I have discovered that I have grossly underestimated the effort required just to stay on top of laundry, dishes, and feeding everyone...
@PrivacyL0st SO MUCH ADULTING
@Beanc my wife has been "stay at home" since about a year before we adopted our oldest. While I was certainly never a 'thats not my job' partner, and I always contributed to keeping the house as well, I never realized all she was doing that I either didn't notice or just took for granted. I'm not even doing everything that needs to get done, and my kids have been quick to remind me "that's not how Mom does it" at every turn, and I'm exhausted. I have no idea how she does all she does...
@PrivacyL0st ☹️
@Beanc what's worse is she keeps telling me I'm doing fine and all I can think about is how I haven't done nearly enough - for years...
@PrivacyL0st hey, it’s never too late to do better.
And maybe to buy her a spa day or something 😅
@Beanc she makes it to the other side of this and she gets all the spa days she wants - forever.
@PrivacyL0st
Adulting is exhausting!
