizing that such a (near) complete division of labor really doesn't work well for our family. I need to get a job and DH needs to be able to work less and spend more time with the kids. So I really need to finish my PhD and get that job, but progress is really slow at the moment (what with all the time with the kids...). Trying to enjoy the present and all the time I have with them now and trust that things will come good soon(ish).
Good to hear from you nyigi. I think often it isn't obvious what solution is the best for a family until you try a few things and work out what doesn't work. I am not sure the situation we will have in a few weeks is what I would have thought best 5 years ago - and maybe it won't work forever.
DH got the job he was after, so he starts a week on Monday, I start new job week after and our crazy neighbours (who some of you might remember) looks like they have moved out - so has been a great week, and is DS birthday tomorrow. Next week need to sort out the extra day for DS but I am sure something will fall into place for that.
