Really struggling - vent

[dodge__driver11]

Take it from someone who knows--

THIS IS NOT EASY.

Some of the things I do to help with frustration/burn out are:

-at nap time no matter how hard little ones are screaming/crying I take time to come here for support...I have my cup of tea, and forget that my daycare is in operation.

-On days when I am having a very hard time mustering up the will to do dc we have a lot of outdoor play free reading and craft time, as well as some movie days, etc. Or sometime I call in my fill in and take a few hours to just do whatever...

I know daycare can be a bit of a fin. burden, so you know what I cut back on the things that were nice to have...

-We now have netflix, and I download and or watch my shows online
-I shop on clearance racks more often
-I am okay with buying some things at value village, and sally ann

Never feel trapped this is the best decision that you made. Now that I have had a taste of being my own boss I would never do it any other way....My son would rather his mom be here for him, and I'd rather be the one to see his milestones.

Chin up Dragon!
