I found myself in a similar situation to yours... and then had a second child. If I had the time to track it, I'm sure the results would not be much better. After that much needed wake up call, what did you end up doing?
- treeman79 6y agoI did less. Changed jobs. Freed up 3 hours of commuting a day. Wife wasn’t pulling weight with errands. She refused to drive. So that needed fixing. Stop having to go to grocery store every single day. Organize house a lot better. Lots of time wasted looking for clothes. Get rid of anything not nailed down.
- redisman 6y agoLower your standards for everything. Work, cleanliness, relationships, hobbies. Try to get to a point where you do housework while the kiddo is awake and entertaining themselves. Some medium term planning helps. Cooking enough for 2-3 meals at a time so you don’t do it everyday. I used a meal plan that told me the groceries to get. Think of some other “life hacks” or corners you can cut for things you do a lot. Take some time for self care.
