Lots of hugs to you. You need a break. Maybe this Friday night you can do something romantic? It's hard keeping kids entertained. Seriously, I'm calmer at work all day, than when I get home. It's a chaos. Laundry everywhere, kids and dogs everywhere and a husband...lol. Not even talking about getting any time together. We don't have family here that could take the kids for a while.

Just take a deep breath and try to get some "ME" time.

I'm sorry you're feeling so stuck...I don't have any kids, but I am sure being a mom is one of the toughest jobs there is...and you're on duty 24/7. Try not to feel guilty for wanting and needing some "alone time"...you spend so much time and energy on your kids that your own needs seem to be left unmet. I wish I had more advice...but you can know that you deserve any help you are given (and more), and it is perfectly all right to take at least a few minutes to catch your breath and get some time for you.

I agree with everyone else so far, in that you CANNOT beat yourself up for wanting some "alone time".
