Ok, so I guess for you to fully understand my confusion, I should tell you a little about my self and my story. I am 23 years old, married just shy of 3 years, have a 2 year old boy and we're currently TTC one more. I work full time 2nd shift as a CNA on an alzheimer's unit. I enjoy my job, I enjoy my family.
Lately, I've been struggling balancing everything. My job is stressful, even though I enjoy it very much and have a calling for my field. My son is healthy, fed, loved, smart and very happy. He goes to a daycare where he can play with other children, which is something he wouldn't necessarily be able to do otherwise considering I relocated 2 hours away from my family to be with my husband, I don't really have many friends, since most ladies my age aren't in the same life stage as myself.
How do you balance all of your responsibilties? I worry that I am not spending enough time at home, I struggle to keep the house clean, and cooking is something that rarely gets done. the microwave and toaster are my best friends rightnow. I feel like my son, my job, and my husband require so much of my time right now that i just don't time for the housework. my husband use to help with these things a lot more, but he is currently working full time and going to school part time. I would like to be able to go down to part time work to be able to have more time at home, but i would lose my insurance and i have my son and myself on that. *sigh* i just pray that something happens soon....
