Work life is not easy for a mum

I fully understand how a working mother life routine now. To me after experiencing it almost a week, I don't have any time for the house chore, don't say time for myself. Everyday after work, dinner at my parent's home and reach home already 9pm+. Terry is time to sleep also and I got to clean him and feed milk. Later, dump the clothes to machine, pack things for the next day, wash this and that, fold/hang clothes, bath myself, sweep a lil bit and etc.. I have no time to sit down in front of TV and only can go to bed at 11pm+. The next day wake up as early as 5.30am.

Everyday, things have become so rush and many things to remind and remember. I was little upset that this morning, it was already late. I was so rush out the house as early as possible. Both hands hanging full brought things down to the car, later only recall that I forgot to bring down Terry's shoe. So, I ran back to the house and took it. Later, when I hand over Terry to my mum at a meeting point, I forgot to pass Terry's clothes for him used in daycare.

It is really so stress to work and at the same time to take care of home things and kids. Man can back home, bath and lied flat infront of TV and we mummy has to continue to busy and busy. These few days, hubby not even offer some help to Terry or the house, everything is wait for me to handle. I couldn't cope with all handle alone. Thats why this morning, forget things....hai...faster next Monday come...

Work in office have been so hectic too...not to mention...I need to slowly pick up what I have done here before Terry was born. So far still ok, got to start slow and work slow a little bit.

hey lemonjude, take things easy. i'm also thinking of going back to work. afterall, women have to be independent, at least financially rite? think of the good points of working!

just tell your hubby to help out! i'm sure he'll understand.=)
