I found that my previous job, although mentally stressful, was more physically demanding. Now, I find by the end of the day my mind is mush. You spend all day on high alert, dealing with challenges etc. Also, although I am actually making slightly more now (fracturing in we no longer have to pay out for childcare), I do still get stressed about finances (moreso, the worry about 'what if my spaces aren't full someday), but slowly we are building up a savings account to cover that. I also had these visions of getting so much done, having a perfectly organized, immaculate home...ha ha. I actually did the first few months...but was exhausted. Now I chill during naptime, make sure the main living areas are neat and tidy & leave the rest to the weekends. As well, being home 24/7 with a demanding, busy, loud (sweet, intelligent, kind) soon to be 3 year old stresses me out; but big slobbery kisses cure that most days![]()
